Write Quotes

Some directors expect you to do everything; write, be producer, psychiatrist. Some just want you to die in a tragic accident during the shooting so they can get the insurance Picture Quote #1

If you’ve ever wondered why some writers who, in your humble opinion, don’t write as well as you do yet are rich and famous while you struggle onward, this is the reason. They are great directors Picture Quote #1

If you’re still watching, write in and we’ll send you a fiver each Picture Quote #1

If a man means his writing seriously, he must mean to write well. But how can he write well until he learns to see what he has written badly. His progress toward good writing and his recognition of bad writing are bound to unfold at something like the same rate Picture Quote #1

As publishing has become less expensive, the urge to write my own self has become the opportunity to publish my own self. Everyone now can afford to preach in the desert Picture Quote #1

I don’t find a lot of people actually saying things through music any longer. They are not trying to say anything with their music, they just want to make money with it. I think it’s important to actually say something real, something meaningful, rather than just write some trash and try to sell it Picture Quote #1

You can’t write the same book twice. Though I’ve been in historical musical situations, I can’t go back and do that again. And though I run into artistic crises, they keep my life interesting Picture Quote #1

For a long time, I would write without music, because I thought it was distracting until I appreciated that it actually unlocks a certain unconscious productivity vault in my mind Picture Quote #1

I hope to make acting my career for the rest of my life, if I can. If acting doesn’t work out I’d love to produce, direct, or write. I just want to stay in this business. That would be my number one thing. I always want to be an actress Picture Quote #1

When you have finished analyzing all the variations and gone along all the branches of the tree of analysis you must first of all write the move down on your score sheet, before you play it Picture Quote #1

I found that married life gave me the necessary freedom to follow an ambition which had been with me since childhood; and so I started to write in earnest Picture Quote #1

Art arises from loss. I wish this weren’t the case. I wish that every time I met a new woman and she rocked my world, I was inspired to write my ass off. But that is not what happens. What happens is we lie around in bed eating chocolate and screwing. Art is what happens when things don’t work out, when you’re licking your wounds. Art is, to a larger extent than people would like to think, a productive licking of the wounds Picture Quote #1

Each time I write, each time the authentic words break through, I am changed. The older order that I was collapses and dies. I lose control. I do not know exactly what words will appear on the page. I follow language. I follow the sound of the words, and I am surprised and transformed by what I record Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Don’t sacrifice what you want most for what you want now. Write down what you want most and see it often Picture Quote #1

When we see the human race, we must see before all else environment and food. Historians write about social change without taking these factors into account. This is why it is difficult for them to see the reasons decline and prosperity in society Picture Quote #1

You will feel discouraged; you will lose confidence in your abilities; you will be bored with the characters–and the only way to overcome these obstacles is to write your way through them. And writing always works Picture Quote #1

I don’t get boy bands these days. Thye don’t write their own songs and everything is choreographed from their dance moves to how they have sex with each other after the show Picture Quote #1

I was suppose to write a book about being a mom, to organize my thoughts into chapters and figure out a structure to hang them on, to make a lasting point, but somehow I decided to go ahead and become a mother instead Picture Quote #1

Keeping a slow hunch alive poses challenges on multiple scales. For starters, you have to preserve the hunch in your own memory, in the dense network of your neurons. Most slow hunches pass in and out of our memory too quickly, precisely because they possess a certain murkiness. You get a feeling that there’s an interesting avenue to explore, a problem that might lead you to a solution, but then you get distracted by more pressing matters and the hunch disappears. So part of the secret of hunch cultivation is simple: write everything down Picture Quote #1

When you think intensely and beautifully, something happens. That something is called poetry. If you think that way and speak at the same time, poetry gets in your mouth. If people hear you, it gets in their ears. If you think that way and write at the same time, then poetry gets written. But poetry exists in any case. The question is only: are you going to take part, and if so, how? Picture Quote #1

Without a mission and a sense of whom you write for, you aren’t worth reading Picture Quote #1

If you can discover what you like, if you can discover what you truly believe about most of the major matters of life, you will be able to write a story which is honest and original and unique Picture Quote #1

As I write in my book, there is a misnomer that destroying another person’s position is an effective and practical way to negotiate Picture Quote #1

Advertisements

I was four when I announced my ambition to write, eight when I began publishing such claims Picture Quote #1

With fiction, there’s no reason why everything you write shouldn’t be amazing. Nobody’s stopping you from making up better stuff Picture Quote #1

I definitely dislike pomposity and artifice. I hope that I’m not that. Once I write a song, it belongs to the world, and the way people perceive it, it’s cool Picture Quote #1

Write, write, and write some more. Think of writing as a muscle that needs lots of exercise Picture Quote #1

I’m skeptical of passive learning. If you don’t write down what you’re hearing and learning, what the odds you remember it? Picture Quote #1

Everything you need to know about life can be learned from a genuine and ongoing attempt to write Picture Quote #1
