Famous quotes containing the words change and/or era:

    “A change in the weather is sufficient to recreate the world and ourselves.”
    —Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    “It struck me that the movies had spent more than half a century saying, “They lived happily ever after” and the following quarter-century warning that they’ll be lucky to make it through the weekend. Possibly now we are now entering a third era in which the movies will be sounding a note of cautious optimism: You know it just might work.”
    —Nora Ephron (b. 1941)
