Famous quotes containing the words john and/or mauceri:

    There is nothing more agreeable in life than to make peace with the Establishment—and nothing more corrupting.
    —A.J.P. (Alan John Percivale)

    Whenever [Leonard Bernstein] entered or exited a country he would fill in on his passport form not composer or conductor, but musician. Of course people in the press spent a lot of Lenny’s life telling him what he should have done; he should have been a concert pianist, he should have composed more.... And people wouldn’t let him live his own life. But he created his own career, in his own image.
    —John Mauceri (b. 1945)
