Famous quotes containing the words luis, house and/or studio:

    “The future is inevitable and precise, but it may not occur. God lurks in the gaps.”
    —Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

    “There are no such oysters, terrapin, or canvas-back ducks as there were in those days; the race is extinct. It is strange how things degenerate.... I passed, the other day, the deserted house of Mrs. Gerry, which I used to think so lordly. It stands alone now amid the surrounding sky-scrapers, and reminds me of Don Quixote going out to fight the windmills. It should always remain to mark the difference between the past and the present.”
    —M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    “Again and again, I struggled though the storm. Once I fainted—and it wasn’t in the script. I was hauled to the studio on a sled, thawed out with hot tea, and then brought back to the blizzard, where the others were waiting. We filmed all day and all night, stopping only to eat standing near a bonfire. We never went inside.... The blizzard never slackened.”
    —Lillian Gish (1896–1993)
