He was a God of rock. He nearly solved all the world’s problems with nothing but power chords and anguished cries into a microphone Picture Quote #1

I would love to do much more singing; it’s just one of those things where I can’t quite describe what it feels like when you’re standing in front of a forty piece orchestra, and there’s nothing between you and an audience but a microphone. It’s like strapping yourself to a locomotive, and I love it 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

Singing into a microphone and learning to play an instrument - learning to do your craft - that’s the most important thing! It’s not about what goes on in a computer! Picture Quote #1

You don’t need 30 million people to listen to your podcast. If 10,000 people listen to your podcast, which is not a hard number to achieve, then 10,000 people are listening, and you can build a community, and literally change the world just recording into a microphone Picture Quote #1

With the advent of cell phones, especially with the very small microphone that attach to the cell phone itself, it’s getting harder and harder I find, to differentiate between schizophrenics and people talking on a cell phone Picture Quote #1

I’m not a journalist any more. I don’t have to stick a microphone up somebody’s nostril and I don’t have a camera lens behind my shoulder, I think people talk to me in a much franker way Picture Quote #1

The economics favour one-man comedy shows: all you need is one person, a microphone and a PA system. But I’m pleased so many people are making a living out of comedy - it’s a wonderful business to be in Picture Quote #1

I was born with a silver microphone in my mouth, and that was an advantage. My father wrote books and was also a great broadcaster Picture Quote #1

I become a better actor after I step on a stage in front of, like, 500 people when it’s just me, a microphone and my guitar. You don’t get as nervous walking into a room in front of 3 or 4 people and to do a scene or to walk on a set. You gain confidence Picture Quote #1

The camera or the microphone in the booth is merciless. If you don’t believe what you’re saying, it hears it. If you don’t believe it, it sees it in your eyes, it hears it in your voice that there isn’t the conviction there Picture Quote #1

I think I was nervous enough, even at 3:00 a.m., that you could hear my heart beating over the microphone Picture Quote #1

I play a percussion instrument, not a musical saw; it needs no amplification. Where it’s needed, they put a microphone in front of the bass drum. But, I don’t think it’s necessary to play that way every night Picture Quote #1

I’m only just learning what language to use when I want my microphone turned down, you know, because it’s all so new to me. It can be quite difficult on a daily basis to communicate with the people I work with, so I’m just looking forward to knowing more Picture Quote #1

This microphone is the key to the universe. When you have this in your hands, you are the most powerful person in the whole world, let’s get! Picture Quote #1

Gowdy had a love affair with the microphone and the fans had a love affair with him. American sports fans truly lost an icon, a legend who never felt he was bigger than anyone else. He had that humility that made him special, and he made everyone feel like they were so important Picture Quote #1

I’ve run all the bands I’ve been in. A great front man needs that other person. It’s not enough to have a guy with a cute face standing behind a microphone. I see it like the classic romantic relationships with men and women, where the woman lets the man think he’s running it. It’s a classic matriarchal trait, and that’s always been part of my personality Picture Quote #1

Funny is not a color. Being black is only good from the time you get from the curtain to the microphone Picture Quote #1

With a good script a good director can produce a masterpiece; with the same script a mediocre director can make a passable film. But with a bad script even a good director can’t possibly make a good film. For truly cinematic expression, the camera and the microphone must be able to cross both fire and water. That is what makes a real movie. The script must be something that has the power to do this Picture Quote #1

Every time I talk about this, I say: when the singer is singing, he must be respected, you must be able to hear what he’s saying. You can’t put a trombone and a drum up there, and a microphone on the drum, microphones on everybody. You can’t hear what he’s saying Picture Quote #1

I always say the best applause you can get is when you walk from backstage up to your microphone at a concert. It’s also nice to walk up to the mike at an awards show, and that applause is great, too, but the best is when your fans are cheering for you Picture Quote #1

The only thing I’d ever done with news was to read copy sitting at the microphone in the studio Picture Quote #1
