Famous quotes containing the words music and/or theatre:
“If music be the food of love, play on,
Give me excess of it that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken and so die.”

“The poem of the mind in the act of finding
What will suffice. It has not always had
To find: the scene was set; it repeated what
Was in the script.
Then the theatre was changed
To something else. Its past was a souvenir.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
