Famous quotes containing the words language, film and/or category:
“Strange goings on! Jones did it slowly, deliberately, in the bathroom, with a knife, at midnight. What he did was butter a piece of toast. We are too familiar with the language of action to notice at first an anomaly: the it of Jones did it slowly, deliberately,... seems to refer to some entity, presumably an action, that is then characterized in a number of ways.”
—Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
“A film is a petrified fountain of thought.”
—Jean Cocteau (18891963)
“The truth is, no matter how trying they become, babies two and under dont have the ability to make moral choices, so they cant be bad. That category only exists in the adult mind.”
—Anne Cassidy (20th century)
