Page Quotes

There is a pretty girl on the face of the magazine and all I see is my dirty hands turning the page Picture Quote #1

When I was little, we had a Golden Book that had all these Disney characters in one portrait on the first page. My dad used to read from it every night. We’d play this game of find Pluto or find Donald Duck. He’d read us stories and do all the voices. Those are great memories Picture Quote #1

The first book I ever bought for myself was ‘One Fish Two Fish’ by Dr. Seuss. My favourite page shows two children carrying an enormous glass jar up some stairs in the dark. In the jar is a tusked beflippered creature floating in brine Picture Quote #1

Anything you can do to get more people to come to your live shows is good, because that’s where you can really do what you do. Everyone’s on the same page, and you don’t have to win strangers over as much Picture Quote #1

As an actor, you’re pretty much a hired gun. You are reading other people’s words off of a page and doing what they want you to do Picture Quote #1

I think when I’m drawing, I’m seeing what’s happening on the page almost as if it were unfolding like a movie in my head Picture Quote #1

Some things that I write, you’ll see a page with cartoon pictures or a drawing of a car - like a Ford - or a flag. I still do it on an occasion when a word is strange to me Picture Quote #1

I would like to say to children, ‘Don’t stop drawing. Don’t tell yourself you can’t draw.’ Everyone can draw. If you make a mark on a page, you can draw Picture Quote #1

I like books whose virtue is all drawn together in a page or two. I like sentences that don’t budge though armies cross them Picture Quote #1

Remember each new day you get to turn a page in your life and write your own story. So how do you choose to write it? Picture Quote #1

My experiences always influence my writing, but usually only on an emotional level. I have experienced death of a family member and it’s easy to dredge up those feelings and get them on the page Picture Quote #1

When I am writing a story it feels as real as the life I am experiencing off the page. It’s an emotional illusion, I guess Picture Quote #1

In many a piece of music, it’s the pause or the rest that gives the piece its beauty and its shape. And I know I, as a writer, will often try to include a lot of empty space on the page so that the reader can complete my thoughts and sentences and so that her imagination has room to breathe Picture Quote #1

One of the humbling things about having written more than one novel is the sense that every time you begin, that new empty page does not know who you are Picture Quote #1

I am not - thank heavens - one of those ‘driven’ writers who spend a fortnight buckled with empty fright over an untouched page only to wake at two in the morning feverish with paragraphs Picture Quote #1

I try to end every chapter with an air of suspense. I try to leave the reader wanting to turn the page Picture Quote #1

Writing the last page of the first draft is the most enjoyable moment in writing. It’s one of the most enjoyable moments in life, period Picture Quote #1

Daily papers in England used to have an entire page of the paper dedicated to what the Beatles had done the day before Picture Quote #1

I huff and puff and struggle with every sentence, paragraph and page - sometimes every word as well Picture Quote #1

I think everyone’s different but in comedy, I try to do my scene to make the director and the other actors laugh. If I can make them laugh and we have the same sensibility, then I’m on the right page Picture Quote #1

With the 39 Clues,’ we were making history jump out of the page for the readers, so they don’t know they’re learning. The kids can’t put the books down - it’s so exciting Picture Quote #1

A lot of biopics to me feel very much like someone is standing in front of the camera and is reading a Wikipedia page to you, like someone is reciting event. Did you know this happened? Did you know that happened? But Alan Turing’s life deserved a sort of passionate film, and an exciting film Picture Quote #1

All I’d wanted for so long was for someone to explain everything that had happened to me in this same way. To label it neatly on a page: this leads to this leads to this Picture Quote #1

I don’t know who said that novelists read the novels of others only to figure out how they are written. I believe it’s true. We aren’t satisfied with the secrets exposed on the surface of the page: we turn the book around to find the seams Picture Quote #1

The best way to show an emotion is not through a character’s words, but their smallest expressions - to take what an actor would visually do and try putting that down on the page for the reader to ‘see.’ Picture Quote #1

To attempt to write seriously is always, I feel, to fail - the disjunction between my beautifully sonorous, accurate and painfully affecting mental content, and the leaden, halting sentences on the page always seems a dreadful falling short Picture Quote #1

I know all’s fair in love and war but when you go off and try to be by yourself and it ends up on the front page of the press it’s frightening, knowing your life is under such scrutiny Picture Quote #1

I’ve worked on all sorts of things, like the sci-fi stuff for Vin Diesel, where the script is numbered and is in unphotocopy-able colours and your name is stamped into every page. And it doesn’t really help because it creates a false sense of specialness about the thing Picture Quote #1

I rewrote the ending to ‘Farewell to Arms,’ the last page of it, thirty-nine times before I was satisfied Picture Quote #1

I don’t use a stylist. I know what I like, so I do it myself. I rip things out from fashion magazines. It’s easy to order when the phone number is right on the page Picture Quote #1
