Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or era:
“Anne: He hit me, Jack. My own brother, he hit me.
Jack: Your brothers an old-fashioned man, he believes in a sisters honor. Me, Im Modern Man, the 20th-century type. I run.”
—Robert Rossen (19081966)
“It struck me that the movies had spent more than half a century saying, They lived happily ever after and the following quarter-century warning that theyll be lucky to make it through the weekend. Possibly now we are now entering a third era in which the movies will be sounding a note of cautious optimism: You know it just might work.”
—Nora Ephron (b. 1941)
