Famous quotes containing the words films, beat and/or generation:
“Science fiction films are not about science. They are about disaster, which is one of the oldest subjects of art.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“That most ingenious paradox!
We’ve quips and quibbles heard in flocks,
But none to beat that paradox!”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
“There may perhaps be a new generation of doctors horrified by lacerations, infections, women who have douched with kitchen cleanser. What an irony it would be if fanatics continued to kill and yet it was the apathy and silence of the medical profession that most wounded the ability to provide what is, after all, a medical procedure.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
