Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or theater:

    “I think no woman I have had ever gave me so sweet a moment, or at so light a price, as the moment I owe to a newly heard musical phrase.”
    —Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)

    “The Miss America contest is ... the most perfectly rendered theater in our culture, for it so perfectly captures what we yearn for: a low-class ritual, a polished restatement of vulgarity, that wants to open the door to high-class respectability by way of plain middle-class anxiety and ambition.”
    —Gerald Early (b. 1952)
