Surprise Quotes

The colicky baby who becomes calm, the quiet infant who throws temper tantrums at two, the wild child at four who becomes seriousand studious at six all seem to surprise their parents.

Practise wonder today - be present, begin again, know nothing, and allow everything to surprise you, inspire you, excite you, entertain you, teach you. Be fully open to life, today, and let yourself live wonder-fully Picture Quote #1

So much of television is incredibly predictable. You watch the first five minutes and you know where it’s going to go. If you can just create an element of surprise in both the storytelling and tone of a show, you’re going to be way ahead of the pack Picture Quote #1

Each one seems to be, in some way, essentially different from the others, and each is a surprise to me. I think that making books, or any kind of art, might also be like mining.

It may come as a surprise but I also really started to get into history while I was at school. I found the projects about World War Two fascinating - perhaps when I get the time again, I could pick up where I left off Picture Quote #1

My four years in Russia end, then, in dramatic fashion: with a textbook Soviet-style expulsion. I am the first western staff correspondent to suffer this fate since the end of the Cold War. I’m stunned. But my expulsion is not, I reflect, a surprise. It’s something I have always accepted as a real, if far-fetched, possibility Picture Quote #1

People tend to play in their comfort zone, so the best things are achieved in a state of surprise, actually Picture Quote #1

Detroit is drunken idiots. It was no surprise to me. I performed with Kenny Rogers for one year as his opening act, and I got to visit every major American city and notice the audience, and Detroit was one of the worst Picture Quote #1

My characters surprise me constantly. My characters are like my friends - I can give them advice, but they don’t have to take it. If your characters are real, then they surprise you, just like real people Picture Quote #1

War contributes greatly to global warming, which shouldn’t surprise us. All those bombs going off, all those rockets, all those planes and helicopters. All that fuel of various kinds being used. It pollutes the air and water of this very fragile and interconnected planet Picture Quote #1

The depth of John Candy’s talent did surprise me. He was one of my all-time favorite leading men Picture Quote #1

Writing about someone well known removes that obligation of defending it as a subject, but it also means that some of the surprise and freshness is already gone. It’s so different - in some ways much harder for me Picture Quote #1

I’m sure there are a few things in my CD collection that might surprise people. I like classical music, the blues, and I’m a big fan of alternative rock Picture Quote #1

Find answers in your weakness and surprise in your strength and always remember the golden rule every failure has HOPES Picture Quote #1

Many savage nations worship trees, and I really think my first feeling would be one of delight and interest rather than of surprise, if some day when I am alone in the woods one of the trees were to speak to me Picture Quote #1

In retrospect, I can see that President Brezhnev was quite proud of the limited agreement that he had concluded in Vladivostok; and to have a new American president come in and say, That is not good enough - let’s do much more, and do it quite rapidly, took him by surprise Picture Quote #1

When I see a fan coming over, I can’t help but make an assumption about what they want to talk about. A middle-aged American woman will head over, and I think, ‘Game of Thrones.’ Turns out it’s ‘The Tudors’ or ‘Elementary’ or ‘The Hunger Games.’ It’s always a surprise Picture Quote #1

I think it might surprise the average person how angry people can get over the comics Picture Quote #1

Time and again-from the collapse of the Soviet Union to the events of 9/11 to the onset of the Arab Spring-events have caught the experts, whether in government or on the outside, completely by surprise. Business owners with comparable performance records go bust. Brokers lose their clients. Physicians get sued for malpractice. Yet think-tankers and policy wonks continue to opine, never pausing to reflect on-or apologize for-their spotty records Picture Quote #1

A critic should always strive to recapture the sense of wonder and surprise with which he first beheld a now-familiar work of art Picture Quote #1
