Cover Quotes

During our first meeting, Tony Iommi was a great jazz guitarist, his capabilities cover all styles - Black Sabbath has even narrowed his horizons Picture Quote #1

Don’t take purposeless people as your leaders. Their life is like an empty book with a nice cover paper and you have attempted to buy it. Of which use will it be to you for you to read blank pages Picture Quote #1

The concept of loyalty is distorted when it is understood to mean blind acceptance. It is correctly interpreted when it is assumed to cover honest criticism Picture Quote #1

When I was seven or eight years old, I began to read the science-fiction magazines that were brought by guests into my grandparents’ boarding house in Waukegan, Illinois. Those were the years when Hugo Gernsback was publishing ‘Amazing Stories,’ with vivid, appallingly imaginative cover paintings that fed my hungry imagination Picture Quote #1

My chest ached, my body speaking a language my head didn’t quite understand.I waited.But Grace, the only person in the world I wanted to know me, just ran a wanting finger over the cover of one of the new hardcovers and walked out of the store without ever realising I was there, right within reach Picture Quote #1

Never judge a book by it’s cover or who you’re going to love by your lover Picture Quote #1

Any anxieties publishers have about putting a child on the front cover of a book who isn’t white is very old fashioned Picture Quote #1

If you’ve written a powerful book about a woman and your publisher then puts a ‘feminine’ image on the cover, it ‘types’ the book Picture Quote #1

Never have a picture of a well-adjusted African on the cover of your book, or in it, unless that African has won the Nobel prize Picture Quote #1

A great comic-book cover occurs when it gets a potential reader to pick the book up and start thumbing through it. That’s a comic cover’s job: Attract someone’s attention, and persuade them to try the issue out Picture Quote #1

You go into the book store, there’s the cut-out of Dr. Phil, and then the dreaded women’s health section where every book, instead of the menopause book with the fanged Medusa head on the cover that might be more pertinent, you always see a flower and a poppy and a daisy and a stethoscope Picture Quote #1

Commercial books don’t even get covered. The reason why so many book reviews go out of business is because they cover a lot of stuff that nobody cares about. Imagine if the movie pages covered none of the big movies and all they covered were movies that you couldn’t even find in the theater? Picture Quote #1

I used to want covers that represented the book’s contents very closely and were also pretty. Many folks automatically believe that this is what makes a good cover. But I’ve changed my mind about this. While the cover should not lie (by implication or outright), its job is simply to say: ‘Pick me up!’ to someone who might like the book Picture Quote #1

Covers matter. In my experience, a different cover can make you think you’re reading an entirely different book Picture Quote #1

If you put a pink cover on something, critics make a certain set of assumptions and may not even read the book. But my readers are happy with it Picture Quote #1

With a hardcover, you get two chances, a year apart, for the book to make an impact - often with a new cover featuring artfully crafted snippets of reviews, a new marketing campaign and maybe even a new publisher Picture Quote #1

I don’t know David Cameron very well. I like him. I think you can judge a book by its cover - whoever said you can’t is wrong - that’s the whole point of nature giving us intuition, instinct and so on. I think the cover is pretty good Picture Quote #1

Every reader wants the same thing: to open the cover of a book and watch the words explode like fireworks off the page Picture Quote #1

Would you buy a book proudly stating on the cover that its reader is a dummy? Or would you think of course it’s ironic? Picture Quote #1

I’m interested in so many different things and I’d like to cover a lot of territory. I’m trying to see my show as the Sunday ‘Times.’ You have the Arts and Leisure section, you have the Op-Ed page, you have the Book Review... even the Style section has those wonderful essays about relationships Picture Quote #1

I remember going into a bookshop, and the only book I saw with a black child on the cover was ‘A Thief in the Village’ by James Berry, and I thought, ‘Is this still the state of publishing?’ Then I thought, ‘Either I can whine about it or try to do something about it.’ Picture Quote #1

These days, no celebrity on a magazine cover, including Brad Pitt, Oprah Winfrey, Julia Roberts, or Leonardo DiCaprio, could possibly match the visual punch of Alfred E. Neuman, the gap-toothed, grinning boy, goofily peeking out at us on the newsstand Picture Quote #1

That’s what I try to do as a writer and as the editor of HuffPost: cover important stories in an obsessive way that enables them to break through the din of our multimedia universe Picture Quote #1

I didn’t want my gender to determine whether or not I could cover breaking news Picture Quote #1

Advertisements

Accuse a person of breaking all Ten Commandments, and you’ve written the promo blurb for the dust cover of his tell-all memoir Picture Quote #1

It is a very trying task for deceitful people, always to have to cover up their lack of sincerity and to repair the breaking of their word Picture Quote #1

I colour my hair mousy brown and I wear makeup only on stage. I use Laura Mercier - something called Biscuit, I think. I run one tiny sponge over my face and cover the red blotches. If I’ve got some rouge, I’ll bung it on my mouth and cheeks Picture Quote #1

I don’t know if this is too weird to say, but this is completely surreal for me. Bizarre. The cover of ‘Teen Vogue’ has been on my bucket list forever Picture Quote #1

I always have my journal with me. It was handmade by a guy at the San Telmo market in Buenos Aires. If you go there he can make you one. It’s leather and bronze and I’m able to replace the paper when it runs out. It has a lion on the cover that I say is there to protect my thoughts Picture Quote #1

The Tort Tax adds to the cost of everything we buy because businesses and manufacturers have to cover themselves and their employees - just in case they get sued by a greedy personal injury lawyer Picture Quote #1
