Famous quotes containing the words billy and/or chandler:

    “Although I’d lie lapped up in linen
    A deal I’d sweat and little earn
    If I should live as live the neighbours,”
    Cried the beggar, Billy Byrne....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The motion picture is like a picture of a lady in a half- piece bathing suit. If she wore a few more clothes, you might be intrigued. If she wore no clothes at all, you might be shocked. But the way it is, you are occupied with noticing that her knees are too bony and that her toenails are too large. The modern film tries too hard to be real. Its techniques of illusion are so perfect that it requires no contribution from the audience but a mouthful of popcorn.
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
