Story Quotes

Every success story has a parent who says, 'over my dead body.' Every success story has an old person who walks up to you and says, when you're acting the fool, 'you know I worry about you sometimes.' Picture Quote #1

There was a reason my first substantial role after rehab was to play a maniac whose personal story ended badly. I knew what it was like to go those dark places. I played a guy who died as a result of his abuse Picture Quote #1

I decided to devote my life to telling the story because I felt that having survived I owe something to the dead. And anyone who does not remember betrays them again Picture Quote #1

Love is a piano dropped from a fourth story window, and you were in the wrong place at the wrong time Picture Quote #1

But what I hope for from a book - either one that I write or one that I read - is transparency. I want the story to shine through. I don't want to think of the writer Picture Quote #1

Please, your story, or I shall offend the dignitaries of my kingdom by yawning at holy things Picture Quote #1

I think a little menace is fine to have in a story. For one thing, it's good for the circulation Picture Quote #1

No, that part's not true! That's a joke - lie. I'm not going to lie to you in this story because I want you to know that the rest of it is true Picture Quote #1

Everything changes once we identify with being the witness to the story, instead of the actor in it Picture Quote #1

Only meaning can make a difference and we all know there's no meaning. All stories express a desire for meaning, not meaning itself. Therefore any difference knowing the story makes is a delusion Picture Quote #1

She will prolong her life by the length of her story, even though time will wear on inexorably as she tells it, thus depriving her of the chance to have a new experience Picture Quote #1

Every man has his excuses, and the more vile the man becomes, the more touching the story has to be. What is my story now, I wonder? Picture Quote #1

Ah. My story. Are you certain you wish to hear it? It is long, unlikely, and remarkably unedifying - shameful, even, to come from a minister's lips. Blasphemous, too, properly regarded Picture Quote #1

In the hands of vicious men, a mob will do anything. But under good leaders it's quite a different story Picture Quote #1

Gods often contradict our fondest expectations. What we anticipate does not come to pass. What we don't expect some god finds a way to make it happen. So with this story Picture Quote #1

When one side only of a story is heard and often repeated, the human mind becomes impressed with it insensibly Picture Quote #1

Many people have their reputations as reporters and analysts because they are on television, batting around conventional wisdom. A lot of these people have never reported a story Picture Quote #1

I think that the decision to nominate the story for a Pulitzer is of minimal consequence. I also think that it won is of little consequence. It is a brilliant story - fake and fraud that it is Picture Quote #1
