Story Quotes

That’s the miracle of telling a story in film: You can express something inside someone’s mind Picture Quote #1

The way to start writing isn’t by writing at all. But by living. It isn’t about creating something from thin air, but about documenting our personal feelings about the things that we see. Or to put it crudely, how are you going to be a storyteller if you have no story to tell? Perhaps, in the end, there are no such things as creative people; they are only sharp observers with sensitive hearts Picture Quote #1

I want you to be with someone who really, really loves you. A wild love! A crazy love! I want yours to be the greatest love story of all time! Picture Quote #1

All nonfiction writers, whether they like it or not, are translators. The translator is the perfect journalist. The best journalism endeavors to convey an essential idea or story to an audience that knows very little about it, and that requires translation. To do this successfully, the writer must filter the idea through the prism of his eye, and his mind, and his writing style Picture Quote #1

Evolution is one of the most powerful and important ideas ever developed in the history of science. Every question it raises leads to new answers, new discoveries, and new smarter questions. The science of evolution is as expansive as nature itself. It is also the most meaningful creation story that humans have ever found Picture Quote #1

Opera is the ultimate art form. It has singing and music and drama and dance and emotion and story Picture Quote #1

What theatre started to look at much earlier than any other form was the internal operations of ordinary people, sometimes using mythic models in order to tell the story Picture Quote #1

Grace surrounds us and holds us like the sky holds everything in it … and as soon as I find a way to let go of my story, I keep seeing over and over again that grace is always here and it includes the forgetting and the remembering. The practice is the opening of the hand to catch the raindrops, which are always falling. If you don’t open your hand, you get wet, but you don’t get much to drink Picture Quote #1

I like movies about people and movies with characters; that’s what I’m drawn to as a person who likes to create these characters within the story, but I like it all, really Picture Quote #1

I’m not saying that everyone needs to be celibate, but you don’t need a romance to complete a story about a woman Picture Quote #1

I have definitely been curious and involved in the process; even as a young actor. I was always looking at where the camera was, what story it was telling. And as my experience grew, I wanted to know even more Picture Quote #1

I’ve always thought of, of a relationship with an actor to an audience as a marriage, you know. And a story, you know. And there are ups and downs, and you work through them, and you work with them Picture Quote #1

Reincarnation is a story we tell; then in the end it’s the story itself that is the reincarnation Picture Quote #1

It’s very hard when you’re doing a new play that you believe in, and you want to tell the story in the best way possible Picture Quote #1

If one story becomes too hot, then you can’t forget it. As an actor, you want to remain fluid Picture Quote #1

Well, you can’t improvise story, which is a fact. If you could, the budget would be insane Picture Quote #1

It’s not a filmmaker’s job to explain his technique but to tell his story the best way he can Picture Quote #1

I sign a film according to my instincts and everything in each department must be appealing be it story, character etc Picture Quote #1

I’m not a writer. I’m not smart. I couldn’t possibly even write my own story Picture Quote #1

I really believe that when you’re playing a character that everything is contained in the script. If I’m pulling from things from my own life, then I think I’m being disingenuous to the character and the story Picture Quote #1

We cannot carry the gospel to the poor and lowly while emulating the practices of the rich and powerful. We’ve been invited into a story that begins with humility and ends with glory; never the other way around Picture Quote #1

Music is what feelings sound like out loud. I sing songs that speak from my heart. They tell my story, how I feel Picture Quote #1

Lettering should be invisible. You shouldn’t notice it, unless it is a determined piece of storytelling in graphic design. Whether handmade or digital, the lettering should be easy on the eye and well placed. It should help tell the story and do nothing to get in the way of it Picture Quote #1

In the long run, the quality of your work is all that matters. That is your only resumé. Be professional. Make sure your editor or publisher can always reach you. Do what’s asked of you if your conscience can bear it. But know that, five years from now, as fans or prospective employers are looking over your published pages, no one will care that this story sucks because the publisher moved the deadline up or because the editor made you work an android cow into the story. All they will care about is what they see in front of them, and they will hold you responsible for it, no one else Picture Quote #1

You can’t just have a fight scene. In my opinion, it has to be a character moment or story moment Picture Quote #1

It is infinitely more useful for a child to hear a story told by a person than by computer. Because the greatest part of the learning experience lies not in the particular words of the story but in the involvement with the individual reading it Picture Quote #1

Every woman who appears wrestles with the forces that would have her disappear. She struggles with the forces that would tell her story for her, or write her out of the story, the genealogy, the rights of man, the rule of law. The ability to tell your own story, in words or images, is already a victory, already a revolt Picture Quote #1

It’s not easy to tell a story about writers and make that feel like a complete story and an interesting story Picture Quote #1

You think you want the blue skies, the open road, but really you want the tunnel, you want to know how the story ends Picture Quote #1

Writing is not magic. It’s a craft, a process, a set of steps. As with any process, things sometimes break down. Even in a good story, the writer runs into problems. So the act of writing always includes problem solving Picture Quote #1
