At the end of the day, sleep is a barometer of your emotional health. And so if you're not in the right place where you need to be, then you're going to have voices keeping you up at night because you have to work through those issues Picture Quote #1

I had a blog where I tried to be transparent while giving away nothing. I tweeted and Facebooked badly. As a writer, your ‘voice’ is your calling card, yet my voice was becoming indistinguishable from billions of other voices Picture Quote #1

You know, you grow up with the image of John Travolta being super cool - ‘Saturday Night Fever,’ Brian De Palma, handsome young God... he, in reality, is a very silly man. And I mean that in a good way. He’ll walk around the set talking in little weird voices, making people laugh Picture Quote #1

Having a conversation on a landline is more intimate than talking to someone in person. Your voices are so clear and close - you’re in each other’s heads Picture Quote #1

I suspect that we are all recipients of cosmic love notes. Messages, omens, voices, cries, revelations, and appeals are homogenized into each day’s events. If only we knew how to listen, to read the signs Picture Quote #1

The heavenly motions... are nothing but a continuous song for several voices, perceived not by the ear but by the intellect, a figured music which sets landmarks in the immeasurable flow of time Picture Quote #1

As all historians know, the past is a great darkness, and filled with echoes. Voices may reach us from it; but what they say to us is imbued with the obscurity of the matrix out of which they come; and, try as we may, we cannot always decipher them precisely in the clearer light of our own day Picture Quote #1

I detest my past, and anyone else’s. I detest resignation, patience, professional heroism and obligatory beautiful feelings. I also detest the decorative arts, folklore, advertising, voices making announcements, aerodynamism, boy scouts, the smell of moth balls, events of the moment, and drunken people Picture Quote #1

Seeds carry life from generation to generation without end. Through the seeds speak the voices of the ancestors. Each time we plant a seed, we become ancestors for the generations to come Picture Quote #1

Voices surround us, always telling us to move faster. It may be our boss, our pastor, our parents, our wives, our husbands, our politicians, or, sadly, even ourselves. So we comply. We increase the speed. We live life in the fast lane because we have no slow lanes anymore. Every lane is fast, and the only comfort our culture can offer is more lanes and increased speed limits. The result? Too many of us are running as fast as we can, and an alarming number of us are running much faster than we can sustain Picture Quote #1

Writers have to have a knack for listening. I need to be able to hear what is being said to me by the voices I create Picture Quote #1

I don’t know how to answer. I know what I think, but words in the head are like voices underwater. They are distorted Picture Quote #1

Nothing can stand in the way of the power of millions of voices calling for change Picture Quote #1

It was always late at night, when everything and everyone else was quiet, that those voices would rise like ghosts, soft and haunting, filling your mind until sleep finally came Picture Quote #1

So don’t stop moving forward. For a while, you may feel as though you’re taking two steps forward, one step back. And there may be some personal heartache along the way. But when you look your little ones in the eye, you will find your voice and take a stand for them. We are their voices. And we must have the courage to stand up for them, whatever the odds or however powerful the opposition might be Picture Quote #1

I think every fiction writer, to a certain extent, is a schizophrenic and able to have two or three or five voices in his or her body. We seek, through our profession, to get those voices onto paper Picture Quote #1

They talked about nothing in particular, sentences that had meaning only in the sound of the voices, in warm gaiety, in the ease of complete relaxation Picture Quote #1

... So, take what’s inside you and make big, bold choices. And for those who can’t speak for themselves, use bold voices. And make friends and love well, bring art to this place. And make this world better for the whole human race Picture Quote #1

The time will come when our silence will be more powerful than the voices you strangle today Picture Quote #1

Two types of voices command your attention today. Negative ones fill your mind with doubt, bitterness, and fear. Positive ones purvey hope and strength. Which one will you choose to heed? Picture Quote #1
