Warren Opera House

Famous quotes containing the words warren, opera and/or house:

    The oaks, how subtle and marine!
    Bearded, and all the layered light
    Above them swims; and thus the scene,
    Recessed, awaits the positive night.
    —Robert Penn Warren (1905–1989)

    I have witnessed, and greatly enjoyed, the first act of everything which Wagner created, but the effect on me has always been so powerful that one act was quite sufficient; whenever I have witnessed two acts I have gone away physically exhausted; and whenever I have ventured an entire opera the result has been the next thing to suicide.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Mothers of America
    let your kids go to the movies!
    get them out of the house so they won’t know what you’re up to
    it’s true that fresh air is good for the body
    but what about the soul
    that grows in darkness, embossed by silvery images
    Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)
