Famous quotes containing the words outstanding, lead, actress and/or movie:
“From time to time there appear on the face of the earth men of rare and consummate excellence, who dazzle us by their virtue, and whose outstanding qualities shed a stupendous light. Like those extraordinary stars of whose origins we are ignorant, and of whose fate, once they have vanished, we know even less, such men have neither forebears nor descendants: they are the whole of their race.”
—Jean De La Bruyère (1645–1696)
“None can lead this life who are not almost amphibious.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“An actress is not a machine, but they treat you like a machine. A money machine.”
—Marilyn Monroe (1926–1962)
“All you need for a movie is a gun and a girl.”
—Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)
