Famous quotes containing the words state and/or opera:

    “The State is to make what is useful. The individual is to make what is beautiful.”
    —Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    “I have witnessed, and greatly enjoyed, the first act of everything which Wagner created, but the effect on me has always been so powerful that one act was quite sufficient; whenever I have witnessed two acts I have gone away physically exhausted; and whenever I have ventured an entire opera the result has been the next thing to suicide.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
