- "Film is a genuine art. It is genuine in that it is strictly popular. Like all the arts its apppeal is based on a few primitive, and therefore universal, instincts and mechanisms in man. Sex and combat are the chief instincts. --after Terry Ramsaye (1926).
- "Voyeurism is not just one of the primary tools of cinema, but of written fiction too."
- "The Kino is a vulgar modern entertainment and I doubt if it can tell us anything serious about the modern condition." --Sigmund Freud
