Famous quotes containing the words current, composition and/or court:

    “Our current obsession with creativity is the result of our continued striving for immortality in an era when most people no longer believe in an after-life.”
    —Arianna Stassinopoulos (b. 1950)

    “Boswell, when he speaks of his Life of Johnson, calls it my magnum opus, but it may more properly be called his opera, for it is truly a composition founded on a true story, in which there is a hero with a number of subordinate characters, and an alternate succession of recitative and airs of various tone and effect, all however in delightful animation.”
    —James Boswell (1740–1795)

    “Rome, like Washington, is small enough, quiet enough, for strong personal intimacies; Rome, like Washington, has its democratic court and its entourage of diplomatic circle; Rome, like Washington, gives you plenty of time and plenty of sunlight. In New York we have annihilated both.”
    —M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)
