Famous quotes containing the words southern, film and/or festival:

    “I prefer to make no new declarations [on southern policy beyond what was in the Letter of Acceptance]. But you may say, if you deem it advisable, that you know that I will stand by the friendly and encouraging words of that Letter, and by all that they imply. You cannot express that too strongly.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “All the old supports going, gone, this man reaches out a hand to steady himself on a ledge of rough brick that is warm in the sun: his hand feeds him messages of solidity, but his mind messages of destruction, for this breathing substance, made of earth, will be a dance of atoms, he knows it, his intelligence tells him so: there will soon be war, he is in the middle of war, where he stands will be a waste, mounds of rubble, and this solid earthy substance will be a film of dust on ruins.”
    —Doris Lessing (b. 1919)

    “The surest guide to the correctness of the path that women take is joy in the struggle. Revolution is the festival of the oppressed.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
