Details Quotes

I don’t agree with the libertarians. I want my security first. I’ll deal with all the details after that Picture Quote #1

Begin to imagine what the desirable outcome would be like. Go over these mental pictures and delineate details and refinements. Play them over and over to yourself Picture Quote #1

I’m fascinated by what people will do to each other. Actually, I’m sort of interested in the gory details of life Picture Quote #1

Don’t be so familiar and so much into the details. Keep people dreaming. Close the window, and make them wonder Picture Quote #1

I think I have a very detailed sense of observation. I am interested in the details of people’s lives and what information these details give Picture Quote #1

When you come up with a theory, you fall in love with the beauty the simplicity and elegance of it. But then you have to get a sheet of paper and pencil and crack out all the details. Hundreds and hundreds of pages. Because you have to prove it Picture Quote #1

Garbage can provide important details for hackers: names, telephone numbers, a company’s internal jargon Picture Quote #1

… but you can’t get all hung up on details when you are trying to survive… Picture Quote #1

A novel is not a summary of its plot but a collection of instances, of luminous specific details that take us in the direction of the unsaid and unseen Picture Quote #1

Everyone underestimates their own life. Funny thing is, in the end, all our stories... they’re the same. In fact, no matter where you go in the world, there is only one important story: of youth, loss and yearning for redemption. So we tell the same story, over and over. Only the details are different Picture Quote #1

It’s funny how strangers can pass in front of you every day and all you see is a flat shadow, a vague outline, not noticing any of the details. They move in a gray crowd, always looking the same and acting the same, simple caricatures of who they really are, but once you get to know them, you notice the specific, tiniest things, you pay attention to the intricacies of their personalities, their habits and particular ways of walking and talking, the subtle changes in their appearance and dress Picture Quote #1

Maybe she, like me, would have loved the tiny details and inconveniences even more dearly than the wonders, because they are the things that prove you belong Picture Quote #1

Josh had told me a long time ago that he had this theory that an entire relationship was based on what occurred over the course of the first five minutes you know each other. That everything that came after those first minutes was just details being filled in. Meaning: you already knew how deep the love was, how instinctually you felt about someone. What happened in their first five minutes? Time stopped Picture Quote #1

When you wake up from a dream you have only a few precious moments before the details of the dream begin to dissipate and the memory fades. Not all dreams are significant or worth remembering. But the ones that are... happen again. So, wait for the dream to return. And never be afraid. Instead, consider it an opportunity to learn something profound and possibly wondrous about yourself Picture Quote #1

How do we know that our life really happened and that we are not simply accumulating details, making it all up as we go along? Picture Quote #1

Sit and quiet yourself. Luxuriate in a certain memory and the details will come. Let the images flow. You’ll be amazed at what will come out on paper. I’m still learning what it is about the past that I want to write. I don’t worry about it. It will emerge. It will insist on being told Picture Quote #1

Styles may change, details may come and go, but the broad demands of aesthetic judgement are permanent Picture Quote #1

One never took the time to savour the details; one said: another day, but always with the hidden knowledge that each day was unique and fatal, that there never would be a return, another time Picture Quote #1

When you see an object, it seems that you see it as an entire thing first, and only afterwards do its details follow on. But for people with autism, the details jump straight out at us first of all, and then only gradually, detail by detail, does the whole image float up into focus Picture Quote #1

Of true knowledge at any time, a good part is merely convenient, necessary indeed to the worker, but not to an understanding of his subject: One can judge a building without knowing where to buy the bricks; one can understand a violin sonata without knowing how to score for the instrument. The work may in fact be better understood without a knowledge of the details of its manufacture, of attention to these tends to distract from meaning and effect Picture Quote #1

We must see that music theory is not only about music, but about how people process it. To understand any art, we must look below its surface into the psychological details of its creation and absorption Picture Quote #1

Stories are how we learn best. We absorb numbers and facts and details, but we keep them all glued into our heads with stories Picture Quote #1

In fact, whenever energy is transmitted from one body to another in time, there must be a medium or substance in which the energy exists after it leaves one body and before it reaches the other... and if we admit this medium as an hypothesis, I think it ought to occupy a prominent place in our investigations, and that we ought to endeavour to construct a mental representation of all the details of its action, and this has been my constant aim in this treatise Picture Quote #1

The devil is in the details, and everything we do in the military is a detail Picture Quote #1

So I made an outline. Well, you know, days are going by, and I am not writing anything because this thing is laid out in front of me. It’s as if you get every brochure for a trip you are going to go on and you get the minutest details of every step along the way. Well, I really doubt you’re going to then get in the car and go. You know, it’s like, why bother if it’s all laid out in front of you? Picture Quote #1

All fiction relies on the real world in the sense that we all take in the world through our five senses and we accumulate details, consciously or subconsciously. This accumulation of detail can be drawn on when you write fiction Picture Quote #1

Haemoglobin is a very large molecule by ordinary standards, containing about ten thousand atoms, but the chances are that your haemoglobin and mine are identical, and significantly different from that of a pig or horse. You may be impressed by how much human beings differ from one another, but if you were to look into the fine details of the molecules of which they are constructed, you would be astonished by their similarity Picture Quote #1

I think the more the listener can contribute to the song, the better; the more they become part of the song, and they fill in the blanks. Rather than tell them everything, you save your details for things that exist. Like what color the ashtray is. How far away the doorway was. So when you’re talking about intangible things like emotions, the listener can fill in the blanks and you just draw the foundation Picture Quote #1

I’m always doubtful. Everything I do is always doubtful. When you’re trying to differentiate, there’s going to be this gut sense, is this right? If you’re not having doubt, then you’re not pushing it hard enough, or you’re not looking at the details close enough. You need to be feeling that doubt every single day Picture Quote #1
