Basement Quotes

I thought the only way you can get into things is... through the basement... exactly where my studio was... I could creep upstairs and snatch at things, and bring them down with me... where I could munch away at them Picture Quote #1

My husband is a musician. He cooks and he’s a chef but he also, he makes basement recordings. So many people in my life make basement recordings, so I feel very lucky, I’m surrounded by very creative people Picture Quote #1

My father taught me photography. It was his hobby, and we had a small darkroom in the fruit cellar of our basement. It was the kind of makeshift darkroom that was only dark at night Picture Quote #1

Practical storage pieces are great if you have a basement or a garage. But when you actually live with them day in and day out, they should be beautiful to look at Picture Quote #1

It is fashionable nowadays to talk about the endless riches of the sea. The ocean is regarded as a sort of bargain basement, but I don’t agree with that estimate. People don’t realize that water in the liquid state is very rare in the universe. Away from earth it is usually a gas. This moisture is a blessed treasure, and it is our basic duty, if we don’t want to commit suicide, to preserve it Picture Quote #1

You want to know if we’re animals? When I’m on stage with the volume rippling my body like a glass of water and thousands of people are generating heat in my direction, there’s no time for thought. My basement facilities take over completely. Sure it’s animal. People might like to talk about art, but look where art is, in the gutter Picture Quote #1

My first job was washing dishes in the basement of a nursing home for $2.10 an hour, and I learned as much about the value of hard work there as I ever did later Picture Quote #1

Each sporadic burst of work, each minor success and disappointment, each moment of calm and relaxation, seemed merely a temporary halt on my steady descent through layer after layer of depression, like an elevator stopping for a moment on the way down to the basement Picture Quote #1

For every veteran who goes through a divorce, a wife goes through one, too. For every veteran alone in the basement, there is a wife upstairs, bewildered, isolated and in despair from the dark clouds of war that hangs over family life Picture Quote #1

The first time you buy a house you see how pretty the paint is and buy it. The second time you look to see if the basement has termites. It’s the same with men Picture Quote #1

Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was cut by the world’s great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs. I am haunted by waters Picture Quote #1

You can put me in the basement or the penthouse, it doesn’t matter to me Picture Quote #1

Some men can live up to their loftiest ideals without ever going higher than a basement Picture Quote #1

Weapons of mass destruction aren't pulled out of a black hat like a white rabbit at a magic show. They're produced in factories. There's science and technology involved. They're not produced in a hole in the ground or in a basement Picture Quote #1

Woe to us if we get our satisfaction from the food in the kitchen and the TV in the den and the sex in the bedroom with an occasional tribute to the cement blocks in the basement! Picture Quote #1

And how often do we meet the man who prefaces his remarks with: I was reading a book last night... In the too loud, overenunciated fashion of one who might be saying: I keep a hippogryph in my basement. Reading confers status Picture Quote #1

The cafeteria in the Chicago's Children's Memorial Hospital basement was the saddest place in the world-and forever it shall be-with its grim neon lights and gray tabletops and the diffuse foreboding of those who stepped away from suffering children to have a grilled cheese sandwich Picture Quote #1

It’s a dark, cool, quiet place. A basement in your soul. And that place can sometimes be dangerous to the human mind. I can open the door and enter that darkness, but I have to be very careful. I can find my story there. Then I bring that thing to the surface, into the real world Picture Quote #1
