Write Quotes

I just know that I love to write songs, and I have for a long time Picture Quote #1

It’s usually a big kind of vent of frustration or anger or sadness that puts me in the right frame of mind to write. It’s such a cliche to say that artists write when they’re down, but it’s true for me. It’s a relief to get out what’s eating away at my heart or my soul or my head Picture Quote #1

The only really safe thing to do is to write a diary of where you’ve been, what time you went to bed, what you ate. If I wrote honestly about everything I think it’d be a disaster. It would cause a lot of trouble Picture Quote #1

I record stuff all the time, like little vocal things. I write random things down... Sometimes I just get things stuck in my head and I record them, and that actually becomes a song quite a lot of the time Picture Quote #1

I don’t write songs that don’t affect me on some level, because I figure if I am not moved by it, if its not something that I have a longing to celebrate or to be reminded of, if it doesn’t affect me, then how can I possibly think it is going to affect somebody else. My touchstone is write something that matters Picture Quote #1

To me, it’s all about the song. Songs are what make me excited. You hear a great song and you want to record it or get a great idea and you want to write it Picture Quote #1

I don’t really know what inspires me to write the music I do, but usually, the music will set the tone for the lyrics Picture Quote #1

I don’t listen to music when I write. I need silence so I can hear the sound of the words Picture Quote #1

I take six or seven years to write really small books. There is a kind of aesthetic of leanness, of brevity Picture Quote #1

If it takes you seven years to write each novel, you need a patron. And I would rather have my corporate self as my patron than any arts council or bestower of grants Picture Quote #1

It’s harder to write a story with just two people in a room than with 50 characters Picture Quote #1

I would love to make a bunch of country demos and write country songs for really great country singers Picture Quote #1

I try to be upbeat. I read this book which tells you to write down everything that you’re grateful for each day. Now I’m constantly noticing all the little things that make me joyful Picture Quote #1

Don’t try to write too much in a single session. One thousand words a day is quite enough. Stop after about four or five hours Picture Quote #1

I write as well as I can. I’m a journalist at heart, so it’s the story that matters Picture Quote #1

Yes, I did lock myself in my room for about two years and write some songs and things like that. But I don’t feel like I missed out on a whole lot Picture Quote #1

I write for myself. I don’t write because I have a record coming out. I write because I want to. I need to Picture Quote #1

I believe in collaboration. I think that is the most entertaining and effective way to write for me, personally Picture Quote #1

I just like to act and write and produce. To me, making movies is the ultimate goal Picture Quote #1

The one thing I’ve learned in the last ten years is that successful artists don’t get paid to write and sing songs, they get paid for the psychological roller coaster they’re going to have to ride. That’s the hard work Picture Quote #1

I love romantic comedies. I have a deep respect for them. I think they’re really difficult to write and write well Picture Quote #1

I can still boss people around. I can still write. I can still read. I can still eat, and I can still have very strong views Picture Quote #1

I vowed to myself that when I grew up and became a theoretical physicist, in addition to doing research, I would write books that I would have liked to have read as a child. So whenever I write, I imagine myself, as a youth, reading my books, being thrilled by the incredible advances being made in physics and science Picture Quote #1

We can summarize electricity, magnetism and gravity into equations one inch long, and that’s the power of field theory. And so I said to myself: I will create a field theory of strings. And when I did it one day, it was incredible, realizing that on a sheet of paper I can write down an equation which summarized almost all physical knowledge Picture Quote #1

I used to write in bed, starting when I woke up. I believe that creative work comes from our subconscious mind, so I try to keep the gap between sleep and writing as minimal as possible Picture Quote #1

You have a strange relationship with calamity when you’re a writer: you write about it; as an artist, you objectify and fetishize it. You render life into material, and that’s a creepy thing to do Picture Quote #1

When I think of folk music, I think of topical songs. And I don’t write topical songs Picture Quote #1

I write by myself initially. That’s the way I’ve always written, just working on pure thought by myself. Then I bring it to the table with whoever I’m collaborating with Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in writer’s block or waiting for inspiration. If you’re a writer, you sit down and write Picture Quote #1

Everyone has his own sound. I’m not going to presume how to tell anybody how to write Picture Quote #1
