Screen Quotes

Sometimes you have to disconnect to stay connected. Remember the old days when you had eye contact during a conversation? When everyone wasn’t looking down at a device in their hands? We’ve become so focused on that tiny screen that we forget the big picture, the people right in front of us Picture Quote #1

Writing is hard work, and if anything’s true about the process, it’s that fact that a good story is hard to find and even trickier to get on paper. What’s less romantic than staring alone at a blank screen? And edgy? I’ve changed the cat little because I didn’t know what my characters were going to say next Picture Quote #1

People never explain to you exactly what they think and feel and how their thoughts and feelings work, do they? They don’t have time. Or the right words. But that’s what books do. It’s as though your daily life is a film in the cinema. It can be fun, looking at those pictures. But if you want to know what lies behind the flat screen you have to read a book. That explains it all Picture Quote #1

The speech we hear is an indication of that which we don’t hear. It is a necessary avoidance, a violent, sly, and anguished or mocking smoke screen which keeps the other in its true place. When true silence falls we are left with echo but are nearer nakedness. One way of looking at speech is to say that it is a constant stratagem to cover nakedness Picture Quote #1

I wished there was some kind of switch on my brain. That I could turn it off in the same way that I could turn off the television. Just click it off and immediately empty my mind of all these images and worrying thoughts. And simply leave a blank screen. Or if I could just remove my head and put it on the bedside table and forget about it until morning. And then attach it again when I needed it Picture Quote #1

That’s what I love about writing. Once you get the words down on paper, in print, they start to make sense. It’s like you don’t know what you think until it dribbles from your brain down your arm and into your hand and out through your fingers and shows up on the computer screen, and you read it and realize: That’s really true; I believe that Picture Quote #1

I’m a big believer in the negligee, that nearly invisible screen standing between you and the object of your desire Picture Quote #1

Because people see violence on the movie screen, they’re not going to go out and hold up a liquor store and kill somebody. It really doesn’t correlate Picture Quote #1

Peace as a positive condition of society, not merely as an interim between wars, is something so unknown that it casts no images on the mind’s screen Picture Quote #1

Acting in theatre or television or screen is only for the irrecoverably diseased, those so smitten with the need that there is no choice Picture Quote #1

A first kiss is hard to fake on screen. It’s tempting to practice before you shoot, but why blow that natural awkwardness on a rehearsal? There’s something so beautiful about it that can’t be faked Picture Quote #1

I think that to stop an offense, you must go to the heart of that offense. If it is a particular move, a screen, the break, an outstanding scorer, whatever it is that they like to do and rely on, you have to work in your plans on taking that completely or as much as possible away from them Picture Quote #1

We have a simple rule for switching. Anytime there is movement over the top of a screen, there has to be an automatic switch. If a blind pick is set on one of our defensive players, there has to be a switch. To play good pressure defense, you have to use the switch Picture Quote #1

As the watcher of the screen, you are perfect. The movie that is playing on the screen might be horrendous, but you are not the movie. You are what is watching the movie Picture Quote #1

Science appears to us with a very different aspect after we have found out that it is not in lecture rooms only, and by means of the electric light projected on a screen, that we may witness physical phenomena, but that we may find illustrations of the highest doctrines of science in games and gymnastics, in travelling by land and by water, in storms of the air and of the sea, and wherever there is matter in motion Picture Quote #1

Your heart weeps a little bit when you have to say goodbye to a crew you spend two months with, but when it comes to the part, when you live so close to someone for two months, it kind of fades away and then you see her again on screen later on Picture Quote #1

The partition separating life from death is so tenuous. The unbelievable fragility of our organism suggests a vision on a screen: a kind of mist condenses itself into a human shape, lasts a moment and scatters Picture Quote #1

Nature is seen by humans through a screen of beliefs, knowledge, and purposes, and it is in terms of their images of nature, rather than of the actual structure of nature, that they act. Yet, it is upon nature itself that they do act, and it is nature itself that acts upon them, nurturing or destroying them Picture Quote #1

I’m opposed to a lot of the time that we as a civilization have come to spend looking at screens. For my money, life is much delicious damn near everyplace but inside that screen Picture Quote #1

The sensitive plate, the gas which is ionised, the fluorescent screen, are in reality receivers, into another kind of energy, chemical energy, ionic energy... luminous energy Picture Quote #1

Visions of one powerful scene after another parade across his inner screen, each exploding with drama and meaning Picture Quote #1

Stefan would be so great for her, because it’s just so annoying watching those two on screen all the time! Picture Quote #1

If you asked me to seriously kiss someone on a screen, I would be very uncomfortable. But I will lick any part of your face Picture Quote #1

If you’re going to die on screen, you’ve got to be strong and in good health Picture Quote #1

I’m no actor and I never have been. What people see on the screen is me Picture Quote #1

Nobody has a perfect life. What you see on the screen is the best of the artist Picture Quote #1

In real life you get out of the shower naked, so why wouldn’t you do it on screen? It’s just a normal thing Picture Quote #1

I completely took off my eyebrows one time for a screen test. I hadn’t even gotten the role yet. So you have to have a commitment Picture Quote #1

I don’t know about making a passionate love story, even if it’s appealing for an audience to see a husband and wife make love on the screen Picture Quote #1

You want people to identify with the person on the screen or in the theater, but you don’t want them to identify with you as a person Picture Quote #1
