Gave Concerts

Famous quotes containing the words gave and/or concerts:

    I gave up my shame,
    lost my virginity
    and became notorious
    for his sake.
    Dear Friend,
    this same man
    has now become
    a complete stranger.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    If you love music, hear it; go to operas, concerts and pay fiddlers to play to you; but I insist on your neither piping nor fiddling yourself. It puts a gentleman in a very frivolous, contemptible light.... Few things would mortify me more than to see you bearing a part in a concert, with a fiddle under your chin, or a pipe in your mouth.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
