Cab Calloway Quotes
"What opera isn't violent? Two things happen, violence and love. And other than that, name something else. You can't." - Cab Calloway
Cab Calloway Quotes
"It's very difficult to photograph an opera. And they messed up on it. It just wasn't there. And I don't blame the Gershwins for taking it away. Of course, if they had gotten the original company to have done it, it would have been very good." - Cab Calloway
Cab Calloway Quotes
"I think it was just an opera. Now, you go to opera, you expect to see and hear what the opera is. So, it was Catfish Row. It was singers. Marvelous voices. It didn't make no difference what color they were." - Cab Calloway
