Orchestra Played

Famous quotes containing the words orchestra and/or played:

    “Pop” Wyman ruled here with a firm but gentle hand; no drunken man was ever served at the bar; no married man was allowed to play at the tables; across the face of the large clock was written “Please Don’t Swear,” and over the orchestra appeared the gentle admonition, “Don’t Shoot the Pianist—He’s Doing His Damndest.”

    You have seen
    Sunshine and rain at once; her smiles and tears
    Were like a better way: those happy smilets
    That played on her ripe lip seemed not to know
    What guests were in her eyes, which parted thence
    As pearls from diamonds dropped.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
