Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or theater:

    “Through man, and woman, and sea, and star,
    Saw the dance of nature forward far;
    Through worlds, and races, and terms, and times,
    Saw musical order, and pairing rhymes.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I want to give the audience a hint of a scene. No more than that. Give them too much and they won’t contribute anything themselves. Give them just a suggestion and you get them working with you. That’s what gives the theater meaning: when it becomes a social act.”
    —Orson Welles (1915–1984)
