As the knight of the quill never ventured into the fight, and only snuffed the battle afar, he knew nothing accurately of battles, but managed to pick up a few real or supposed incidents from the wounded and from stragglers.

A movie camera is like having someone you have a crush on watching you from afar - you pretend it's not there.
