Famous quotes containing the words film and/or music:

    You should look straight at a film; that’s the only way to see one. Film is not the art of scholars but of illiterates.
    Werner Herzog (b. 1942)

    The music in my heart I bore,
    Long after it was heard no more.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
