Story Quotes

So ultimately I am looking for a story that has some value and is important and is entertaining Picture Quote #1

Antwone’s story was a story of hope and that’s what appealed to me. I needed hope myself at that time. I think all actors give up at some time and think they’re never going to make it Picture Quote #1

A compelling story, even if factually inaccurate, can be more emotionally compelling than a dry recitation of the truth Picture Quote #1

When you are working on a script, the story itself is not difficult. You say this would happen and then this, resulting perhaps in this. And the dialogue you make as true as you can Picture Quote #1

You must find the note, the correct key, for your story. If you find it, everything will work. If you do not, everything will stick out like elbows Picture Quote #1

Every story was being made up. My true friends weren’t the ones speaking. It was people who never knew me, making up stories. Even my local paper put a $1,000 bounty out for information about my whereabouts Picture Quote #1

I look for two things when I am about to launch into a book. First, there has to be a dramatic arc to the story itself that will carry me, and the reader, from beginning to end. Second, the story has to weave through larger themes that can illuminate the world of the subject Picture Quote #1

To me, country music tells a story about, and deals with, the way people live their lives and what they do Picture Quote #1

The unfolding of a story is both as exciting and as difficult for each and every novel I’ve written, regardless of time and place Picture Quote #1

I have always tended toward a lush prose style, but I take care to modulate it from story to story and to strip it down entirely when necessary Picture Quote #1

So now it is time to disassemble the parts of the jigsaw puzzle or to piece another one together, for I find that, having come to the end of my story, my life is just beginning Picture Quote #1

On the day when man told the story of his life to man, history was born Picture Quote #1

I tried to keep it secret, but the story got into the newspapers. It was more difficult for my family, who couldn’t understand why the media wouldn’t leave me in peace Picture Quote #1

It’s rare that you cut out something that is really good. You screen all of it, and when the audience doesn’t respond, you cut out whatever is holding the story down Picture Quote #1

Writing a story or a novel is one way of discovering sequence in experience, of stumbling upon cause and effect in the happenings of a writer’s own life Picture Quote #1

Conservative talk radio works because there are lots of conservatives who are convinced that they are not getting the whole story from the regular media Picture Quote #1

An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful Picture Quote #1

It’s a tough job to tell a story when the audience already knows the ending, and the ending is bleak Picture Quote #1

The first rule of life is to reveal nothing, to be exceptionally cautious in what you say, in whatever company you may find yourself. If you have a secret, you have only to whisper it to your dearest friend with the strictest injunction that it will go no further, and within half a day the story is all over town, and when you do make what would seem to be a perfectly sensible remark, you will find it reported in the most grotesque form, thus incurring no end of criticism to rebound upon you Picture Quote #1

The decision to kiss for the first time is the most crucial one in any love story Picture Quote #1

In most sciences one generation tears down what another has built and what one has established another undoes. In mathematics alone each generations adds a new story to the old structure Picture Quote #1

The story drove the book. That had a very seminal effect on the way I saw writing and storytelling. If you can set a character in a story that is compelling and has a backbone, you draw people in Picture Quote #1

Everything has to be pulling weight in a short story for it to be really of the first order Picture Quote #1

It’s probably why I’m a short story writer. I tend to remember things in the past in narrative form, in story form, and I grew up around people who told stories all the time Picture Quote #1

The radios are going to dictate. That’s another fight. That’s another story there. I wish they just let it be Picture Quote #1

Too often a story is examined through biased eyes, without a sensitivity for everyone who forged it. It’s seen from the point of view of the great white savior, and rarely is the perspective of the slave a part Picture Quote #1

My mother tells this story that when I first went to school, I thought I was going to help the teachers. I didn’t realize I was going to get educated Picture Quote #1

I describe my plots as follows; A character is walking down the street when all of a sudden a piano falls on them. They spend the rest of the story digging out from under that piano. How they dig, how long and how well, this all depends entirely on the character Picture Quote #1
