Books have been written about that so-called renaissance at the Royal Court Theatre. Bollocks. I watched this appalling bunch of strange young men creeping around, talking pompously.

Part of me believes in anonymous art. I got that from a writer named Jamake Highwater, who wrote about painting before the Renaissance. The way people related to art in, say, ancient Greece. How it was about the community for the community and not the sel...

[on the continuing appeal of Gone with the Wind (1939)] It will go on forever, and how thrilling that is. It has this universal life, this continuing life. Every nation has experienced war - and defeat and renaissance. So all people can identify with the ...

We will continue to count on your unwavering support and commitment to working with leaders of our continent in bringing about the desired renaissance of Africa.

We have an opportunity to show the world that this is a much different place than it was in 1982, the last time we hosted the Super Bowl. A renaissance is taking place in what was a decaying inner city, and I can`t wait for the world to see the new Detroi...

It was always something I knew I was capable of and from an early age my mother was involved in the film industry. She used to work at a production company. So I was exposed to a renaissance period of films in New Zealand back in the early 80`s.
Karl Urban
I think he`s a wordsmith. I think he`s very good at choosing his words. There`s all kinds of literary references. ... The man is just so well-read, just really a Renaissance man.
Augustus Owsley Stanley
He`s really a renaissance man and a big supporter of the arts and sciences. He`s an art collector, quite a unique man. Since the big gift in 1998, he has been supporting us on an annual basis.
