Famous quotes containing the words film and/or adaptation:
“To read a newspaper for the first time is like coming into a film that has been on for an hour. Newspapers are like serials. To understand them you have to take knowledge to them; the knowledge that serves best is the knowledge provided by the newspaper itself.”
—V.S. (Vidiadhar Surajprasad)
“Whatever there be of progress in life comes not through adaptation but through daring, through obeying the blind urge.”
