You're An Idealist, And I Pity You As I Would The Village Idiot.

Gee, I Wish We Had One Of Them Doomsday Machines Things.

I'm Not Afraid Of Dying Tomorrow, Only Of Being Killed.

I Haven't Come Across Any Recent New Ideas In Film That Strike Me As Being Particularly Important And That Have To Do With Form. I Think That A Preoccupation With Originality Of Form Is More Or Less A Fruitless Thing. A Truly Original Person With A Truly Original Mind Will Not Be Able To Function In The Old Form And Will Simply Do Something Different. Others Had Much Better Think Of The Form As Being Some Sort Of Classical Tradition And Try To Work Within It.
