Paper Quotes

To rehearse imaginary conversations on paper is called literature. To do so out loud is called madness Picture Quote #1

What moves me about... what’s called technique... is that it comes from some mysterious deep place. I mean it can have something to do with the paper and the developer and all that stuff, but it comes mostly from some very deep choices somebody has made that take a long time and keep haunting them Picture Quote #1

Setting up a system that rewards you for meeting your goals and has penalties for failing to hit your target is just as important as putting your goals down on paper Picture Quote #1

I have also a paper afloat, with an electromagnetic theory of light, which, till I am convinced to the contrary, I hold to be great guns Picture Quote #1

There’s definitely a lot of trash that comes with the prize of being famous. It’s a nice gift, but there’s a lot of wrapping and paper and junk to cut through. Back then, when a movie came out and people saw you on the street, their reaction was so supercharged that it was scary. It would frighten other people. It used to really rattle me. I mean, everybody would love to have their clothes torn off by a mob of girls, but being screamed at is different Picture Quote #1

I still have my laptop but I haven’t used it. I’m a paper man, not electronic Picture Quote #1

I think what has happened to our basketball team, we’ve been badly distracted. They’re not reading too many positive things in the paper Picture Quote #1

The drawings that interest me most are made with closed eyes. With eyes closed, I feel my hand slide down on the paper. I have an image in mind, but the results always surprise me Picture Quote #1

Mathematics is the cheapest science. Unlike physics or chemistry, it does not require any expensive equipment. All one needs for mathematics is a pencil and paper Picture Quote #1

When one studies strongly radioactive substances special precautions must be taken if one wishes to be able to take delicate measurements. The various objects used in a chemical laboratory and those used in a chemical laboratory, and those which serve for experiments in physics, become radioactive in a short time and act upon photographic plates through black paper. Dust, the air of the room, and one’s clothes all become radioactive Picture Quote #1

Until there’s a public commitment, and action to back that commitment, a policy is only words on paper Picture Quote #1

A right without an attendant responsibility is as unreal as a sheet of paper which has only one side Picture Quote #1

The incessant driving of the pen over paper causes intense fatigue of the hand and the whole arm because of the continuous... strain on the muscles and tendons Picture Quote #1

I didn’t write my speech until the night before, and even then I refused to write it out like I would say it, preferring to keep cribbed notes I could come back to if necessary. I wanted this to feel like a conversation because it was what I wanted to say that mattered, not how it looked on paper Picture Quote #1

Writing is just having a sheet of paper, a pen and not a shadow of an idea of what you are going to say Picture Quote #1

Once the grammar has been learned, writing is simply talking on paper and in time learning what not to say Picture Quote #1

The fact is that relatively few photographers ever master their medium. Instead they allow the medium to master them and go on an endless squirrel cage chase from new lens to new paper to new developer to new gadget, never staying with one piece of equipment long enough to learn its full capacities, becoming lost in a maze of technical information that is of little or no use since they don’t know what to do with it Picture Quote #1

I love paper. A nice thick pile of it and a pencil, and I’m content Picture Quote #1

We might as well reasonably dispute whether it is the upper or the under blade of a pair of scissors that cuts a piece of paper, as whether value is governed by demand or supply Picture Quote #1

Neither a state nor a bank ever have had unrestricted power of issuing paper money without abusing that power Picture Quote #1

I swear I have at least one good song idea a day. But if I don’t get pen to paper in ten seconds, it’s gone forever Picture Quote #1

All songs are already perfectly written. It is the writer’s job to find it and get it on paper Picture Quote #1

The abstract, especially in those rough sketches, is very important to me, perhaps because of my advertising background, where layout is so important. Sometimes those first few lines cut the paper into such satisfying shapes that I don’t want to go on, but I always do, adding nostrils and nipples and bootstraps until I have filled the paper up as usual Picture Quote #1

I cut coupons, love specials and believe in buying toilet paper and toothpaste in bulk. It’s just who I am Picture Quote #1

It’s just money; it’s made up. Pieces of paper with pictures on it so we don’t have to kill each other just to get something to eat Picture Quote #1

After all these years, I’ve done well and I’m cool. I feel comfortable in my skin, I’ve saved some paper, everybody’s healthy, my kids are beautiful and smart, doing different things, it’s all good Picture Quote #1

I never did like the idea of sitting on newspapers. I did it once, and all the headlines came off on my white pants. On the level! It actually happened. Nobody bought a paper that day. They just followed me around over town and read the news on the seat of my pants Picture Quote #1

When you consider all the writers who never even had a machine. Who would have given an eyeball for a good typewriter. Any typewriter. All the ones who wrote on a matchbook covers. Paper bags. Toilet paper. Who had their writing destroyed by their jailers. Who persisted beyond all odds Picture Quote #1

Thanks to my effort in the last 40 years, there has been more paper and film wasted Picture Quote #1

We attempted perfection; we wanted an object to be without flaw, so we cut the papers with a razor, pasted them down meticulously, but it buckled and was ruined... that is why we decided to tear prewrinkled paper, so that in the finished work of art imperfection would be an integral part, as if at birth death were built in Picture Quote #1
