Worth

Famous quotes containing the word worth:

“The truth is, as every one knows, that the great artists of the world are never Puritans, and seldom even ordinarily respectable. No virtuous man—that is, virtuous in the Y.M.C.A. sense—has ever painted a picture worth looking at, or written a symphony worth hearing, or a book worth reading, and it is highly improbable that the thing has ever been done by a virtuous woman.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)

“If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing badly.”
—Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

“If you can’t believe a little in what you see on the screen, it’s not worth wasting your time on cinema.”
—Serge Daney (1944–1992)
