More quotes by Roger Ebert
I do not fear death. I know it is coming, and I do not fear it, because I believe there is nothing on the other side of death to fear.
Roger Ebert
Under no circumstances will I ever purchase anything offered to me as the result of an unsolicited e-mail message. Nor will I forward chain letters, petitions, mass mailings, or virus warnings to large numbers of others. This is my contribution to the survival of the online community.
Roger Ebert
The film argues to the young that the old were young once, too, and contain within them all that the young know, and more.
Roger Ebert
I was perfectly content before I was born, and I think of death as the same state.
Roger Ebert
The moment a man stops dreaming is the moment he petrifies inside.
Roger Ebert
I am utterly bored by celebrity interviews. Most celebrities are devoid of interest.
Roger Ebert
When I write, I fall into the zone many writers, painters, musicians, athletes, and craftsmen of all sorts seem to share: In doing something I enjoy and am expert at, deliberate thought falls aside and it is all just THERE. I think of the next word no more than the composer thinks of the next note.
Roger Ebert
To call A Lot like Love dead in the water is an insult to water.
Roger Ebert
Movies are not about moving, but about whether to move.
Roger Ebert
'Marley' does what is probably the best possible job of documenting an important life.
Roger Ebert
The ability of so many people to live comfortably with the idea of capital punishment is perhaps a clue to how so many Europeans were able to live with the idea of the Holocaust: Once you accept the notion that the state has the right to kill someone and the right to define what is a capital crime, aren't you halfway there?
Roger Ebert
But the fact is, most people are not going to be rich someday.
Roger Ebert
Of what use is freedom of speech to those who fear to offend?
Roger Ebert
We must try to contribute joy to the world.
Roger Ebert
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
Steve Coogan picks up enough to lecture an interviewer: This is a postmodern novel before there was any modernism to be post about. Later it's claimed that Tristram Shandy was No. 8 on the Observer's list of the greatest novels, which cheers everyone until they discover the list was chronological.
Roger Ebert
I just assume I'm right. Partially out of conviction and partially as a pose.
Roger Ebert
Families and their problems go on and on, and they aren't solved, they're dealt with.
Roger Ebert
One of the weapons Marvel used in its climb to comic-book dominance was a willingness to invent new characters at a dizzying speed. There are so many Marvel universes, indeed, that some superheroes do not even exist in one another's worlds, preventing gridlock.
Roger Ebert
All good art is about something deeper than it admits.
