Eternal Idol

Famous quotes containing the words eternal and/or idol:

    I loved, but woman fell away;
    I hid me from her faded fame.

    And wrote till earth was but a name.
    John Clare (1793–1864)

    Its idea of “production value” is spending a million dollars dressing up a story that any good writer would throw away. Its vision of the rewarding movie is a vehicle for some glamour-puss with two expressions and eighteen changes of costume, or for some male idol of the muddled millions with a permanent hangover, six worn-out acting tricks, the build of a lifeguard, and the mentality of a chicken-strangler.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
