Famous quotes containing the words ancient and/or scholars:
“I can forgive even that wrong of wrongs,
Those undreamt accidents that have made me
Seeing that Fame has perished this long while,
Being but a part of ancient ceremony
Notorious, till all my priceless things
Are but a post the passing dogs defile.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“You should look straight at a film; that’s the only way to see one. Film is not the art of scholars but of illiterates.”
