Famous quotes containing the words animated, short, film and/or series:
“Uncle Ben’s brass bullet-mould
And powder horn, and Major Bogan’s face
Above the fire, in the half-light, plainly said
There’s naught to kill but the animated dead;”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“The telephone, which interrupts the most serious conversations and cuts short the most weighty observations, has a romance of its own.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
“Lay not that flattering unction to your soul,
That not your trespass but my madness speaks;
It will but skin and film the ulcerous place,
Whilst rank corruption, mining all within,
Infects unseen.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Galileo, with an operaglass, discovered a more splendid series of celestial phenomena than anyone since.”
