I think opera has gained a kind of glamorous appeal. It's a live performance that aligns all of the arts, and when it is represented in the media, in film in particular, it is presented as something that is really a special event, whether it's a great date or something that's just hugely romantic.

I've always been inspired by artists who have shown musical and intellectual curiosity and the courage to take risks. Renee Fleming Courage
Everybody's a work in progress. I'm a work in progress. I mean, I've never arrived... I'm still learning all the time. Renee Fleming Learning
