Film Critics Society

Famous quotes containing the words film, critics and/or society:

    “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)

    “With a few exceptions, the critics of children’s books are remarkably lenient souls.... Most of us assume there is something good in every child; the critics go from this to assume there is something good in every book written for a child. It is not a sound theory.”
    —Katharine S. White (1892–1977)

    “Solitude is impractical, and society fatal. We must keep our head in the one and our hands in the other. The conditions are met, if we keep our independence, yet do not lose our sympathy.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
