    “If Shakespeare were alive today and writing comedy for the movies, he would be the head-liner for the Mack Sennett studios.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    “A film is a petrified fountain of thought.”
    —Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)

    “Every Age has its own peculiar faith.... Any attempt to translate into facts the mission of one Age with the machinery of another, can only end in an indefinite series of abortive efforts. Defeated by the utter want of proportion between the means and the end, such attempts might produce martyrs, but never lead to victory.”
    —Giuseppe Mazzini (1805–1872)
