One of Stephen's favorite quotes is:"Words, words, when spoken out loud for the sake of performance are music. They have rhythm and pitch and timbre and volume. These are the properties of music, and music has the ability to find us and move us and lift us up in ways that literal meaning can't. Do you see? (Aaron Sorkin) The good ended happily, and the bad unhappily. That is what Fiction means. (Wilde) Pizza be better than this. (Bad Boy Bubby) Always tell the truth. It's the easiest thing to remember. (Mamet) You know if you don't want to run again, I respect that. But if you don't run cause you think it'll be too hard or you think you're going to lose, well, God, Jed, I don't even want to know you. (Sorkin) Oh, what can you do with a man like that? What can you do? How can you dissuade his eye in a crowd from seeking out the cheek with acne, the infirm hand; how can you teach him to respond to the inestimable greatness of the race, the harsh surface beauty of life; how can you put his finger for him on the obdurate truths before ...Expand for more
which fear and horror are powerless? (John Cheever) The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. Now here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out and taken yours. (Alan Bennett) Standards are always out of date. That's what makes them standards. (Bennett) Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day. Pass it on, boys. That's the game I wanted you to learn. Pass it on. (Bennett) How you ah, how you coming on that novel you're working on? Huh? Got a a big, ah, big stack of papers there? Got a, got a nice little story you're working on there? Your big novel you've been working on for three years? -- Huh? Got a, got a compelling protaganist? Yeah? Got an obstacle for him to overcome? Huh? Got a story brewing there? Working on, working on that for quite some time. Huh? Yeah, talking about that 3 years ago. Been working on that the whole time? Nice little narrative, beginning, middle and end? Some friends become enemies, some enemies become friends? At the end your main character is richer from the experience? Yeah? Yeah? --- No, no, you deserve some time off. (Stewie) Smart people who love you will have your back. (Sorkin) A-HAAAAAAAA! (Partridge)".
