Write Quotes - Page 8

Film is the ultimate canvas, the elixir of art, and the magic of life.

Art is everywhere.

All art is a form of vulnerability because at least part of the artist goes into the piece.

Every work of art tells a story.

We are all born as storytellers. Our inner voice tells the first story we ever hear.

It is a dangerous thing to substitute reading or writing for living. Live first, then write.

There is no revelation in my words. I am merely stating what others have forgotten to write down.

Poetry isn’t an island, it is the bridge. Poetry isn’t a ship, it is the lifeboat. Poetry isn’t swimming. Poetry is water.

Be a good reader first, if you wish to become a good writer.

We are told that in translation there is no such thing as equivalence. Many times the translator reaches a fork in the translating road where they must make a choice in the interpretation of a word. And each time they make one of these choices, they are taken further from the truth. But what we aren’t told is that this isn’t a shortcoming of translation; it’s a shortcoming of language itself. As soon as we try to put reality into words, we limit it. Words are not reality, they are the cause of reality, and thus reality is always more. Writers aren't alchemists who transmute words into the aurous essence of the human experience. No, they are glassmakers. They create a work of art that enables us to see inside to help us understand. And if they are really good, we can see our own reflections staring back at us.

Writing is like breathing for my soul.

The personal screenplay- where you dive into the terrifying depths of your soul, unearth the most intimate details about yourself, and put it on paper for the world to see. Proceed with caution, for madness lies ahead.

Writing in the dark is hard, but you have to light your own candle and do it anyway.

Give all of life’s oxygen to the fire that is your soul.

Fly with a kind heart, a light spirit, and a resilient soul.

I have the heart of an artist and the soul of a writer.

Good food warms the heart and feeds the soul.

Epiphanies awaken the soul.

If you don’t think screenwriting is a work of art, good luck in your life without a soul.

Write what speaks to your soul.

...and you will hold me with your wondering eyes in the serenity of purest mind at the dreams edge of my quiet golden shores accompanied by the melodies of emerald blue rippling waves where I will always remain voicing harmony in the over the rainbow soothing memories of your heart...

Close your eyes. Hear the silent snow. Listen to your soul speak.

Crying cleanses the soul.

The pages afforded glimpses into my soul where I'd hidden it, behind masks of paper and ink.

Rachel L. Schade

It is better for a soul to write the wonders of time while there is still breath.

Lailah Gifty Akita

I think deeply and write feelings from my soul.

I grasp words for the sake of clutching My mind considers them heart touchingRight then I write for my reader's pleasureNot knowing what distance a soul can measure

We write to strengthen our soul and the spirit of other souls.

Lailah Gifty Akita

When your heart is open, your eyes see the beauty that is all around you.

We are artists. When we can’t find the beauty, we create it.

Breathe in the beauty all around you.

Time unfolds beauty, wonder, and mystery to reveal the auspicious tapestry of life.

With grace and beauty, feel.

Find beauty in the madness.

Stories change the world.

Like a flower pressed flat and dried, we try to hold it still and say, this is exactly how it was the day I first saw it. But like the flower, the past cannot be trapped that way. It loses its fragrance and and its vitality, its fragility becomes brittleness and its colors fade. And when next you look on the flower, you know that it is not at all what you sought to capture, that that moment has fled forever.

Think not of the fragility of life, but of the power of books, when mere words have the ability to change our lives simply by being next to each other.

Think not of the fragility of life, but of the power of books, when mere words can change our lives simply by being next to each other.

I write our names on the page.What of it, if the paper will be burned?I write our names in the sand.What of it, if the shore will be washed by waves?I write our names on trees that will be cutand benches that will be painted,but what of it?I will keep on writing our namesbecause in this world of ephemera, You and I are the only constant.

This poem was meant to be unwritten. But I am writing it now and have thereby changed destiny.

[We're] going to change the world. One day they'll write about us. You'll see.

Viola Gregg Liuzzo

Intuition is truth.

When a writer's heart is filled with the music of her soul, her words sing.

Poets, you always write about women worth dying for. Write, for a change, something about the ones worth living for!

Ljupka Cvetanova

What is life? Life is living in this moment, experiencing and experimenting but experience isn’t life. Life is reflecting and meditating but reflection isn’t life. Life is helping and guiding but philanthropy isn’t life. Life is eating and drinking but food isn’t life. Life is reading and dancing but art isn’t life. Life is kissing and pleasuring but sex isn’t life. Life is winning and losing but competition isn’t life. Life is loving and caring but love isn’t life. Life is birthing and nurturing but children aren’t life. Life is letting go and surrendering but death isn’t life. Life is all these things but all these things aren’t life. Life is always more.

Comfort yields complacency. Break free.

A fleeting second on someone's news feed,No dearth of meanings for those who read,Not my stories but 'tis what I think,I say I don't write poems, I just write dreams.

You write poems with your fingertipsAnd I keep listening to the songs written on my skinBy some distant dream, similar wordsBut the verses never meet...

Who am I? I'm just a writer. I write things down. I walk through your dreams and invent the future. Sure, I sink the boat of love, but that comes later. And yes, I swallow glass, but that comes later.

Every sword that was dripping the blood became a pen. Every word that was written in it became a poetry.

Novelists and the literary world play an important part in shaping languages. The Swahili they write influence the readers and their languages. The literary obstacle in Tanzania is not that people do not read, but that they don’t read because there are no interesting writers.

Write as much as you can. Read as much as you can. Use the library and the internet carefully for research and talk to people about things that matter. If you have an idea in your head talk it to people as a normal conversation, to get their natural opinions. And don’t forget to jot down discreetly any new ideas you get from people. God may use other people to convey messages to you, that may add more information to the ideas you already have.

I was mistaken when I said you live in my heart. How absurd I was when you live in my fingertips so that everything I touch is you. How foolish I was when you live in my toes so that everywhere I go there's you. How senseless of me to say you live in my heart when you breathe in my lungs, walk on my mind, and drink in my mouth. I came to pen another poem for you, but even every unwritten poem is you.

I write because the security of your love allows me to develop my craft without concerning myself with trivialities — as if your love could be any more complete. But I write, in the first place,because of you, my muse. I write for your green eyes to glance at my humble words and for the pleasure of hearing you utter them.

I came to pen another poem for you, but even every unwritten poem is you.

Tickle my heart with your pen. Write me for all to read. Bind our love inside a book. Make me your poetry.
