Famous quotes containing the words threshold and/or literature:

“On the threshold of old age.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)

“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)
