Silent Era

Famous quotes containing the words silent and/or era:

    Great things demand that we either remain silent about them or speak in a great manner: in a great manner, that is—cynically and with innocence.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    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 they’ll 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)
