Famous quotes containing the words world, cinema and/or dramatic:
“One who knew how to appropriate the true value of this world would be the poorest man in it. The poor rich man! all he has is what he has bought.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The cinema is going to form the mind of England. The national conscience, the national ideals and tests of conduct, will be those of the film.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
““The unities, sir,’ he said, “are a completeness—a kind of universal dovetailedness with regard to place and time—a sort of general oneness, if I may be allowed to use so strong an expression. I take those to be the dramatic unities, so far as I have been enabled to bestow attention upon them, and I have read much upon the subject, and thought much.””
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
