Generate numbers from normal distribution

I know that if I want to generate for example 120 numbers from normal distribution with mean 30 and standard deviation 20 i can do it by command : 

x=rnorm(120,30,20)

But what if I want to generate 100 times 120 numbers from above normal distribution ?

Do we have in R any function to do this directly ?

As proposed by @duckmayr

replicate(100, rnorm(120, 30, 20), simplify = TRUE) # if you want to generate a matrix

replicate(100, rnorm(120, 30, 20), simplify = FALSE) # if you want to generate a list
