Famous quotes containing the words heart and/or rate:

    “And wilt thou leave me thus?
    That hath loved thee so long
    In wealth and woe among:
    And is thy heart so strong
    As for to leave me thus?
    Say nay! say nay!”
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    “This is the essential distinction—even opposition—between the painting and the film: the painting is composed subjectively, the film objectively. However highly we rate the function of the scenario writer—in actual practice it is rated very low—we must recognize that the film is not transposed directly and freely from the mind by means of a docile medium like paint, but must be cut piece-meal out of the lumbering material of the actual visible world.”
    —Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)
