“The general public long ago stopped looking for beauty in high culture. But it still has TV and the movies....you are far more likely to find genuinely mesmerising images and real beauty in big-budget Hollywood movies -- think of, say, Christopher Nolan's Interstellar or his Dark Knight Trilogy -- than in any European art-house”
― Sohrab Ahmari, The New Philistines

“The more a man is given to sentiment ,the more likely is he to be wordy and to speak well.”
