Epic Quotes

There is always this quarrel about what is preferable: the straight, naturalistic, epic storytelling or the modernistic, disjointed, slightly hermetic one. To me it does not matter, as long as it’s good. I like both kinds. Although the common reader seems to prefer the first, which is to be expected, and who would blame her? Picture Quote #1

The first arrival of earthly life on another celestial body ranks as an epochal event not only for our generation, but in the history of our planet. Neil Armstrong was at the cusp of the Apollo programme. This was a collective technological effort of epic scale, but his is the one name sure to be remembered centuries hence Picture Quote #1

But the development of human society does not go straight forward; and the epic process will therefore be a recurring process, the series a recurring series - though not in exact repetition Picture Quote #1

Sometimes you have to make a complete disaster of your life in such an epic way that it will be absolutely clear to you what you’ve been doing Picture Quote #1

You have to be doing things that matter - responsibility, but also responsibility with epic and beautiful and noble tasks Picture Quote #1

My team and I used the actual footage to create a three-act story of the life of Ayrton Senna. There are no talking heads and no voiceover. Senna narrates his own epic, dramatic, thrilling journey Picture Quote #1

To me, the fact that the Mexican came North in search of a better life is a tremendous epic that hasn’t been written. It’s an odyssey that we know nothing about. And they came with a dream for a better life Picture Quote #1

The wise will admire you. The wishful will envy you. The weak will hate you. This is the reality for those who dare to be epic Picture Quote #1

Jesus wastes none of our stories, even our tales of woe. He transforms them into epic adventures where we dare to face our past for the sake of our present Picture Quote #1

There’s never been a fantasy movie of the epic battle of good versus evil that ended with evil winning Picture Quote #1

She’d been criticized for holding the reins of parenthood too tightly, of controlling her children too completely, but she didn’t know how to let go. From the moment she’d first decided to become a mother, it had been an epic battle Picture Quote #1

Nice teeth is a turn on for me. If you open your mouth and it looks like a battle of epic proportions, I don’t like it Picture Quote #1

I think it’s fairly common for writers to be afflicted with two simultaneous yet contradictory delusions, the burning certainty that we’re unique geniuses, and the constant fear that we’re witless frauds who are speeding toward epic failure Picture Quote #1

With epic fantasy, there is a tendency for it to be quintessentially conservative in that its job is to restore what is perceived to be out of whack Picture Quote #1

In the electronic game world, I know I have a reputation for doing the cyberpunk thing, and for doing the serious epic fantasy thing, but if you go back to when I was a kid, I’ve been a Disney fan all my life Picture Quote #1

Temeraire’ is a terrific meld of two genres that I particularly love - fantasy and historical epic Picture Quote #1
