Umberto Eco A complete woman is probably not a very admirable creature. She is manipulative, uses other people to get her own way, and works within whatever system she is in. Anita Brookner A dislike of death is no proof of the want of religion. The instincts of nature shrink from it, for no creature can like its own dissolution. But though death is not desired, the result of it may be, for dying to the Christian is the way to life eternal. William Jay A healthy old fellow, who is not a fool, is the happiest creature living. Gerald Brenan A human being has been given an intellect to make choices, and we know there are other food sources that do not require the killing of a creature that would protest being killed. Mary Tyler Moore A lover may be a shadowy creature, but husbands are made of flesh and blood. Amy Levy A man is a poor creature compared to a woman. Honore de Balzac A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. John Stuart Mill A wonderful fact to reflect upon, that every human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other. Charles Dickens All great art is the work of the whole living creature, body and soul, and chiefly of the soul. John Ruskin All things must; man is the only creature that wills. Friedrich Schiller An angel is a spiritual creature created by God without a body for the service of Christendom and the church. Leo Rosten An artist is a creature driven by demons. He doesn't know why they choose him and he's usually too busy to wonder why. William Faulkner As bad as it might be to destroy a creature made in God's image, it might be very much worse to be creating them after images of one's own. Leon Kass As the same fire assumes different shapes When it consumes objects differing in shape, So does the one Self take the shape Of every creature in whom he is present. Marcus Aurelius At last the best of artisans ordained that that creature to whom He had been able to give nothing proper to himself should have joint possession of whatever had been peculiar to each of the different kinds of being. Giovanni Pico della Mirandola But it has, in addition, an even more precious quality - a consciousness of the human intelligence, the human spirit and that man is a social creature. Norman McLaren CGI is done after the film is done. It's through the computer. Most of the film is not computer-generated special effects. Most of it is that creature that is in the room with you. Sanaa Lathan Every creature is a word of God. Meister Eckhart Every creature is better alive than dead, men and moose and pine trees, and he who understands it aright will rather preserve its life than destroy it. Henry David Thoreau |
