Turning North

Famous quotes containing the words turning and/or north:

    The camera has an interest in turning history into spectacle, but none in reversing the process. At best, the picture leaves a vague blur in the observer’s mind; strong enough to send him into battle perhaps, but not to have him understand why he is going.
    Denis Donoghue (b. 1928)

    The battle of the North Atlantic is a grim business, and it isn’t going to be won by charm and personality.
    —Edmund H. North, British screenwriter, and Lewis Gilbert. First Sea Lord (Laurence Naismith)
