Famous quotes containing the words sky, dancers and/or save:
“What is saved in the cinema when it achieves art is a spontaneous continuity with all mankind. It is not an art of the princes or the bourgeoisie. It is popular and vagrant.

—John Berger (b. 1926)
“So the Platonic Year
Whirls out new right and wrong,
Whirls in the old instead;
All men are dancers and their tread
Goes to the barbarous clangour of a gong.”

“It was said of old Sarah, Duchess of Marlborough, that she never puts dots over her i’s, to save ink.”
