Paper Quotes

I’m really no different than anybody else; except that sometimes I get my name in the paper Picture Quote #1

Putting words on paper regularly is part of the necessary discipline of writing. A journal is a great way to do that Picture Quote #1

Drawing is what you see of the world, truly see... And sometimes what you see is so deep in your head you’re not even sure of what you’re seeing. But when it’s down there on paper, and you look at it, really look, you’ll see the way things are... that’s the world, isn’t it? You have to keep looking to find the truth Picture Quote #1

Remember technology does not make good work. You can still write a poem on a brown paper bag, and haiku is just as profound as the pyramids Picture Quote #1

I have always avoided photographing in the studio. A woman does not spend her life sitting or standing in front of a seamless white paper background. Although it makes my life more complicated, I prefer to take my camera out into the street... and places that are out of bounds for photographers have always had a special attraction for me Picture Quote #1

Writing is about a blank piece of paper and leaving out what’s not supposed to be there Picture Quote #1

I’m not a suicidal person at all, but on paper it seems that I am. I think I’m really quite horrible to myself in many ways. You always think it’s going to be fine, the body will repair itself. There will be another chance. But I’m 33 now. The body won’t keep repairing itself. You know when you can flick a coin and catch it on your elbow, and flick it up and catch it on the back of your head? And then you can’t even catch it with two hands any more. You realise something is wrong Picture Quote #1

If they keep exposing you to education, you might even realize some day that man becomes immortal only in what he writes on paper, or hacks into rock, or slabbers onto a canvas, or pulls out of a piano Picture Quote #1

Now everybody who knows anything at all knows perfectly well that even a business letter does not deserve the paper on which it is written unless it contains at least one significant phrase that is worth waking up in the night to remember and think about Picture Quote #1

You might find it hard to imagine gravity as a weak force, but consider that a small magnet can hold up a paper clip, even though the entire earth is pulling down on it Picture Quote #1

Whenever I found something remarkable, I have thought it my duty to put down my discovery on paper, so that all ingenious people be informed thereof Picture Quote #1

I may not be the strongest guy or the most well armed, but you can put me in a room with a pencil and a piece of paper and I can kill anybody Picture Quote #1

Fiction ought to announce the problems, dramatize the problems, display them. Yet offer no set answer. An answer would solve the mystery. Writing fiction, for me, is about putting on paper my obsessive interest in something mysterious. I may figure out the source of the mystery, the things that brought some action or image to my mind, but to make an equation of it would ruin the story Picture Quote #1

I’ve always known that the best part of writing occurs before you’ve picked up a pen. When a story exists only in your mind, its potential is infinite; it’s only when you start pinning words to paper that it becomes less than perfect. You have to make your choices, set your limits. Start whittling away at the cosmos, and don’t stop until you’ve narrowed it down to a single, ordinary speck of dirt. And in the end, what you’ve made is not nearly as glorious as what you’ve thrown away Picture Quote #1

I think I did pretty well, considering I started out with nothing but a bunch of blank paper Picture Quote #1

Understand that relationships are more important than contracts. Business deals are relationships between people. The signed piece of paper is important, but it’s merely the result of the relationship, not the cause. If the relationship crumbles, the contract won’t save you, although it could be very lucrative for your lawyer Picture Quote #1

I remember the first time I saw him. He was 13 and just floated over the ground like a cockier spaniel chasing a piece of silver paper in the wind Picture Quote #1

The mathematician who pursues his studies without clear views of this matter, must often have the uncomfortable feeling that his paper and pencil surpass him in intelligence Picture Quote #1

As fascinated as I was by words on paper, it was matched by my fascination with words in people’s mouths. The spoken word. And that is the world of theatre Picture Quote #1

You would think I would recycle by the way I found my last chick... cause all she wants is paper or plastic Picture Quote #1

In the world of physics we watch a shadowgraph performance of the drama of familiar life. The shadow of my elbow rests on the shadow table as the shadow ink flows over the shadow paper. It is all symbolic, and as a symbol the physicist leaves it... The frank realization that physical science is concerned with a world of shadows is one of the most significant of recent advances Picture Quote #1

There are cases where you design something that looks good on paper and there’s only one small part of it that’s fun. You have to focus on that and throw the rest away Picture Quote #1

We need deliberately to call to mind the joys of our journey. Perhaps we should try to write down the blessings of one day. We might begin; we could never end; there are not pens or paper enough in all the world Picture Quote #1

Love, like light, is a thing that is enacted better than defined: we know it afterward by the traces it leaves on paper Picture Quote #1

Sometimes there’s no one to listen to what you really might like to say at a certain moment. The paper always listens Picture Quote #1

I’d rather be called a boy and play with paper airplanes than be called a man and play with a girl’s heart Picture Quote #1

I’d rather be a boy playing with a paper plane, than to be a grown man playing with a woman’s heart Picture Quote #1

I put a piece of paper under my pillow, and when I could not sleep I wrote in the dark Picture Quote #1

I can’t multiply myself out of a paper bag. But when it comes to roots, I’m your man Picture Quote #1

I want you to understand the words. I want you taste the words. I want you to love the words. Because the words are important. But they’re only words. You leave them on the paper and you take the thoughts and put them into your mind and then you as an actor recreate them, as if the thoughts had suddenly occurred to you Picture Quote #1
