Garth Stein Quotes

The visible becomes inevitable Picture Quote #1

[T]he race is long - to finish first, first you must finish Picture Quote #1

I gotta be honest with you... I hate numbers. I hate chapter numbers. I hate them Picture Quote #1

I’ll give you a theory: Man’s closest relative is not the chimpanzee, as the TV people believe, but is, in fact, the dog Picture Quote #1

The true hero is flawed. The true test of a champion is not whether he can triumph, but whether he can overcome obstacles - preferably of his own making - in order to triumph Picture Quote #1

To live every day as if it had been stolen from death, that is how I would like to live. To feel the joy of life, as Eve felt the joy of life. To separate oneself from the burden, the angst, the anguish that we all encounter every day. To say I am alive, I am wonderful, I am. I am. That is something to aspire to Picture Quote #1

Those monkey-thumbs were meant for dogs. Give me my thumbs, you fu**ing monkeys! Picture Quote #1

[M]emory is time folding back on itself. To remember is to disengage from the present Picture Quote #1

Anyone who has a dog knows that they have some very deep thoughts, that they have moods and emotions, they get their feelings hurt. It’s not a far reach to give them opinions and values and long-term desires Picture Quote #1

I think the one that’s going to be the hardest to make into a film is the one that’s probably going to be made into a film, which is ‘The Art of Racing in the Rain.’ I mean, it’s narrated by a dog. How do you do that? But hopefully we’ll get to see Picture Quote #1

I’m a writer because I love reading. I love the conversation between a reader and a writer, and that it all takes place in a book-sort of a neutral ground. A writer puts down the words, and a reader interprets the words, and every reader will read a book differently. I love that 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

Did he understand, as those interminable minutes ticked by, that being alone is not the same as being lonely? That being alone is a neutral stateÂ¦ something that exists only in the mind, not in the world, and, like a virus, is unable to survive without a willing host? Picture Quote #1

...you have to reach for things beyond your grasp, or what is heaven for Picture Quote #1

In documentary films, you’re a storyteller using found objects. You still have to have a story arc and all the elements that make a good story. It really helped me mature as a storyteller Picture Quote #1

Using a dog as a narrator has limitations and it has advantages. The limitations are that a dog cannot speak. A dog has no thumbs. A dog can’t communicate his thoughts except with gestures Picture Quote #1

It’s so hard to communicate because there are so many moving parts. There’s presentation and there’s interpretation and they’re so dependent on each other it makes things very difficult Picture Quote #1

Somewhere, the zebra is dancing Picture Quote #1

Yet for every peak there is a valley Picture Quote #1

We are the creators of our own destiny Picture Quote #1

That which you manifest is before you Picture Quote #1

What I want now is what I’ve always wanted Picture Quote #1

That which we manifest is before us Picture Quote #1

Gestures are all that I have; sometimes they must be grand in nature Picture Quote #1

... you have to reach for things beyond your grasp, or what is heaven for Picture Quote #1

People and their rituals. They cling to things so hard sometimes Picture Quote #1

The car goes where the eyes go Picture Quote #1
