I love Italian opera -- its so reckless. Damn Wagner, and his bell

I love Italian opera — its so reckless. Damn Wagner, and his bellowings at Fate and death. Damn Debussy, and his averted face. I like the Italians who run all on impulse, and dont care about their immortal souls, and dont worry about the ultimate. – D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence
