Craft Quotes

The beautiful thing about acting is that you can just dive into the character, strip yourself of everything, and just get in there and perfect your craft Picture Quote #1

I have two different categories of favorite films. One is the emotional favorites, which means these are generally films that I saw when I was a kid; anything you see in your formative years is more powerful, because it really stays with you forever. The second category is films that I saw while I was learning the craft of motion pictures Picture Quote #1

The craft of writing is all the stuff that you can learn through school; go to workshops and read books. Learn characterization, plot and dialogue and pacing and word choice and point of view. Then there’s also the art of it which is sort of the unknown, the inspiration, the stuff that is noncerebral Picture Quote #1

When you are young, hone your craft and write shorter pieces instead of novels, because it’s really hard to finish a novel Picture Quote #1

Talent is required, but much of writing is a matter of craft, which develops with time, attention, patience and practice, like playing an instrument or learning to dance Picture Quote #1

When you’re socially awkward, you’re isolated more than usual, and when you’re isolated more than usual, your creativity is less compromised by what has already been said and done. All your hope in life starts to depend on your craft, so you try to perfect it. One reason I stay isolated more than the average person is to keep my creativity as fierce as possible. Being the odd one out may have its temporary disadvantages, but more importantly, it has its permanent advantages Picture Quote #1

If I hadn’t been a designer, I’d have been a painter. I began as a painter and learned the craft of pottery in order to support myself Picture Quote #1

You can gain experience, if you are careful to avoid empty redundancy. Do not fall into the error of the artisan who boasts of twenty years experience in craft while in fact he has had only one year of experience–twenty times. And never resent the advantage of experience your elders have. Recall that they have paid for this experience in the coin of life, and have emptied a purse that cannot be refilled Picture Quote #1

There’s a choice that we have to make as people, as individuals. If you want to be great at something, there’s a choice you have to make. We all can be masters at our craft, but you have to make a choice. What I mean by that is, there are inherent sacrifices that come along with that. Family time, hanging out with friends, being a great friend, being a great son, nephew, whatever the case may be. There are sacrifices that come along with making that decision Picture Quote #1

Writing is a job, a craft, and you learn it by trying to write every day and by facing the page with humility and gall. And you have to love to read books, all kinds of books, good books. You are not looking for anything in particular; you are just letting stuff seep in Picture Quote #1

The first thing you’ve got to do is know your craft, and then you can do something else with it Picture Quote #1

I do craft songs, that this is designed. It’s almost like the song was written to produce this desired effect. And it probably really works for somebody. It’s maybe somebody’s favorite tune, and it’s really hard to come down on that, even if I feel a little embarrassed for it. Because some songs are written like a commercial, and that can be a little strange Picture Quote #1

I cannot overstate how much a generous spirit contributes to good luck. Look at the luckiest people around you, the ones you envy, the ones who seem to have destiny falling habitually into their laps. If they’re anything like the fortunate people I know, they’re prepared, they’re always working at their craft, they’re alert, they involve their friends in their work, and they tend to make others feel lucky to be around them Picture Quote #1

With practice the craft will come almost of itself, in spite of you and all the more easitly if you think of something besides technique Picture Quote #1

My aim is not to exhibit craft, but rather to submerge it, and make it rightfully the handmaiden of beauty, power and emotional content Picture Quote #1

The art establishment has turned away from the old curriculum which puts beauty and craft at the top of the agenda Picture Quote #1

There comes a point when the paint doesn’t feel like paint. I don’t know why. Some mysterious thing happens. I think you have all experienced it... What counts is that the paint should really disappear, otherwise it’s craft Picture Quote #1

Everywhere there is craft and technique; everywhere there is artistry and form. Art itself, technique, is ponderous and clumsy, and because of its awkwardness it obstructs that inner element Picture Quote #1

Being a writer is a rather hazardous occupation and there is a horribly high rate of writers who barely have the money for the paper and pen they use for their craft Picture Quote #1

Isn’t today a day to devote to craft? Isn’t tomorrow? Isn’t every day, routinely, until the end of time? Picture Quote #1

Great writers zealously learn the craft of their profession so they can release the power and the depth of their imagination and experience Picture Quote #1

When it comes to fundraising for a social enterprise, if you are pursuing your true passion, you’ll learn to become great at your craft because you’ll care so much about perfecting the skills necessary to make that dream a reality Picture Quote #1

Be a sponge. Spend as much time as possible with people who truly know their craft and be a great listener. That is how you learn Picture Quote #1

I don’t see any difference in the craft of acting, in film or television. It’s absolutely the same. It’s different storytelling, playing a character over multiple hours, as opposed to two Picture Quote #1

To be an artist you have to be as much a businessman to succeed, you have to spend an equal amount of time doing business as you spend doing your craft Picture Quote #1

The only craft and technique you have legitimate access to is the craft and technique you forgot, that has dissolved itself into the unconscious... Because you have learned it so well you have forgotten it Picture Quote #1

If you can engage the influencer’s passions, and work with them to craft a compelling logical appeal, then you can leverage the credibility of the influencer to actually sway hearts and minds Picture Quote #1

Most writers who are beginners, if they are honest with themselves, will admit that they are praying for a readership as they begin to write. But it should be the quality of the craft, not the audience, that should be the greatest motivating factor Picture Quote #1

Merely knowing your craft will never be enough to make a picture. If you ever amount to anything at all, it will be because you were true to that deep desire or ideal which made you seek artistic expression in pictures Picture Quote #1

I don’t assume, because I can write screenplays, that I know how to write a novel. It’s a very different world. There’s a craft involved in storytelling, and it’s a different kind of craft. But yes, someday I will do that. It just might be awhile Picture Quote #1
