Quote by J. W. Eagan

Never judge a book by its movie.

Never judge a book by its movie.

Summary

This quote is a reminder to not pass judgment or form opinions about a book solely based on its film adaptation. Movies often condense and simplify the story, often sacrificing depth and nuance found in the original book. A book allows for an immersive experience, offering more detailed characterization, internal thoughts, and subtle themes that may not translate effectively on screen. Therefore, it encourages one to read the book first before making any conclusions about its quality or value based on its movie adaptation.

I grow daily to honor facts more and more, and theory less and less. A fact, it seems to me, is a great thing -- a sentence printed, if not by God, then at least by the Devil.
