Text Quotes
I’m just a storyteller, and the cinema happens to be my medium. I like it because it recreates life in movement, enlarges it, enhances it, distills it. For me, it’s far closer to the miraculous creation of life than, say, a painting or music or even literature. It’s not just an art form; it’s actually a new form of life, with its own rhythms, cadences, perspectives and transparencies. It’s my way of telling a story  (Telling Quotes) Poetry is ultimately mythology, the telling of stories of the soul. The old myths, the old gods, the old heroes have never died. They are only sleeping at the bottom of our minds, waiting for our call. We have need of them, for in their sum they epitomize the wisdom and experience of the race  (Telling Quotes) There is nothing that is going to make people hate you more, and love you more, than telling the truth  (Telling Quotes) I wrote about drugs, and I didn’t think I was being unsafe or careless by writing about them. I didn’t want fans to think heroin was cool. But then I’ve had fans come up to me and give me the thumbs up, telling me they’re high. That’s exactly what I didn’t want to happen  (Telling Quotes) We had convinced ourselves that conditions wouldn’t be right for seeing spokes on the lit side of the rings until about 2007,... But this finding seems to be telling us that conditions on the dark side of the rings are almost as good right now for seeing spokes  (Telling Quotes) This is what I have come to know: Our past is never passed and there is no such thing as moving on. But there is this telling and there is such a thing as passing through  (Telling Quotes) The public is never wrong. When people don’t respond to what you do, they’re telling you something loud and clear. You’re just not listening  (Telling Quotes) If my house is on fire, I don’t need the fire chief telling me I should not have built the house out of wood. I need somebody to put the fire out  (Telling Quotes) Not telling is just as interesting as telling I have found. Why speech, that short verbal journey from inside to outside can be excrutiating under certain circumstances is fascinating  (Telling Quotes) To those who live by the land there must always come times of hardship, of fear and of hunger, even as there are years of plenty. This is one of the truths of our existence as those who live by the land know: that sometimes we eat and sometimes we starve. We live by our labours fromone harvest to the next, there is no certain telling whether we shall be able to feed ourselves and our children, and if bad times are prolonged we know we must see the weak surrender their lives and this fact, too, is within our experience. In our lives there is no margin for misfortune  (Telling Quotes) This is a difficult balance, telling the truth: how much to share, how much to keep, which truths will wound but not ruin, which will cut too deep to heal  (Telling Quotes) I learned another thing, which is that just because someone is eating the ashes of your protagonist doesn’t mean you stop telling the story  (Telling Quotes) I don’t drive, so one of my assistants drives me to my writing room, and I have a calendar on the wall telling me how much time I have left, and how far behind I am. I look at it and panic, and decide which scene to work on. And you sit there plonking notes until something makes sense, and you don’t think about it any more. Good tunes come when you’re not thinking about it  (Telling Quotes) Im pleased to say that in telling them, and especially my parents, they told me that they love me and they support me. And for young people out there, know that thats usually what the answer is  (Telling Quotes) The freedom of patient speech is necessary if the doctor is to get clues about the medical enigma before him. If the patient is inhibited, or cut off prematurely, or constrained into one path of discussion, then the doctor may not be told something vital. Observers have noted that, on average, physicians interrupt patients within eighteen seconds of when they begin telling their story  (Telling Quotes) Crime stories are our version of sitting round a camp fire and telling tales. We enjoy being scared under safe circumstances. That’s why there’s no tradition of crime writing in countries that have wars  (Telling Quotes) Are you too busy for improvement? Frequently, I am rebuffed by people who say they are too busy and have no time for such activities. I make it a point to respond by telling people, look, you’ll stop being busy either when you die or when the company goes bankrupt  (Telling Quotes) Keep your eye on the prize and focus on your mission. Remember what you’re trying to do, what your value is, why it’s important, and at the same time, change course and direction. If the market’s telling you different things how are you going to adjust to that?  (Telling Quotes) Telling about our lives is important for those who come after as, for those who will see our experience as part of their own historical struggle  (Telling Quotes) Change your conception of yourself and you will automatically change the world in which you live. Do not try to change people; they are only messengers telling you who you are. Revalue yourself and they will confirm the change  (Telling Quotes) If you take the hard numbers, then science is clearly telling us that we’re running out of time  (Telling Quotes) I believe that telling our stories, first to ourselves and then to one another and the world, is a revolutionary act. It is an act that can be met with hostility, exclusion, and violence. It can also lead to love, understanding, transcendence, and community. I hope that my being real with you will help empower you to step into who you are and encourage you to share yourself with those around you  (Telling Quotes) I think that stories, and the telling of stories, are the foundations of human communication and understanding. If children all over the country are watching films, asking questions and telling their stories, then the world will eventually be a better place  (Telling Quotes) As far as the writing goes, I started telling stories as soon as I could talk, and started writing them down as soon as I could string words together  (Telling Quotes) I write my own stories. I like telling stories to little children. I think the good thing about stories is they carry you to another place which you’ve never been. And you feel like you’re just enveloped by the book and the characters  (Telling Quotes) I’m telling you that you don’t have to choose between smart and sexy. You can have both. You are both  (Telling Quotes) The first track is the end of a string. At the far end, a being is moving; a mystery, dropping a hint about itself every so many feet, telling you more about itself until you can almost see it, even before you come to it. The mystery reveals itself slowly, track by track, giving its genealogy early to coax you in. Further on, it will tell you the intimate details of its life and work, until you know the maker of the track like a lifelong friend  (Telling Quotes) There is no such thing as bragging. You’re either lying or telling the truth  (Telling Quotes) We read novels because we need stories; we crave them; we can’t live without telling them and hearing them. Stories are how we make sense of our lives and of the world. When we’re distressed and go to therapy, our therapist’s job is to help us tell our story. Life doesn’t come with plots; it’s messy and chaotic; life is one damn, inexplicable thing after another. And we can’t have that. We insist on meaning. And so we tell stories so that our lives make sense  (Telling Quotes) Yeah, baby! I didn’t get to keep the pink baby doll outfit, but I wish I did because people are always telling me I should wear it  (Telling Quotes)
