Famous quotes containing the words live and/or performances:

    Thousands of geniuses live and die undiscovered—either by themselves or by others.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    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)
