Famous quotes containing the words modern, day and/or mentioned:
“The experience of the gangster as an experience of art is universal to Americans. There is almost nothing we understand better or react to more readily or with quicker intelligence.... In ways that we do not easily or willingly define, the gangster speaks for us, expressing that part of the American psyche which rejects the qualities and the demands of modern life, which rejects Americanism itself.”
—Robert Warshow (19171955)
“He wrote me sad Mothers Day stories. Hed always kill me in the stories and tell me how bad he felt about it. It was enough to bring a tear to a mothers eye.”
—Connie Zastoupil, U.S. mother of Quentin Tarantino, director of film Pulp Fiction. Rolling Stone, p. 76 (December 29, 1994)
“But fornication and impurity of any kind, or greed, must not even be mentioned among you, as is proper among saints. Entirely out of place is obscene, silly, and vulgar talk; but instead, let there be thanksgiving.”
—Bible: New Testament, Ephesians 5:3-4.
