Famous quotes containing the words public and/or speaking:
“Compare ... the cinema with theatre. Both are dramatic arts. Theatre brings actors before a public and every night during the season they re-enact the same drama. Deep in the nature of theatre is a sense of ritual. The cinema, by contrast, transports its audience individually, singly, out of the theatre towards the unknown.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
“Happy is the hearing man; unhappy the speaking man.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
