Famous quotes containing the words release, restored, versions and/or films:

    “The steel decks rock with the lightning shock, and shake with the
    great recoil,
    And the sea grows red with the blood of the dead and reaches for his spoil—
    But not till the foe has gone below or turns his prow and runs,
    Shall the voice of peace bring sweet release to the men behind the
    guns!”
    —John Jerome Rooney (1866–1934)

    “The vast results obtained by Science are won by no mystical faculties, by no mental processes other than those which are practiced by every one of us, in the humblest and meanest affairs of life. A detective policeman discovers a burglar from the marks made by his shoe, by a mental process identical with that by which Cuvier restored the extinct animals of Montmartre from fragments of their bones.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    “The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.”
    —Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)

    “Science fiction films are not about science. They are about disaster, which is one of the oldest subjects of art.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
