Odd Quotes

You know, with the film industry crews, there’s an odd mix between a very technical and a very artistic approach to the work, and sometimes as a woman you have to be a little bit careful about how things come out because people don’t really want to listen if it’s in a certain emotional tone or too strong Picture Quote #1

You never come back, not all the way. Always there is an odd distance between you and the people you love and the people you meet, a barrier thin as the glass of a mirror, you never come all the way out of the mirror; you stand, for the rest of your life, with one foot in this world and no one in another, where everything is upside down and backward and sad Picture Quote #1

Odd as I am sure it will appear to some, I can think of no better form of personal involvement in the cure of the environment than that of gardening. A person who is growing a garden, if he is growing it organically, is improving a piece of the world. He is producing something to eat, which makes him somewhat independent of the grocery business, but he is also enlarging, for himself, the meaning of food and the pleasure of eating Picture Quote #1

I wrapped my arms around my knees and stared through the window’s wavy glass. The red velvet curtains were drawn around the tiny alcove, and I was enveloped by an odd sense of peace, knowing that in twenty minutes, the halls were going to be crowded; music was going to be blaring; and I was going to go from being an only child to one of a hundred sisters, so I knew to savor the silence while it lasted Picture Quote #1

It was an odd situation. For a century and a half, men got rid of their own hair, which was perfectly comfortable, and instead covered their heads with something foreign and uncomfortable. Very often it was actually their own hair made into a wig. People who couldn’t afford wigs tried to make their hair look like a wig Picture Quote #1

I sat on a toilet watching the water run thinking what an odd thing tourism is. You fly off to a strange land, eagerly abandoning all the comforts of home and then expend vast quantities of time and money in a largely futile effort to recapture the comforts you wouldn’t have lost if you hadn’t left home in the first place Picture Quote #1

Maybe they would look at each other and feel some odd yearning, but neither of them would know why. They would want to stop, but they would be embarrassed, and neither would know what to say. They would go their separate ways. Who knew? Maybe that happened every day to people who’d once loved each other Picture Quote #1

In the end, I am quite normal. I don’t have odd habits. I don’t dramatize. Above all, I do not romanticize the act of writing. I don’t talk about the anguish I suffer in creating. I do not have a fear of the blank page, writer’s block, all those things that we hear about writers Picture Quote #1

The odd thing is, I don’t consider what I do work, because it’s what I love. But it is also an enormous amount of pressure, and you have to work an enormous amount of hours Picture Quote #1

I just don’t talk about who I’m going out with, that’s it. It’s an odd thing to sit around describing yourself to 10 different people every 5 minutes yet it’s kind of therapeutic in a way Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been interested in shaping music in odd ways, with odd riffs and that’s been probably something that I’ve continued on with my studies with improvisation as I’m working with people Picture Quote #1

The odd thing is if you asked me to do the accent now I would find it very difficult unless I was also playing that part, because I associate it so much with entering into the role and stepping into someone else’s shoes Picture Quote #1

I was shocked. They were going to give me money to make this really odd show? Well, I still had little thought of it going to series, but I thought it was great that my next short film was going to be paid for Picture Quote #1

It is odd how learned persons fail to see that new terms and definitions are apt to mean new doubts and litigation Picture Quote #1

I find it odd that there’s such strong objection to what is a clear way to assure that our elections are reliable and we can do a recount if there are any questions Picture Quote #1

I’d rather be on a label that understands us and allows us to be a bit odd Picture Quote #1

When I look back over my novels what I find is that when I think I’m finished with a theme, I’m generally not. and usually themes will recur from novel to novel in odd, new guises Picture Quote #1

We’ve managed to keep a spirit of fun, I guess, of urban satire and finding new and odd interesting angles to the ways of life to put on the stage Picture Quote #1

It sounds odd coming from me, but I realize what I say and how I look has a great impact Picture Quote #1

I know we will look back on this and think how odd it was we were championing the rights of lone mothers to bring up their children on benefit Picture Quote #1

We take people to the threshold of religion. Our aim is to induce immediate experience that is beyond the odd, beyond the strange, and beyond the weird. It verges on the wholly other Picture Quote #1

You know, I hate to give advice because my life has been so odd that almost nothing that’s happened to me can apply Picture Quote #1

So it was sort of an odd time because I had been hired, but my paperwork hadn’t gone through. So I worked as an intern during the government shutdown, as an intern, but I already had a job Picture Quote #1

It has always been something I could do, and it may seem odd that in my case I seem to create an interesting narrative and frustrate the reader’s opportunities to follow it at every step Picture Quote #1

Yeah, I’ve had an odd youth, but I wouldn’t know the difference if I’d lived it any other way. and I wouldn’t change any of it because I quite like what I’m doing Picture Quote #1

Don’t think I’m so odd and strange... I’m not... I’m legion... I’ve lived alone, but I’m everywhere Picture Quote #1

Fate is like a strange, unpopular restaurant, filled with odd waiters who bring you things you never asked for and don’t always like Picture Quote #1

I looked about for some of my acquaintance, but in vain, for I saw not one person that I knew, which is very odd, for all the world seemed there Picture Quote #1

I pride myself on my capacity to perceive the transitory character of everything. An odd gift which has spoiled all my joys; better: all my sensations Picture Quote #1

Celebrity is a corrosive condition for the soul. I have tried to restrain its inroads on me, but there are odd corners of my character that have been harmed Picture Quote #1
