“Of course, in a sense, all opera is absurd.”
― The Beloved Vision: A History of Nineteenth Century Music
― The Beloved Vision: A History of Nineteenth Century Music
“My mind has touched the farthest horizons of mortal imagination and reaches ever outward to embrace infinity. There is no knowledge beyond my comprehension, no art or skill upon this entire planet that lies beyond the mastery of my hand. And yet, like Faust, I look in vain, I learn in vain. . . . For as long as I live, no woman will ever look on me in love.”
