Command Performances

Famous quotes containing the words command and/or performances:

“I, who should command a regiment,
Do amble amiably here, O God,
One of the neat ones in your awkward squad.”
—Norman Cameron (b. 1905)

“At one of the later performances you asked why they called it a “miracle,”
Since nothing ever happened. That, of course, was the miracle
But you wanted to know why so much action took on so much life
And still managed to remain itself, aloof, smiling and courteous.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
