Twist Quotes

The only way for you to keep your mind straight is to run from those who try to twist it around Picture Quote #1

In an ironic twist, I now see Good to Great not as a sequel to Built to Last, but more of a prequel. Good to Great is about how to turn a good organization into one that produces sustained great results. Built to Last is about how you take a company with great results and turn it into an enduring great company of iconic stature Picture Quote #1

Mark Twain didn’t psychoanalyze Huck Finn or Tom Sawyer. Dickens didn’t put Oliver Twist on the couch because he was hungry! Good copy comes out of people, Johnny, not out of a lot of explanatory medical terms Picture Quote #1

The narrative oftentimes is that everything that comes out of the hood is ‘real,’ and so I thought, ‘I’ll base it on the absurd, the not real. I’ll twist the idea of real on its head and see if I can get away with it. I’ll make paintings that come not from a place but through an abstract gaze.’ Picture Quote #1

Even in Australia I’d say 80 percent of our television was American. I grew up watching Alfred Hitchcock Presents and The Twilight Zone. I used to sit with my mum when I was just nine years old, trying to guess what the twist would be. I love that kind of thing Picture Quote #1

I no longer do a film for the wrong reasons. I have to be convinced ethically and morally. Both the director and I have to be on the same page. There are just five songs in most films these days, and they have to be amazing. There has to be a twist in the screenplay. The editing has to be crisp. Your hard work should show, but effortlessly Picture Quote #1

The running joke on set [of the Westworlds] was that everyone at some point thinks that they’re Anthony Hopkins. Like, Guys, I think I’m Dr. Ford. I’m Anthony Hopkins. That’s the twist. We love all of the theories. Part of the fun of that show is figuring it out Picture Quote #1

Warm Bodies’ is a love story: a zombie-human being love story. And people are comparing it to ‘Twilight,’ but I think it’s three times better. It has a comedic twist to it as well Picture Quote #1

As a child, I had a serious illness that lasted for two years or more. I have vague recollections of this illness and of my being carried about a great deal. I was known as the ‘sick one.’ Whether this illness gave me a twist away from ordinary paths, I don’t know; but it is possible Picture Quote #1

I believe in fairy tales. They are the basis of all our performance of storytelling and film-making - when we twist the real events of the world into something that offers us hope - and I believe in that Picture Quote #1

The venerable Robert E. Lee has taken some vicious hits, as dishonest or misinformed advocates among political interest groups and in academia attempt to twist yesterday’s America into a fantasy that might better service the political issues of today Picture Quote #1

It seems like people want to blame me for everything. Whenever any issue arises, I’m said to have been involved even if I’ve had nothing to do with it. That’s why I always focus on what I know, which is playing football, and try to be very careful with what I say because people always try and twist things Picture Quote #1

If you are starving and young and in search of answers as to why your life is so difficult, fundamentalism can be alluring. We know this for a fact because former members of Boko Haram have admitted it: They offer impressionable young people money and the promise of food, while the group’s mentors twist their minds with fanaticism Picture Quote #1

I feel that the characters in my book, if they were real, would be like, Seriously, another plot twist? Picture Quote #1

Be careful of love. It’ll twist your brain around and leave you thinking up is down and right is wrong Picture Quote #1

[Bob] Dylan’s broken-heart songs are so much better. Like Simple Twist of Fate Picture Quote #1

I think Canadians are tired of politicians that are spun and scripted within an inch of their life, people who are too afraid of what a focus group might say about one comment or a political opponent might try to twist out of context, to actually say much of anything at all Picture Quote #1

My favorite songwriting trick is writing something like ‘XO.’ In my brain, I thought, ‘This is probably going to be a love song. How can I change that and find ways to twist that.’ As a songwriter, it’s your job for the song to take twists and turns that people don’t expect Picture Quote #1

In lieu of those checks and balances central to our legal system, non-citizens face an executive that is now investigator, prosecutor, judge, jury and jailer or executioner. In an Orwellian twist, Bush’s order calls this Soviet-style abomination ‘a full and fair trial Picture Quote #1

The church is not going to survive if they are going to tell people that they have to twist their minds into 1st century pretzels Picture Quote #1

There are a number of writers who believe it is their duty to throw as many curve balls at the reader as possible. To twist and twist again. These are the Chubby Checkers of crime fiction and, while I admire the craft, I think that it can actually work against genuine suspense Picture Quote #1

I saw what luck and success I had as an opportunity to twist it up and do something different, so I’ve always sought out different genres and different kinds of characters Picture Quote #1

I’m not satirical in a traditional way. What I do is more about creating caricatures and cartoons. I am commentating on the nature of how we live through photography, and how you can twist an angle to create a different perception of a person Picture Quote #1

My mother was born in Burma, but my grandfather on her side was Indian-Spanish. So I have this quite exotic mix, which is reflected in my earliest memories, in our Wiltshire country kitchen, of gran, and aunts, cooking spicy stewy, casseroley curries, a version of Indian food with a Burmese twist Picture Quote #1

I compare the Twist to the electric light, The Twist is me, and I’m it. I’m the electric light Picture Quote #1

In my opinion, what ‘The Evil Dead’ is to horror, ‘Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters’ is to action-fantasy, with these horror elements and a steampunk-y twist Picture Quote #1

When I was first learning songs, I’d have a favorite song, and I’d take the chords and twist them around. I’d learn the chords and then play them backward. That was my first experimenting with writing a song Picture Quote #1

With a genre like film noir, everyone has these assumptions and expectations. And once all of those things are in place, that’s when you can really start to twist it about and mess around with it Picture Quote #1

Sure, the first light snowfall may be a chance to dance giddily, leaving squeaky footprints through the neighborhood, marking the runner’s right to the domain. But later drubbings of snow merely complicate running. Snow turns to ice, to slush, to ice again. Tire ruts twist ankles. New snow hides the hazards Picture Quote #1

Steve Rannazzisi, Nick Kroll, Paul Scheer, Jon Lajoie - and they’re such funny guys that they bring their own sort of twist to it all Picture Quote #1
