Text Quotes

The reality is that we communicate with every part of our being, and there are times when we must use it all. When someone needs us, he or she needs all of us. There’s no text that can replace a loving touch when someone we love is hurting Picture Quote #1

The Russo brothers are the best people ever, and they cast me in ‘Happy Endings.’ I did text Joe Russo to say, ‘I don’t think my character dies, so if you need a local news cameraman to show up in ‘Captain America 2’... I know it doesn’t make sense, but just hear me out on this!’ He was really cool about it and turned me down right away Picture Quote #1

Use photos and videos often. The best startups post lots of imagery and videos. The worst ones? Text only Picture Quote #1

I have a color-coded computer spreadsheet that divides things down to chapter fragments. Each character’s point-of-view is a different color. The text of the manuscript is color-coded the same way. The last thing I do before submitting the manuscript is turn all those colors back to black Picture Quote #1

I like reading books with both hands, with my heart pumping, with blood on the page. So I’m interested in people who make stuff, and I’m interested in the lives that make the text. To read a book or watch a movie any other way, to me, personally, feels like a waste of time and misapplication of energy Picture Quote #1

I like to read and dream and create music that is based on the imagery of text. If you have the combination of a great book and a great filmmaker, what could be better for the composer? Picture Quote #1

A writer stops writing the moment he or she puts the last full stop to their text, and at that point the book is in limbo and doesn’t come to life until the reader picks it up and the reader flips the pages Picture Quote #1

A book is not necessarily made of paper. A book is not necessarily made to be read on a Kindle. A book is a collection of text, organized in one of a variety of ways. You could say that words printed on paper and bound between cloth covers will someday be obsolete. But if and when that day comes, there will still be a thing called books Picture Quote #1

Josiah has a tremendous reputation in the text. He rediscovered the Book of the Law; you remember how Hilkiah the High Priest somehow found it [2 Kings 22:8] Picture Quote #1

To compare books to computers, I mean, computers are the way to get books. That is the medium for distributing text because it doesn’t require paper Picture Quote #1

I’m totally normal. I love watching movies and hanging out with my friends at my house. I still go to the mall; I love to text and go on my computer. I’m totally normal - sounds kind of boring, right? Picture Quote #1

I think there’s a worry that an excessive use or an almost exclusive use of text and emails means that as a society we’re losing some of the ability to build interpersonal communication that’s necessary for living together and building a community Picture Quote #1

Most of us have to spend a lot of energy to learn how to drive a car. Then we have to spend the rest of our lives over-concentrating as we drive and text and eat a burrito and put on makeup. As a result, 30,000 people die every year in a car accident in the U.S Picture Quote #1

I don’t care about sex anymore. It’s a headache. It’s hard to trust people. You talk to a girl, and then she screenshots a text message Picture Quote #1

Unlike then, the mail stream of today has diminished by such things as e-mails and faxes and cell phones and text messages, largely electronic means of communication that replace mail Picture Quote #1

Technology and the Internet are not just changing politics here in the U.S. It’s also happening abroad. In the Philippines, where I grew up, grassroots organizers used text messaging to help overthrow a president Picture Quote #1

Twitter is incredibly useful. It’s a great example of how the Internet is changing the way we engage with information and text. Above all else, this change in the nature of engagement is fascinating for me as a writer Picture Quote #1

Too-broad questions, such as, What’s on your mind? are apt to be answered nothing nearly one hundred percent of the time. Be careful of slipping into psycho-speak, however. Kids pick up instantly your attempt at being a pseudo-shrink. Most resent it and are apt to tune out anything that sounds like you’re reading a script from the latest child-psychology text Picture Quote #1

Then one day I thought it would be wonderful to make a whole book, to make my text and my drawings together, and that’s how I started doing children’s books Picture Quote #1

Here’s a secret: fictive text doesn’t necessarily flow easily. Most of the time it’s more like cutting a highway through a mountain. You just have to keep working with your pick, chipping away at the rock, making slow progress Picture Quote #1

The great unmentionable evil at the center of our culture is monotheism. From a barbaric Bronze Age text known as the Old Testament, three anti-human religions have evolved -- Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. These are sky-god religions. They are, literally, patriarchal -- God is the Omnipotent Father -- hence the loathing of women for 2,000 years in those countries afflicted by the sky-god and his earthly male delegates Picture Quote #1

I go back and research, say, every reference to the Gorgons, and I find what the classical writers said about them and it’s so much richer than you might get in an average Greek mythology text. I feel like an archaeologist - I’m dusting off these things that people have not seen for thousands of years and bringing them into the modern world Picture Quote #1

Governmental surveillance is not about the government collecting the information you’re sharing publicly and willingly; it’s about collecting the information you don’t think you’re sharing at all, such as the online searches you do on search engines... or private emails or text messages... or the location of your mobile phone at any time Picture Quote #1

Many readers fail to realize this, but ‘The Color Purple’ is a theological text. It is about the reclamation of one’s original God: the earth and nature Picture Quote #1

When you teach on a familiar text, you’re capitalizing on common knowledge. When you teach on an unfamiliar text, you’re having to build a bridge of understanding, and we need to do that as well Picture Quote #1

On occasion, I like to reread my grandfather’s letters. While leafing through them, I’m saddened by what is being lost in modern communication. Soul-baring sentimentality isn’t typically poured into text messages, tweets and emails. All too often, personal connections are brushed aside for the sake of convenience in a fast-paced world Picture Quote #1

Around the time I began starving, in the early eighties, the visual image had begun to supplant text as culture’s primary mode of communication, a radical change because images work so differently than words: They’re immediate, they hit you at levels way beneath intellect, they come fast and furious Picture Quote #1

People live too much of their lives on email or the Internet or text messages these days. We’re losing all of our communication skills Picture Quote #1

I’ve never sent an email in my life. My kids laugh. I often hand the phone to them and say, ‘Can you text this message to somebody.’ I don’t even have a computer on my desk Picture Quote #1

In our world, we have so many ways we can escape with technology, like TV, Facebook, computers, text messaging and all that Picture Quote #1
