Piano Part

Famous quotes containing the words piano and/or part:

    It is not always possible to predict the response of a doting Jewish mother. Witness the occasion on which the late piano virtuoso Oscar Levant telephoned his mother with some important news. He had proposed to his beloved and been accepted. Replied Mother Levant: “Good, Oscar, I’m happy to hear it. But did you practice today?”
    Liz Smith (20th century)

    Now we are part of the world, and the world is part of us. If any part suffers, all suffer. If any part loses freedom, all will lose it.
    —Michael Blankfort. Lewis Milestone. Dickerman (Jack Webb)
