“If there be any man who thinks the ruin of a race of men a small matter, compared with the last decoration and completions of his own comfort,who would not so much as part with his ice- cream, to save them from rapine and manacles, I think I must not hesitate to satisfy that man that also his cream and vanilla are safer and cheaper by placing the negro nation on a fair footing than by robbing them.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“You dont merely give over your creativity to making a filmyou give over your life! In theatre, by contrast, you live these two rather strange lives simultaneously; you have no option but to confront the mould on last nights washing-up.”
—Daniel Day Lewis (b. 1957)
“The Greeks possessed a knowledge of human nature we seem hardly able to attain to without passing through the strengthening hibernation of a new barbarism.”
