“- هل تدري يا "تيودور" لماذا أحببنا السينما الصامتة؟ لأننا نحبُّ أن نخلق، ونُبدِعَ، ونُملي على الكون ما نتصوَّر ونتخيل، المسرح بكل قُوَّته وجبروته وحضوره لا يجعلك بالضرورة تحبُّ ما يُقال، قد تجده لطيفًا، ولكن في كثير من الأحيان قد تجده مُمِلًّا ومُتكرِّرًا، أمَّا هناك في السينما، عندما تجلس صامتًا مُحدِّقًا إلى الصور، تكتب في ذهنك وبنفسك الحوار الذي أرَدتَ سَماعَه، وقتها فقط وعندما تخرج من صالة العرض تشعر بأنك قد أنجزت شيئًا، أخرجته إلى حَيِّز الوجود والإمكان.”
― غادة العبسي, كوتسيكا

― Stewart Stafford
