Opera Windows

Famous quotes containing the words opera and/or windows:

“The opera house sparkled with tiers
And tiers of eyes, like mine enlarged by belladonna,”

dully in the vast side
of greater-than-palace number such-and-such
one burns
these several years, each night
as if the room within were aflame.”
