Closer

Famous quotes containing the word closer:

    Celebrity-worship and hero-worship should not be confused. Yet we confuse them every day, and by doing so we come dangerously close to depriving ourselves of all real models. We lose sight of the men and women who do not simply seem great because they are famous but are famous because they are great. We come closer and closer to degrading all fame into notoriety.
    Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    As the twentieth century ends, commerce and culture are coming closer together. The distinction between life and art has been eroded by fifty years of enhanced communications, ever-improving reproduction technologies and increasing wealth.
    Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)

    You and I have two bodies, aye, very different sorts of bodies, but we’re closer than if we were in the same skin. For I saved that skin o’ yours once, and you’ll not forget it.
    Philip MacDonald, and Robert Wise. Gray (Boris Karloff)
