Quote examples
Sarah Weinman
American Journalist
The 'Vampire of Ropraz' claims to be based on a true story, but the name of Rosa's father matches that of a notable Swiss artist and restorer. The eventual suspect has the overlong teeth and shambling menace of a would-be vampire, but Chessex leaves the real possibility of his guilt an open question.
Quote examples
Seth Shostak
American Scientist
There's no doubt that the Moon is more than a handy night light and a hair restorer for werewolves. It's responsible for the substantial amplitude of earthly ocean tides. These are of obvious influence if you're a geoduck, a type of clam that people dig up at low tide.
Quote examples
Norman Vincent Peale
American Clergyman
Action is a great restorer and builder of confidence. Inaction is not only the result, but the cause, of fear. Perhaps the action you take will be successful; perhaps different action or adjustments will have to follow. But any action is better than no action at all.
Quote examples
Kevin Brownlow
British Historian
The reason I put so much energy into it at the beginning was that while there were plenty of people looking after the talkies, almost nobody was doing the same for the silents. Now there are plenty of very good historians and restorers.
Quote examples
Antony Beevor
British Historian
Restorers of paintings and pottery follow a code of conduct in their work to distinguish the original material from what they are adding later.
Quote examples
Simon Sebag Montefiore
British Historian
As colonial puppeteer and successful restorer of Russia as imperial superpower, Mr. Putin is Stalin's consummate heir.
Quote examples
Edward Hopper
American Artist
If the picture needs varnishing later, I allow a restorer to do that, if there's any restoring necessary.
