    —Anne Roiphe (20th century)

    “John Brown’s career for the last six weeks of his life was meteor-like, flashing through the darkness in which we live. I know of nothing so miraculous in our history.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Film is more than the twentieth-century art. It’s another part of the twentieth-century mind. It’s the world seen from inside. We’ve come to a certain point in the history of film. If a thing can be filmed, the film is implied in the thing itself. This is where we are. The twentieth century is on film.... You have to ask yourself if there’s anything about us more important than the fact that we’re constantly on film, constantly watching ourselves.”
    —Don Delillo (b. 1926)

    “Man alone resists the direction of gravitation: he constantly wants to fall—upwards.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
