Text Quotes
I’m drawn to provocative characters that find themselves in extreme situations. And I think I’m drawn to that consistently. (Characters Quotes)
I was too ashamed and afraid to confide in friends, and wanted to convince others and myself that my marriage was a success. I lost myself in my writing. Finding ways for my characters to overcome their problems and make their relationships work helped plaster over the wound caused by my inability to make things right at home. (Characters Quotes)
Usually I like playing other people. I like finding myself through other characters. But when you do cabaret, you are yourself. I think it’s the most fun, and I tell you, if somebody had told me that, I would have done it fifteen years earlier than I did. (Characters Quotes)
It’s not about finding Mr Right, or that sort of conventional ending, but I do want my characters to have hope - and that’s what I do with all my stories. (Characters Quotes)
Hope and Crosby made seven ‘Road’ movies, starting in 1940 with ‘Road to Singapore.’ The movies were always about Crosby and Hope fleeing America and finding Dorothy Lamour in some exotic location. Bob’s character was cocky and cowardly; Bing’s character was smooth and unruffled. They were great characters - lousy, lovable guys. (Characters Quotes)
The hardest part about writing fiction is finding long stretches of time to do it: for me, this means writing mostly on Saturdays and Sundays. But I am always thinking about my characters, jotting down ideas in stolen moments and hoping I’ll be able to make sense of them when the weekend rolls around. (Characters Quotes)
The characters I’ve played as an actress have been really challenging and emotionally rewarding, but there was just something missing. I was finding over and over again that directors were looking to me to help with troubles on set as far as characters’ relationships, special effects and story points were concerned. (Characters Quotes)
Acting is fascinating to me. I love unlocking the mysteries with characters and finding out what would be the most intriguing aspect of that character to exist in. Figuring out a person and getting to be a different person every day, hey - that’s pretty lucky. I don’t have to wake up and be Amanda if I don’t feel like it. You know, that’s fun. (Characters Quotes)
I like spending a lot of time fine-tuning all the small characters. I think it really pays off. (Characters Quotes)
I’ve done it with Broadcast News-where there was no finish line, there was no agenda that I had to move all the characters to this point, that I was sort of open to what happens. (Characters Quotes)
The journey matters as much as the destination. By engaging in the moment on set, I’ve stopped rushing and now find pleasure in the collaborative process - the characters, the costumes - rather than worrying about the finished product. (Characters Quotes)
I started a novel back in high school. It wasn’t very good. It was the opposite of good. The writing itself wasn’t too bad, and the characters were interesting. But the story was a mess, and it was full of fantasy cliches. Dwarf with an axe. Barbarian warrior. I don’t ever think I’d bother finishing that. It’s just not worth my time. (Characters Quotes)
I created lots of characters in high school and college, and the first character I created in pro comics was Liana, Green Lantern of M’Elu, for a backup story in ‘Green Lantern #162,’ my first professional sale. (Characters Quotes)
It was very important to me to choose a director like Gary [Ross], whose instincts come from character, who’s a storyteller, and who puts characters first. (Characters Quotes)
First person allows deeper insight into the protagonist’s character. It allows the reader to identify more fully with the protagonist and to share her world quite intimately. So it suits a story focused on one character’s personal journey. However, first person shuts out insights into other characters. (Characters Quotes)
A first-person voice helps to ensure the uniformity and cohesiveness of the narrative; it gathers unto itself incidents and characters in its unstoppable progress toward the story’s end. (Characters Quotes)
The characters are always the focal point of a book for me, whether I’m writing or reading. I may enjoy a book that has an intriguing mystery or a good plot, but to become one of my real favorites, it has to have great characters. (Characters Quotes)
My indie work is mostly reality-based, focused on real life and characters (Characters Quotes)
It’s always exciting to play characters who are obsessive because all their energy is so focused on that one thing and they’re eccentric because of it. (Characters Quotes)
As a kid, my brother and I would read the same novel, we’d memorize entire pages, reenact the book as it’s characters, and would immerse in playing like that for hours. I suppose it was a natural follow up, wanting to still play in a similar fashion, but as an adult. (Characters Quotes)
I think one of the reasons ‘Borgen’ has such a following is because the characters are quite positive people. (Characters Quotes)
Remember that a good football novel has to have the same ingredients as any other good novel: drama, convincing and interesting characters, a strong story-line, and some kind of magic in the writing. (Characters Quotes)
You’re not just looking for laughs, but you’re trying to do the characters first, and then the laughs come afterwards. (Characters Quotes)
I loved the Romeo and Juliet of the whole thing; this forbidden love between these two characters (Characters Quotes)
With independent film, simply because they don’t have the money to make a big-budget film, they’re forced to make a story that’s important to them, that they would like to see on film, a personal story that people can relate to, about people, where you can see the love of the characters. (Characters Quotes)
What I look for these days is that I don’t have long speeches, the characters gets to sit down a lot, I don’t have to learn any foreign languages, and it doesn’t shoot in Minneapolis in February. That’s mainly what I look for. (Characters Quotes)
Whether it’s a kid in high school who doesn’t have any friends and finds friends in my characters, or a guy in Afghanistan, who’s trying to forget what he did that day, and trying not to think about what he’s gotta do tomorrow... I give them a little bit of an escape. (Characters Quotes)
Most performers take themselves too seriously. They forget there is a difference between the characters they play on the screen or stage and themselves, but the public doesn’t forget there is a difference. They see how silly it is if you try to be the same person all the time. (Characters Quotes)
A key goal for an author of history is to persuade his or her readers to forget what they know and to relive the world as it unfolded for characters of the time - with outcomes uncertain. (Characters Quotes)
