Ritual Murder

Famous quotes containing the words ritual and/or murder:

    “Cinema is the culmination of the obsessive, mechanistic male drive in western culture. The movie projector is an Apollonian straightshooter, demonstrating the link between aggression and art. Every pictorial framing is a ritual limitation, a barred precinct.”
    —Camille Paglia (b. 1947)

    “‘O blissful God, that art so just and true,
    Lo, how that thou bewrayest murder alway!
    Murder will out, that see we day by day.
    Murder is so wlatsom and abominable”
    —Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
