DeMille |work=Cecil B. De Mille Foundation (cecilbdemille.com) |quote="In ''The Film Dailys biographical sketches of directors (July 1, 1928), DeMille was already being credited with “the first developments in lighting and photography.” While shooting The Warrens of Virginia (1915), DeMille had experimented with lighting instruments borrowed from a Los Angeles Opera House. When business partner Sam Goldwyn saw a scene in which only half an actor's face was illuminated, he feared the exhibitors would pay only half the price for the picture. DeMille remonstrated that it was Rembrandt lighting. “Sam's reply was jubilant with relief,” recalled DeMille. “For Rembrandt lighting the exhibitors would pay double!”" |access-date=1 November 2018 }} Rivette, Kevin G.; Kline, David: Rembrandts in the Attic: Unlocking the Hidden Value of Patents.

Bush's own words, "I told Laura and our artist friend Pam Nelson that I might like to take up painting. They were surprised — I had been an art-agnostic all my life. Laura said, “You ought to try it.” It seemed like she was slightly skeptical. Pam suggested I hire her friend Gail Norfleet, a notable and talented Dallas artist, as my instructor. Several days later, Gail came over to the house and asked me what my objectives were. “Gail, there's a Rembrandt trapped in this body,” I told her. “Your job is to liberate him.”"</ref>
