Famous quotes containing the words language, film and/or category:
“Man, even man debased by the neocapitalism and pseudosocialism of our time, is a marvelous being because he sometimes speaks.

—Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
“A good film script should be able to do completely without dialogue.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“The truth is, no matter how trying they become, babies two and under don’t have the ability to make moral choices, so they can’t be “bad.” That category only exists in the adult mind.”
—Anne Cassidy (20th century)
