—Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)
“A film is a petrified fountain of thought.”
—Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
“To deny the need for comprehensive child care policies is to deny a reality—that there’s been a revolution in American life. Grandma doesn’t live next door anymore, Mom doesn’t work just because she’d like a few bucks for the sugar bowl.”
