Thinking Quotes

I was thinking about time, how on a movie set the shot is maintained in the same time no matter how many takes and hours pass. Reflectors and lights are added, footprints are smoothed away, so that there are no telltale clues as the day wears on. When the shot is finished and the plugs are pulled, time seems to leap forward in a matter of seconds. Perhaps making movies is a step toward being able to move backward and forward and in and out of linear time Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to get so lost in thinking about me and talking about me all the time in interviews. It’s so nice to unwind and just look at other things and get out of yourself. It’s hard to detach myself from myself without neglecting myself. You know what I mean? I don’t want to get in to the habit of thinking about my career because when it comes down to it, it’s not really that important. I could die tomorrow and the world would go on Picture Quote #1

I tell people, if you’re thinking about suicide, all that stuff I’ve attempted and thought about it. If you think about it, life gets better. The key to life when it gets tough is to keep moving. Just keep moving Picture Quote #1

Sadness is a very interesting idea, this idea of sadness being some kind of default setting that artists will go into. And then I started thinking about this idea of sadness and happiness, and the idea that sadness is very loud, and happiness is quiet Picture Quote #1

What motivates me is an ideal of thinking about how football should be. And to try to get near this way of playing. And to try to improve all aspects of my personality that can help me get near this ideal way of playing football Picture Quote #1

What was I thinking? Fact is I wasn’t thinking. I didn’t want to think. I wanted to feel Picture Quote #1

I’d just like to see thinking come back in style. I haven’t heard a new idea in eight years. Let’s get ordinary people arguing and talking again. I want to trigger new circuits in their nervous systems. That’s the philosopher’s job and I am the most important philosopher at this time Picture Quote #1

I grew up thinking art was pictures until I got into music and found I was an artist and didn’t paint Picture Quote #1

Someday, when I’m awfully low, and the world is cold, I will feel a glow just thinking of you, and the way you look tonight Picture Quote #1

Anyone can take pictures. What’s difficult is thinking about them, organizing them, and trying to use them in some way so that some meaning can be constructed out of them. That’s really where the work of the artist begins Picture Quote #1

And once again I believe that nothing that’s important really becomes lost. We just delude ourselves, thinking that we own the things, the moments and the others. Still with me are all the dead persons who I loved, all the friends who turned away, all the happy days that faded. I lost nothing but the illusion that everything could be mine forever Picture Quote #1

The best way to deal with excessive thinking is to just listen to it, to listen to the mind. Listening is much more effective than trying to stop thought or cut it off Picture Quote #1

Most of us spend so much time thinking about where we have been or where we are supposed to be going that we have a hard time recognizing where we actually are Picture Quote #1

I was thinking that maybe when everything around you changed all the time, it was nice to know that something would always be the same Picture Quote #1

I am working on it but I don’t thinking having a good serve is the most important thing. It is about a lot of things coming together that makes you a good player Picture Quote #1

I can do one or the other. Lovemaking or thinking. But not both at the same time Picture Quote #1

I would spend hours and hours gazing at the stars and wondering, what’s out there? Sometimes I wondered if maybe there was another girl like me on another planet some place gazing at the stars and thinking about the same things Picture Quote #1

It doesn’t matter if you and everyone else in the room are thinking it. You don’t say the words. Words are weapons. They blast big bloody holes in the world. And words are bricks. Say something out loud and it starts turning solid. Say it loud enough and it becomes a wall you can’t get through Picture Quote #1

Users of clichés frequently have more sinister intentions beyond laziness and conventional thinking. Relabelling events often entails subtle changes of meaning. War produces many euphemisms, downplaying or giving verbal respectability to savagery and slaughter Picture Quote #1

I love contemporary poetry because it moves between what we call poetry and what we call philosophy. It joins these fields and makes writing more natural, as in how it is lived in the person. We don’t separate thinking from feeling in real life, so why should we separate it in writing? Picture Quote #1

I never decide if an idea is good or bad until I try it. So much of what gets in the way of things being good is thinking that we know. And the more that we can remove any baggage we’re carrying with us, and just be in the moment, use our ears, and pay attention to what’s happening, and just listen to the inner voice that directs us, the better Picture Quote #1

Teachers shouldn’t make the mistake of always thinking they’re the smartest person in the room Picture Quote #1

My thinking changes all the time. People may read an interview I gave a year before and assume that’s who I still am. But usually I’ve changed altogether Picture Quote #1

The food we eat masks so much cruelty. The fact that we can sit down and eat a piece of chicken without thinking about the horrendous conditions under which chickens are industrially bred in this country is a sign of the dangers of capitalism, how capitalism has colonized our minds. The fact that we look no further than the commodity itself, the fact that we refuse to understand the relationships that underly the commodities that we use on a daily basis. And so food is like that Picture Quote #1

You don’t think your way to creative work. You work your way to creative thinking Picture Quote #1

Rabbits live close to death and when death comes closer than usual, thinking about survival leaves little room for anything else Picture Quote #1

No one … can entirely step out of his time, that despite his keenness of vision his thinking is in many ways bound to be influenced by the mentality of his time Picture Quote #1

Of course, this is the season to be jolly, but it is also a good time to be thinking about those who aren’t Picture Quote #1

We are the producers of our own thinking. Thought is not something that happens to us, but something that we do to ourselves Picture Quote #1

I often make the mistake of thinking that something that is obvious to me is obvious to everyone else Picture Quote #1
