“If you have to be in a soap opera try not to get the worst role.”
Judy Garland
“There's no half-singing in the shower, you're either a rock star or an opera diva.”
Josh Groban
“The taxpayers cannot be relied upon to support performing arts such as opera. As a taxpayer, I am forced to admit that I would rather undergo a vasectomy via Weed Whacker than attend an opera.”
Dave Barry
“He rides in the row at ten o clock in the morning, goes to the Opera three times a week, changes his clothes at least five times a day, and dines out every night of the season. You don't call that leading an idle life, do you?”
Oscar Wilde
“An opera begins long before the curtain goes up and ends long after it has come down. It starts in my imagination, it becomes my life, and it stays part of my life long after I've left the opera house.”
Maria Callas
“If an opera cannot be played by an organ grinder, it's not going to achieve immortality.”
Sir Thomas Beecham
“I'd like to see a nude opera, because when they hit those high notes, I bet you can really see it in those genitals”
