Queensland Youth Symphony

Famous quotes containing the words youth and/or symphony:

    After all, life hasn’t much to offer except youth and I suppose for older people the love of youth in others.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    The truth is, as every one knows, that the great artists of the world are never Puritans, and seldom even ordinarily respectable. No virtuous man—that is, virtuous in the Y.M.C.A. sense—has ever painted a picture worth looking at, or written a symphony worth hearing, or a book worth reading, and it is highly improbable that the thing has ever been done by a virtuous woman.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
