I said it before and Iโll say it again: books are dead, plays are dead, poems are dead: thereโs only movies. Music is still okay, because music is sound track. Ten, fifteen years ago, every arts student wanted to be a novelist or a playwright. Iโd be amazed if you could find a single one now with such a dead-end ambition. They all want to make movies. Not write movies. You donโt write movies. You make movies.
Stephen FryAs I go clowning my sentimental way into eternity, wrestling with all my problems of estrangement and communion, sincerity and simulation, ambition and acquiescence, I shuttle between worrying whether I matter at all and whether anything else matters but me.
