Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or opera:

    “But while meditating
    What we can’t or can
    Let’s keep starring man
    In the royal role.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Opera once was an important social instrument—especially in Italy. With Rossini and Verdi people were listening to opera together and having the same catharsis with the same story, the same moral dilemmas. They were holding hands in the darkness. That has gone. Now perhaps they are holding hands watching television.”
    —Luciano Berio (b. 1925)
