Hear Quotes

Montreal was a very active jazz center until club owners started putting in strippers instead of music. Before long, there was nothing to hear Picture Quote #1

For nothing is so hard to hear as that which is half known, and evaded. One never denies so hotly as in denying to one’s self what one fears is true, and one never resents so bitterly as in resenting that which one cannot say one has the right to resent Picture Quote #1

If you’ve heard this story before, don’t stop me, because I’d like to hear it again Picture Quote #1

I can’t believe that people really prefer to go to the concert hall under intellectually trying, socially trying, physically trying conditions, unable to repeat something they have missed, when they can sit at home under the most comfortable and stimulating circumstances and hear it as they want to hear it. I can’t imagine what would happen to literature today if one were obliged to congregate in an unpleasant hall and read novels projected on a screen Picture Quote #1

I hear hundreds of years of life. I hear wind and rain and fire and beetles. I hear the seasons changing and birds and squirrels. I hear the life of the trees this wood came from Picture Quote #1

Something amazing happens when the rest of the world is sleeping. I am glued to my chair. I forget that I ever wanted to do anything but write. The crowded city, the crowded apartment, and the crowded calendar suddenly seem spacious. Three or four hours pass in a moment; I have no idea what time it is, because I never check the clock. If I chose to listen, I could hear the swish of taxis bound for downtown bars or the soft saxophone riffs that drift from a neighbor’s window, but nothing gets through. I am suspended in a sensory deprivation tank, and the very lack of sensation is delicious Picture Quote #1

If you pick up a golfer and hold it close to your ear, like a conch shell, and listen, you will hear an alibi Picture Quote #1

A lot of times I have the song inside of me and I have to fight to get it out. I’m a very visual person, so I can see the song but I can’t hear it. But I think that if your music becomes a war for it to happen, in the end there’s a certain kind of aggression in the music. And I think that’s a lot more interesting Picture Quote #1

When I first started writing plays I couldn’t write good dialogue because I didn’t respect how black people talked. I thought that in order to make art out of their dialogue I had to change it, make it into something different. Once I learned to value and respect my characters, I could really hear them. I let them start talking Picture Quote #1

Television excites me because it seems to be the last stamping ground of poetry, the last place where I hear women’s hair rhapsodically described, women’s faces acclaimed in odelike language Picture Quote #1

Too little confidence, and you’re unable to act; too much confidence, and you’re unable to hear Picture Quote #1

Is it me? Is it like I have a beacon that only dogs and men with severe emotional problems can hear? Picture Quote #1

The most dangerous silence is noise; noise keeps us from hearing what we need to hear or from speaking what we need to speak Picture Quote #1

Stand still, close your eyes and listen; in the silence you can hear the cries of pain and low moans of anguish of animals waiting to die... do everything you can even if today it is just one small thing. There are no excuses for inaction, despair, egotism, or petulance that matter to the animals Picture Quote #1

Do my ears deceive me, or can I actually hear the sounds of worms turning? You say a turning worm makes no sound? But how about a chorus of turning worms? Picture Quote #1

I like to hear and smell the countryside, the land that my characters inhabit. I don’t want these characters to step off the page, I want them to step out of the landscape Picture Quote #1

To learn anything fast and effectively, you have to see it, hear it and feel it Picture Quote #1

The river is now. This moment. This breath between us. The space between your heartbeats. The moment before you blink. The instant a thought flashes through your mind. It is everything that is around us. Life. Energy. Flowing, endlessly flowing, carrying you from then... to now... to tomorrow. Listen: you can hear the music of it. Of the passage of time Picture Quote #1

Draw the art you want to see, start the business you want to run, play the music you want to hear, write the books you want to read, build the products you want to use – do the work you want to see done Picture Quote #1

There is nothing wrong with listening. You can listen to people; you can hear people’s concerns. You can keep an open mind and still be perfectly strong Picture Quote #1

I often feel I’m working in a vacuum, or in a country where few readers can hear the sounds Picture Quote #1

We don’t just respond to things as we see them, or feel them, or hear them. Rather, our response is conditioned on our beliefs, about what they really are, what they came from, what they’re made of, what their hidden nature is Picture Quote #1

When my children hear godliness out of my mouth and they see wickedness in my life, then I point them to heaven and I lead them to hell Picture Quote #1

Anyone telling about his travels must be a liar,... for if a traveler doesn’t visit his narrative with the spirit and techniques of fiction, no one will want to hear it Picture Quote #1

We do not really see through our eyes or hear through our ears, but through our beliefs Picture Quote #1

I’ve always loved acoustic music because I’ve always loved to hear someone’s words or just watch them and just get into them. The distancing thing about rock is it’s so assaulting Picture Quote #1

In silence one can receive more because all one’s activities become concentrated at one point. There is only one real rhythm; in silence you hear it. When you live to the rhythm of this silence, you become it, slowly; everything you do, you do to it Picture Quote #1

If you can speak what you will never hear, if you can write what you will never read, you have done rare things Picture Quote #1

I hear it said of somebody that he is leading a double life. I think to myself: Just two? Picture Quote #1

The passion for the story is the wind in your narrative sails. Begin at the heart. We must hear the heartbeat of the story. Love your characters into existence Picture Quote #1
