Reading Quotes

The publishing industry, unsurprisingly, is full of different people who love different things and express that love in different languages. Find the people, the editors and agents, with whom you share some language, and some sense of what makes literature worth reading Picture Quote #1

It took a lot to understand that the interest in both writing a story and reading it is not in the objective dangers someone takes. You don’t have to fight snakes or wake up in a strange apartment to have a story; it’s about what goes on inside your mind and soul Picture Quote #1

I was a very difficult child, and the time I spent reading was about the only peace I gave my mother Picture Quote #1

Sometimes, if you really don’t know how you feel about a topic, reading how both sides argue it can help Picture Quote #1

I’m against people reading statements. When you read statement, I automatically take it as though you can’t talk, and it’s not real Picture Quote #1

I started off believing all men were equal. I now know that’s the most unlikely thing ever to have been, because millions of years have passed over evolution, people have scattered across the face of this earth, been isolated from each other, developed independently, had different intermixtures between races, peoples, climates, soils... I didn’t start off with that knowledge. But by observation, reading, watching, arguing, asking, that is the conclusion I’ve come to Picture Quote #1

I feel like reading really defined me as a writer because I lived my life outside of my own body for so much of my life and I loved it. I’ve always been a reader. I think living all those stories served me to naturally take that next step to creating Picture Quote #1

I never understood why anyone would do magazines. Like, why would someone put their face out there so much? It’s because those people reading magazines will go see the movie, so you do it Picture Quote #1

I grew up reading the newspapers, mostly the sports section. I was a wrestler and would check to see if I was ranked Picture Quote #1

Just like I am obsessed with the history of fashion, I love reading about the history of makeup Picture Quote #1

We’d never expect to understand a piece of music on one listen, but we tend to believe we’ve read a book after reading it just once Picture Quote #1

I have to say that movies have as much impact on me as music. And that I learned as much about narrative from movies as I did from reading novels, how to arrange stories, how to juxtapose things Picture Quote #1

You can’t know what a book is about until the very end. This is true of a book we’re reading or writing Picture Quote #1

I read every screenplay that was being sent to the other directors. None were being sent to me, but I was reading what others were choosing and what the best writers were writing Picture Quote #1

I love reading. I’m very much into history, novels, biographies and I have a wide range of thrillers Picture Quote #1

I’m not a big fan of table reads or sitting around a table and reading a script. I’d rather do it on set and do it for real Picture Quote #1

... teaching cannot be a process of transference of knowledge from the one teaching to the learner. This is the mechanical transference from which results machinelike memorization, which I have already criticized. Critical study correlates with teaching that is equally critical, which necessarily demands a critical way of comprehending and of realizing the reading of the word and that of the world, the reading of text and of context Picture Quote #1

A reader does not suddenly comprehend what is being read or studied, in a snap, miraculously. Comprehension needs to be worked forged, by those who read and study; as subjects of the action, they must seek to employ appropriate instruments in order to carry out the task. For this very reason, reading and studying form a challenging task, one requiring patience and perseverance Picture Quote #1

The possibilities for immortality are endless. Here you sit reading these words, a butterfly resting on a flower! Picture Quote #1

I don’t read young adult or children’s books, now that my grandchildren are beyond the age of my reading to them. I read reviews, and so I’m aware of what’s out there. But I tend not to read the books Picture Quote #1

I hate it when I’m reading a comic, and the dialogue looks like stickers stuck on top to explain what’s going on. For me the best is when your eye goes in a certain point and moves through the composition and then springs out on the dialogue, or gets confused in the image and then goes to the dialogue for an explanation Picture Quote #1

The fact that people are already reading and loving something I wrote is still hard to believe Picture Quote #1

I like reading, writing, hiking, camping, free running, surfing, rock climbing, long boarding, and so much more Picture Quote #1

Seeing people who are actually reading your book and listening to the wide variety of reactions they have to it, is really special Picture Quote #1

It’s good to know how to read, but it’s dangerous to know how to read and not how to interpret what you’re reading Picture Quote #1

I try to be a good human being and keep up with what’s going on in the world by reading and staying in touch with the current events Picture Quote #1

I’m never sure who I’m writing for, or who’s reading me, but I definitely see myself in conspiracy with my readers Picture Quote #1

Book love is something like romantic love. When we are reading a really great book, burdens feel lighter, cares seem smaller, and commonplaces are suddenly delightful. You become your best optimistic self. Like romantic love, book love fills you with a certain warmth and completeness. The world holds promise Picture Quote #1

In our land of opportunities and distractions, it’s hard to devote our attention to the quiet pleasures of reading. It’s as if we live our lives in a noisy restaurant and can’t have the intimate conversation we most yearn for Picture Quote #1

I like to invest as a performer in the director’s vision and then bring a sense of reality to whatever I’m doing, whether it’s comedy or whether it’s drama, and trust that they’re going to tell me if something’s reading as funny or if it’s reading as dramatic or reading in the right tone Picture Quote #1
