Listeners Quotes

What makes ‘American Pie’ so unusual is that it isn’t a relic from the counterculture but a talisman, which, like a sacred river, keeps bringing joy to listeners everywhere. When ‘American Pie’ suddenly is played on a jukebox or radio, it’s almost impossible not to sing along Picture Quote #1

I spent many years writing and directing in radio drama, so I am comfortable with an audience or a microphone, but I do worry about the blurring of an author’s public persona with the work itself. A good ‘performer’ can make a mediocre book sound strong, and a shy author can leave listeners missing the excellence of his or her writing Picture Quote #1

Like all people who try to exhaust a subject, he exhausted his listeners Picture Quote #1

I’m still excited at being at a microphone and talking to listeners. I love that. It’s the most basic element of what I do and I still enjoy it very much Picture Quote #1

Radio listeners often have a very fertile imagination when it comes to body shape Picture Quote #1

More negatives write than call. It’s a cheap shot for me to go on the air with the critical letters or E-mail I get because the reaction of the listeners is always an instantaneous expression of sympathy for me and contempt for the poor critic Picture Quote #1

In 1928, radio networks like the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) and Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS) extended nationwide - any major political address could expect to reach forty million listeners Picture Quote #1

Personally, I love the cookie monster grunts. I like how they alienate listeners. We sound the way we sound. We’re individuals. We don’t all like the same music. Everybody contributes their own influences, style, and history Picture Quote #1

I did an audiobook for ‘Rough Crossings,’ which I thought was one of the best books I had published. But it was an absolute embarrassment to read it. All these horrible mucked-up bits of syntax, over-the-top adjectives. I found myself editing it while reading. Alert listeners will notice the difference Picture Quote #1

Each time, storytellers clothed the naked body of the myth in their own traditions, so that listeners could relate more easily to its deeper meaning Picture Quote #1

I read everything aloud, novels as well as picture books. I believe the eye and ear are different listeners. So as writers, we have to please both Picture Quote #1

I like to get input from all different kinds of listeners, including the really conservative ones, and sometimes those listeners steer me in a direction that I haven’t seen. But at the end of the day, my vote is always to go in the direction that makes me the most excited Picture Quote #1

We all have different competencies. Some of us are intellectually gifted, some of us athletically gifted, some of us are great listeners. Everyone has a different level of what they can do Picture Quote #1

Anyone can create and put stuff out there, so then as viewers and listeners, we have access to a lot of different unique view points Picture Quote #1

People have become less discriminating listeners, which is tragic, really. There’s a lot of emperor’s new clothes out there, whether they’re female or male solo acts. That bothers me. It’s hard to break through, and it’s like climbing Mount Everest if you actually do Picture Quote #1

Preaching is compelling to young secular adults ... - not if preachers use video clips from their favorite movies and dress informally and sound sophisticated, - but if the preachers understand their hearts and culture so well that listeners feel the force of the sermon’s reasoning, even if in the end they don’t agree with it Picture Quote #1

If I were to name my favorite pastime, I’d have to say talking about myself. I love it and I think most other people do too. We need, people like us, more listeners and less talkers Picture Quote #1

My absolute favorite song I’ve ever written is This Is Where We Came In. It’s a nudge at younger listeners, cause at one time you could go into a cinema halfway through a film and then stay through and pick up where you left off Picture Quote #1

We can’t expect listeners to Humble themselves and Glorify God, if what they are hearing begins with mocking others and ends with untamed judging of fellow beings Picture Quote #1

Focus your attention on the quality of your words, and not the quantity, because few sensible talks attracts millions of listeners more than a thousand gibberish Picture Quote #1

Barack Obama’s administration responded to the Haitian crisis within 24 hours. Here comes the soldiers, here comes the food, go go go... Rush Limbaugh told his multi-millions of listeners that Obama only did that to gain favour with black people in America. This is the kind of idiocy that I have to deal with in my country Picture Quote #1

I can’t give money away to buy listeners. I can’t pay listeners off with phones or food stamps or anything. I can’t come by my audience by buying it Picture Quote #1

I would hope to inspire in my listeners a feeling of freedom - of speech, thought and political activity Picture Quote #1

Everyone is so caught up in his own passions and interests that he always wants to talk about them without getting involved in the passions and interests of those to whom he speaks, although his listeners have the same need for others to listen to and help them Picture Quote #1

As humans, we have the tendency to call on God only when we think that we’re in dire straits as opposed to cultivating a real relationship with Him every day. And that’s what my music tries to convey to all the listeners - try to cultivate it every day Picture Quote #1

I treat everybody equal, and so I want to be sure that my listeners and my followers do the same if they’re gonna represent me. And if I’m gonna represent them, then I also want to do it in a good way Picture Quote #1

Politicians are good listeners. Because if they’re not, they aren’t politicians for very long Picture Quote #1

Because introverts are typically good listeners and, at least, have the appearance of calmness, we are attractive to emotionally needy people. Introverts, gratified that other people are initiating with them, can easily get caught in these exhausting and unsatisfying relationships Picture Quote #1

A good speech is like a miniskirt--long enough to over all the vital parts, short enough to entice and captivate listeners Picture Quote #1

Poetry is not a silent art. The poem must perform, unaided, in its reader’s head. Educated readers give themselves a good performance. Educated listeners compare performance with text and with other performances. Good poets use the full resources of language Picture Quote #1
