The moment a man stops dreaming is the moment he petrifies inside.
Roger Ebert
Image
From a dramatic viewpoint, there are few professions that grant their members entry into other lives, high among them cops, doctors, clergymen, journalists and prostitutes. Perhaps that explains why they figure in so much television and cinema. Their lives are lived in the midst of human drama.
Roger Ebert
Image
There are two things you can't argue in film: comedy and eroticism. If something doesn't make you laugh, no one can tell you why it's funny, and it's difficult to reason someone out of an erection.
Roger Ebert
Image
Life is made up of challenges that cannot be solved but only accepted.
Roger Ebert
Image
No movie has ever been able to provide a catharsis for the Holocaust, and I suspect none will ever be able to provide one for 9/11. Such subjects overwhelm art.
Roger Ebert
Image
Ridley Scott's 'Prometheus' is a magnificent science-fiction film, all the more intriguing because it raises questions about the origin of human life and doesn't have the answers.
Roger Ebert
Image
Sometimes you only need to have a few words with a person to know you would like to have many more.
Roger Ebert
Image
Sometimes, it's all about the casting.
Roger Ebert
Image
To die is one thing. How much worse to know that all the life that ever existed on this planet, and all it ever achieved, was to be obliterated?
Roger Ebert
Image
'Marley' does what is probably the best possible job of documenting an important life.
Roger Ebert
Image
But the fact is, most people are not going to be rich someday.
Roger Ebert
Image
We must try to contribute joy to the world.
Roger Ebert
Image
We exist to have our wealth moved up the economic chain out of our reach.
Roger Ebert
Image
The children of Birmingham did not really die in the State of Alabama, however, because Alabama is a state of mind, and in the minds of the [white] men who rule Alabama, those children had never lived [...] their blood is on so many hands, that history will weep in the telling...and it is not new blood. It is old, so very old.
Roger Ebert
Image
All good art is about something deeper than it admits.
Roger Ebert
Image
We think of first love as sweet and valuable, a blessed if hazardous condition.
Roger Ebert
Image
Because I don't give the studios advanced quotes or an advanced look at my reviews. I think the readers deserve to read my reviews before the studios do.
Roger Ebert
Image
We are put on this planet only once, and to limit ourselves to the familiar is a crime against our minds.
Roger Ebert
Image
The right really dominates radio, and it's amazing how much energy the right spends telling us that the press is slanted to the left when it really isn't. They want to shut other people up. They really don't understand the First Amendment.

Movies are like a machine that generates empathy.
