My Own Quotes

I did not see any way that I could possibly give birth to someone else and also give birth to myself. Far from feeling guilty, it was the first time that I had taken responsibility for my own life Picture Quote #1

From the very beginning, I wrote to explain my own life to myself, and I invited any readers who chose to make the journey with me to join me on the high wire Picture Quote #1

I hate to say there are female and male ways of dealing with power, because I think each of us has a male and a female part. But based on my own experience, women will tend to be inclusive, to reach out more, to care a little more Picture Quote #1

I have simply wished to assert the reasoned and independent feeling of my own individuality within a total knowledge of tradition Picture Quote #1

My own experience is that once a story has been written, one has to cross out the beginning and the end. It is there that we authors do most of our lying... one must ruthlessly suppress everything that is not concerned with the subject. If, in the first chapter, you say there is a gun hanging on the wall, you should make quite sure that it is going to be used further on in the story Picture Quote #1

You’ll understand, I’m sure that I’m chasing the merest sliver of color. It’s my own fault. I want to grasp the intangible. It’s terrible how the light runs out. Color, any color, lasts a second, sometimes 3 or 4 minutes at most Picture Quote #1

The truth is that I don’t like rehearsals. I get embarrassed hearing my own work. I assume that the cast is embarrassed to sing the stuff Picture Quote #1

I didn’t think it was fair to pretend to give of myself when I was so selfishly consumed with my own drives Picture Quote #1

I almost never start with an image. I start with a painting idea, an impulse, usually derived from my own world Picture Quote #1

You can’t live in the past, and I don’t. I’m not nostalgic about my own work at all Picture Quote #1

I did not kill my father, but I sometimes felt I had helped him on his way. And but for the fact that it coincided with a landmark in my own physical growth, his death seemed insignificant compared to what followed Picture Quote #1

Concepts can never be presented to me merely, they must be knitted into the structure of my being, and this can only be done through my own activity Picture Quote #1

I’ve worked with more than 50 directors and I’ve paid attention since day one. That’s pretty much been my education, apart from studying art history and shooting with my own cameras. I’ve seen 50 different sets of mistakes and 50 different ways of achieving Picture Quote #1

My own eyes are no more than scouts on a preliminary search, for the camera’s eye may entirely change my idea, even switch me to different subject matter. So I start out with my mind as free from image as the silver film on which I am to record, and I hope as sensitive Picture Quote #1

I am an arrogant and impatient listener, but in the case of a few composers, a very few, when I hear a work I do not like, I am convinced that it is my own fault. Verdi is one of those composers Picture Quote #1

I thought the best thing that I could do would be to clean up my own act, in terms of whatever.. childhood wounds were left Picture Quote #1

When I play my own music, or when I play new music, there’s much more stress and intensity of thinking about how I’m going to make it work! Picture Quote #1

Physically, I have to get a lot better,... I have to play these three setters and the points are going to go on and on. This is not something that is going to happen overnight. I am only 18 and this is going to take time. My body is still growing and I’m still adjusting to my own body Picture Quote #1

Well my own impression of my musical pieces is that no matter how long I’ve been at it, there’s not much improvement. So that’s kind of regrettable Picture Quote #1

I find it hard to work with other musicians because I know from experience that when they play, they play with their feeling, and that restricts me because I know I want to play in my own particular way Picture Quote #1

Of course I will look at anything, but I have not got the time or the patience to keep on looking at art that I know could be better. I don’t want art that needs fixing, I want art that sends me back to the studio to fix my own Picture Quote #1

I’m an artist because that’s what I was best at as a kid. It was fun... I continue to be an artist... for the freedom that an art career can bring. I don’t need an alarm clock and I am my own boss Picture Quote #1

I may have had many projects, but I never was free to carry out any of them. It did me little good to be holding the helm; no matter how strong my hands, the sudden and numerous waves were stronger still, and I was wise enough to yield to them rather than resist them obstinately and make the ship founder. Thus I never was truly my own master but was always ruled by circumstances Picture Quote #1

I am bound by my own definition of criticism : a disinterested endeavour to learn and propagate the best that is known and thought in the world Picture Quote #1

I know from my own education that if I hadn’t encountered two or three individuals that spent extra time with me, I’m sure I would have been in jail Picture Quote #1

I am in no sense of the word a great artist, not even a great animator; I have always had men working for me whose skills were greater than my own. I am an idea man Picture Quote #1

I can never stand still. I must explore and experiment. I am never satisfied with my work. I resent the limitations of my own imagination Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in playing down to children, either in life or in motion pictures. I didn’t treat my own youngsters like fragile flowers, and I think no parent should Picture Quote #1

In my own experience, both personally and professionally, I’ve learned that you don’t wait to confront reality. It doesn’t get easier. It doesn’t get better. And, in some cases, if you don’t get the relevant information from people and act quickly, you start losing options. You’re into damage control Picture Quote #1
