More quotes by Roger Ebert

Roger Ebert
That's what fantasies are for, to help us imagine that things are better than they are.
Roger Ebert
Who was the real Hitchcock? I interviewed him once and haven't a clue.
Roger Ebert
Someone once said the fundamental reason we get married is because have a universal human need for a witness.
Roger Ebert
James Cameron's films have always been distinguished by ground-breaking technical excellence.
Roger Ebert
We can't help identifying with the protagonist. It's coded in our movie-going DNA.
Roger Ebert
Oh, here comes Mel Blanc, the voice of Bugs Bunny and Jimmy Smits!
