More quotes by Roger Ebert
We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try.
Roger Ebert
If there is such a thing as a lock on an Oscar nomination, ... Hoffman has one.
Roger Ebert
To make others less happy is a crime. To make ourselves unhappy is where all crime starts. We must try to contribute joy to the world. That is true no matter what our problems, our health, our circumstances. We must try. I didn't always know this and am happy I lived long enough to find it out.
Roger Ebert
If you pay attention to the movies they will tell you what people desire and fear. Movies are hardly ever about what they seem to be about. Look at a movie that a lot of people love, and you will find something profound, no matter how silly the film may be.
Roger Ebert
A lot of people just go to movies that feed into their preexisting and not so noble needs and desires: They just go to action pictures, and things like that.
Roger Ebert
What happens in a fantasy can be more involving than what happens in life, and thank goodness for that.
Roger Ebert
Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson star. I neglected to mention that, maybe because I was trying to place them in this review's version of the Witness Protection Program. If I were taken off the movie beat and assigned to cover the interior design of bowling alleys, I would have some idea of how they must have felt as they made this film.
Roger Ebert
Catholic theology accounts for the fact that there's evil in the world. People say, well, how could God let this happen. Well, what God did was set the mechanism in motion and then allow people to do the best they can under the circumstances that they're dealt in order to gain grace and get into heaven.
Roger Ebert
A remarkable documentary that's also one of the most beautiful nature films I've seen.
Roger Ebert
Never marry anyone you could not sit next to during a three-day bus trip.
Roger Ebert
The Golden Thumb is not as good as the Oscar, but it is a lot of fun.
Roger Ebert
It is reckless to make broad generalizations about any group of people.
Roger Ebert
Marlon Brando is the most influential movie actor of the century.
Roger Ebert
I've been around a long time, and young men, if there is one thing I know, it is that the only way to kiss a girl for the first time is to look like you want to and intend do, and move in fast enough to seem eager but slow enough to give her a chance to say So anyway ... and look up as if she's trying to remember your name.
Roger Ebert
I begin to feel like I was in the last generation of Americans who took a civics class. I begin to feel like most Americans don't understand the First Amendment, don't understand the idea of freedom of speech, and don't understand that it's the responsibility of the citizen to speak out.
Roger Ebert
Film theory has nothing to do with film.
Roger Ebert
It is universally agreed that Jean Renoir was one of the greatest of all directors, and he was also one of the warmest and most entertaining.
Roger Ebert
The very fact of snow is such an amazement.
Roger Ebert
A corner is important. It provides privacy and an anchor and lets you exist independently of the room.
Roger Ebert
Because we are human, because we are bound by gravity and the limitations of our bodies, because we live in a world where the news is often bad and the prospects disturbing, there is a need for another world somewhere, a world where Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers live.
Roger Ebert
