Idol Worship

Famous quotes containing the words idol and/or worship:

    “Its idea of “production value” is spending a million dollars dressing up a story that any good writer would throw away. Its vision of the rewarding movie is a vehicle for some glamour-puss with two expressions and eighteen changes of costume, or for some male idol of the muddled millions with a permanent hangover, six worn-out acting tricks, the build of a lifeguard, and the mentality of a chicken-strangler.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    “You don’t know what you might be if you would look beyond the ball, the opera, the fashion-plate—and right over the heads of the perfumed, mustached bipeds who call themselves men and worship at your feet.”
    —Mattie Chappelle, U.S. women’s magazine contributor. The Revolution (April 28, 1870)
