Look, I come from vaudeville, I come from burlesque, I come from heartaches, I come from sadness, I come from gladness, I come from work and sweat and respect for the craft Picture Quote #1

The great thing for me, now, is that writing has become more and more interesting. Not just as a craft but as a way into things that are not described. It’s a thing of discovering. That’s when writing is really working. You’re on the trail of something and you don’t quite know what it is Picture Quote #1

I think that all actors find they go down and then they come back up if you work on your craft. They come back up to the top and then they go back down and they come back up and they go back down Picture Quote #1

Don’t look at other people and compare yourself. Just do the work. Because when the opportunity is there, you have to be ready. Make sure your craft is refined and you’re constantly working on it. Plow through the weeds. Go to the auditions and go to the meetings and be on time. Stop looking to the left or the right. Keep your head down and keep moving Picture Quote #1

The purpose of every industrial revolution is to make craft and skills obsolete, and thereby make people interchangeable and cheap Picture Quote #1

The ultimate aim of all artistic activity is building!... Architects, sculptors, painters, we must all get back to craft!... The artist is a heightened manifestation of the craftsman... Let us form... a new guild of craftsmen without the class divisions that set out to raise an arrogant barrier between craftsmen and artists!... Let us together create the new building of the future which will be all in one: architecture and sculpture and painting Picture Quote #1

I’m sure that writing isn’t a craft, that is, something for which you learn the skills and go on turning out. It must come from some deep impulse, deep inspiration. That can’t be taught, it can’t be what you use in teaching Picture Quote #1

To grow in craft is to increase the bredth of what I can do, but art is the depth, the passion, the desire, the courage to be myself and myself alone Picture Quote #1

Design is in everything we make, but it’s also between those things. It’s a mix of craft, science, storytelling, propaganda, and philosophy Picture Quote #1

The very act of committing an experience to the page is necessarily an act of reduction, and regardless of craft or skill, vision or voice, the result is a story beholden to and inevitably eclipsed by source material Picture Quote #1

In taking stock of a politician, the first question is not whether he was a good man who used righteous means, but whether he was successful in gaining power, in keeping it, and in governing; whether, in short, he was skilful at his particular craft or a bungler Picture Quote #1

It’s not hard to make a space that looks good by itself. The trick is to craft a room that’s even more attractive when it’s occupied. That’s when it becomes magical Picture Quote #1

A small craft in the ocean is, or should be, a benevolent dictatorship. The skipper’s brain is the vessel’s brain and he must give up his soul to her, regardless of his own feelings or inclinations Picture Quote #1

Every flying machine has its own unique characteristics, some good, some not so good. Pilots naturally fly the craft in such a manner as to take advantage of its good characteristics and avoid the areas where it is not so good Picture Quote #1

People enquire as to the craft behind our art and we reply by making references to a patently childish notion Picture Quote #1

The current memoir craze has fostered the belief that confession is therapeutic, that therapy is redemptive and that redemption equals art, and it has encouraged the delusion that candor, daring and shamelessness are substitutes for craft, that the exposed life is the same thing as an examined one Picture Quote #1

I’m interested in vernacular cultures, where people lived a little closer to the source of materials and the making of objects for use. And for me, not to rely strictly on the history of art has always been an interesting process, to be looking into areas that we call craft and trades Picture Quote #1

The mystique and the false glamour of the writing profession grow partly out of a mistaken belief that people who can express profound ideas and emotions have ideas and emotions more profound than the rest of us. It isn’t so. The ability to express is a special gift with a special craft to support it and is spread fairly equally among the profound, the shallow, and the mediocre Picture Quote #1

I’m tired of having to consult a group of old white guys about my black girl craft. They don’t even know what they’re listening for or to Picture Quote #1

We have the ability to craft a life where we are completely fulfilled. We think it is dependent on outsiders, and to some extent it is, but it is much more dependent on the attitude we bring to life Picture Quote #1

Typographic style is founded not on any one technology of typesetting or printing, but on the primitive yet subtle craft of writing Picture Quote #1

Advice? Focus on the craft. Study the greats. Try and understand how and why they made the writing choices they did. Then, start by copying them... just as an exercise. See if you can do similar things. Learn how to write a song like so and so. Then, when you’ve done that, write a song like yourself. Learn to color within the lines before going outside them Picture Quote #1

In the practice of any craft, we are less concerned with the quantity of the product than with its quality, and less concerned with the product than with the artisan Picture Quote #1

It’s paradoxical that the death of your quarry is besides the point and at the same time the whole point. A chase without a kill as its object is like a journey without a destination; a kill without a chase employing all the hunter’s craft is killing, not hunting Picture Quote #1

I’ve taught both screenwriting and playwriting, and playwriting is both much harder and much more rewarding. One can teach people how to tell a story in cinematic ways, but theater is a much more elusive craft Picture Quote #1

My writing isn’t a career or a craft or a hobby or anything like that. It is more like a tiny annex to my life, a little crawl space in which I occasionally end up by accident in the dark Picture Quote #1

It’s my belief that cooking is a craft. I think that you can push it into the realm of art, but it starts with craft. It starts with an understanding of materials. It starts with an understanding of where foods are grown Picture Quote #1
