Ovation Quotes

Standing ovations have become far too commonplace. What we need are ovations where the audience members all punch and kick one another. George Carlin
The truth is that the heroism of your childhood entertainments was not true valor. It was theatre. The grand gesture, the moment of choice, the mortal danger, the external foe, the climactic battle whose outcome resolves all--all designed to appear heroic, to excite and gratify and audience.

Here is the truth--actual heroism receives no ovation, entertains no... David Foster Wallace

Applause that comes thundering with such force you might think the audience merely suffers the music as an excuse for its ovations. Alfred Jarry
I was blown away by the standing ovation. I've had tributes before, sure, but I don't retain that feeling, and I wasn't prepared for it on Tuesday. But maybe you shouldn't retain these things or you'd be on a permanent high. Burt Bacharach
