The people are unreal. The flowers are unreal, they dont smell. The food is unreal, it doesnt taste of anything. The whole place is a glaring, gaudy, nightmarish set, built up in the desert. – Ethel Barrymore
When life knocks you to your knees, and it will, why, get up! If it knocks you to your knees again, as it will, well, isnt that the best position from which to pray? – Ethel Barrymore
You grow up on the day you have your first real laugh at, yourself. – Ethel Barrymore
The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesnt. – Jean-Luc Godard
When we were growing up and saw a Ray Harryhausen movie, we were interested in how it was done. But thank God we got to go through the magic of seeing it before we knew how it was done. You were able to get this beautiful, pure, visceral response to something without knowing too much about it. – Tim Burton
