Text Quotes
Listening is crucial for any novelist. Stories and ideas abound. We too often talk about ourselves and block out the richness others may offer (Talk Quotes)
You’ve got 3 minutes to tell the world something. Are you going to talk to them about being wasted in your front yard because you couldn’t park your car, or are you going to talk to someone about something that could actually help them? (Talk Quotes)
It would be so great to have someone my own age to talk to, even if it was just about books (Talk Quotes)
Technology is seductive when what it offers meets our human vulnerabilities. And as it turns out, we are very vulnerable indeed. We are lonely but fearful of intimacy. Digital connections and the sociable robot may offer the illusion of companionship without the demands of friendship. Our networked life allows us to hide from each other, even as we are tethered to each other. We’d rather text than talk (Talk Quotes)
Girls can be so petty and jealous. I swear they’re worse than guys sometimes. Except they’re all quiet about it. They sugarcoat it or else they talk behind each other’s backs. It’s seriously twisted (Talk Quotes)
All talk is lies in a way. Only the doing of a thing can make it true (Talk Quotes)
The conversation was mesmerizing, not for its content but for the cadences of the talk, the rhythm we fell into when we were alone, now as before. Every conversation between friends or lovers creates its own easy or awkward rhythms, hidden talk that runs like a subterranean river under even the most banal exchange (Talk Quotes)
Words ride on the energy of tone, its warmth or coldness; think of tone as the music of how words are expressed. You want this music to be soulful, whether you’re giving sweet talk or tough love (Talk Quotes)
Over the course of several articles, I will give you the tools to become a sentence connoisseur as well as a sentence artisan. Each of my lessons will give you the insight to appreciate fine sentences and the vocabulary to talk about them (Talk Quotes)
Unfortunately, we’re using the same language to talk about the language we’retalking about (Talk Quotes)
Every day of your life, you change the world. Absolutely, yes, we’re out to change the world. I mean, you change it whether you like it or not. You wake up and you talk to the grocer. You either kick your dog or you pet him. There’s a million decisions you have every day where you change the world (Talk Quotes)
Those moments in between the moments, those are the most interesting. What’s unspoken, the way we talk around things, the way our actions are inconsistent with what we’re feeling, how anger and affection manifest themselves in strange ways at inappropriate times (Talk Quotes)
From my mom and dad, because they’re happily married for a long time: Just listen. Listen to him. I’m so independent and driven and stubborn. Just let him talk. It’s about not being so stubborn and having to win every argument. My parents set a great example. They love each other and take care of each other so much (Talk Quotes)
We are so impressed by scientific clank that we feel we ought not to say that the sunflower turns because it knows where the sun is. It is almost second nature to us to prefer explanations... with a large vocabulary. We are much more comfortable when we are assured that the sunflower turns because it is heliotropic. The trouble with that kind of talk is that it tempts us to think that we know what the sunflower is up to. But we don’t. The sunflower is a mystery, just as every single thing in the universe is (Talk Quotes)
I think for love to work you have to be with someone who you want to talk to before going to bed at night (Talk Quotes)
Telling takes away the need to write. It relieves the pressure. And once that tension dissipates, so does the need to relieve it. First write it, then we’ll talk about it (Talk Quotes)
Perfume follows you; it chases you and lingers behind you. It’s a reference mark. Perfume makes silence talk (Talk Quotes)
It is better to be silent and be real than to talk and not be real (Talk Quotes)
Home to me is the world because my books have been translated into more than 30 languages. People feel they know me and the minute they talk about my life or books I feel at home. Home is where you are appreciated, safe and protected, creative, and where you are loved – not where you are put in prison (Talk Quotes)
Some girls talk to the boys in the chat room, my girls talk to the boys in the backroom (Talk Quotes)
I’ve been covering the art industry for nine years, and I still don’t feel like I have a clear grasp on what an art consultant does. What’s the difference between a dealer and an art consultant? Who are they? What’s their day to day like? So I asked a few private dealers, consultants and curators to talk about what they do. Everyone told me a different story (Talk Quotes)
My real log is written in the sea and sky; the sails talking with the rain and the stars amid the sounds of the sea, the silences full of secret things between my boat and me, like the times I spent as a child listening to the forest talk (Talk Quotes)
People love to talk but hate to listen. Listening is not merely not talking, though even that is beyond most of our powers; it means taking a vigorous, human interest in what is being told us. You can listen like a blank wall or like a splendid auditorium where every sound comes back fuller and richer (Talk Quotes)
Your body is your subconscious mind and you can’t heal it by talk alone (Talk Quotes)
Trying to talk somebody out of the stuff that they enjoy in life is like trying to talk them out of their faith or their sexuality. It’s a pointless exercise that can never be anything but acrimonious and will only highlight unnecessary amounts of difference about things that ultimately don’t really matter. Buy the steak you like, worship the God you love, neck with the people that you treasure and don’t worry about the numbers (Talk Quotes)
This it is to be a man of the highest type: to be and not seem; to do and not simply to talk; to have the right ideal, the true motive and patiently to transform conduct in accordance with it (Talk Quotes)
If you say someone is thrilled, it implies talk of an exciting project. I’m wary of such talk (Talk Quotes)
That’s one of the things books do. They help us talk. But they also give us something we all can talk about when we don’t want to talk about ourselves (Talk Quotes)
When I talk about unrequited love, most of you probably think about romantic love, but there are many other kinds of love that are not adequately returned, if they are returned at all. An angry adolescent may not love her mother back as her mother loves her; an abusive father doesn’t return the innocent open love of his young child. But grief is the ultimate unrequieted love. However hard and however long we love someone who has died, they can never love us back. At least that is how it feels (Talk Quotes)
You can talk any redneck into a challenge. That’s why so many rednecks die in strange ways (Talk Quotes)
