What I've gathered from people who are big fans of the 'Musketeers', they adore the books to the degree where an awful lot of them, even if they have problems with an adaptation, normally still lap it up because they just love the whole idea of it.

Sebastian Faulks

As far as 'Birdsong' is concerned, I think the television program made a very honorable attempt at it, but the truth of the matter is that adaptations of long, ambitious books very seldom transfer well to the screen, and why would they?

British Novelist

Lois Lowry

Often in the past, there have been authors that were deeply disappointed in their adaptation, but that's because they haven't accepted the fact that a movie is a different thing, and it can't possibly be the same as the book.

American Writer

George C. Williams

I think that my main criticism in that book was directed at the general assumption that adaptation characterizes populations and species, rather than simply the individuals in the populations and species.

American Scientist

John Logan

Any adaptation - and I've done three in my career. I did 'Sweeney Todd' and 'Hugo' and 'Coriolanus.' It's important to find what makes it a movie as opposed to just a film presentation of a stage play.

American Producer

Quentin Tarantino

I actually want to do a theatrical adaptation of 'Hateful Eight' because I actually like the idea of other actors having a chance to play my characters and see what happens from that.

American Director

Gabriel Garcia Marquez

The truth is that I know very few novelists who have been satisfied with the adaptation of their books for the screen.

Colombian Novelist

Vetrimaaran

Characters, conflict and geography are things that must be considered while making movies from adaptations.

Indian Director

John Crowe Ransom

It is a miracle of harmony, of the adaptation of the free inner life to the outward necessity of things.

American Poet

Henry Miller

Whatever there be of progress in life comes not through adaptation but through daring.

American Author

Not Instant

The word often implies a successful change, although it's not always easy.

Faithfulness Varies

In biology, 'adaptation' refers to traits that help animals or plants survive.

Survival Mechanism

'Adaptation' in biology often focuses on a particular characteristic, not the whole organism.

Specific Trait

In technology, 'adaptation' may be needed when using products in unforeseen ways.

Customization Required

Technological adaptation is ongoing due to constant innovation and changing user needs.

Continuous Process

 Even if we solved those problems, we might face new ones. Cancer cells are masters of adaptation, adjusting their molecular and cellular characteristics to survive under stress. When they're bombarded by radiation or chemotherapy, some cancer cells can effectively switch on protective shields
