movies have mirrored our moods and myths since the century began. They have taken on some of the work of religion.

In an age in which greed and lust stalk the land like some Biblical plague, it is easy to view sex as just one more thing to be had. It is the mythos of moderns.

We do what we can. The results are none of our business.

Perhaps society should give actors the same sort of protection it gives to those who follow a religious life. Actor/priest was originally the same job. The theater is left wing magic and theology is right wing magic.

As the medieval mind blamed God for human suffering, so the modern mind blames 'the system' for the industrial blight and plague of technology.

ladies are just those of us who have been silenced.

writers who go outside the lines when they draw pictures of the world are seldom rewarded for their efforts.
