Famous quotes containing the words appearance, art and/or forms:

    Now the appearance of the glory of the LORD was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the sight of the people of Israel.
    Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 24:17.

    The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t.
    Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)

    I regret the unhappiness of princes who are slaves to forms and fettered by caution.
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)
