Golden Era

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or era:

“We are too civil to books. For a few golden sentences we will turn over and actually read a volume of four or five hundred pages.”

“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)
