MY ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS BECAUSE WHILE I STAND STILL MY VIBRATIONS STILL MOVE YOU ~ Qwana Reynolds-Frasier
Books Music quotes by Qwana Reynolds-Frasier
She took out an Ian McEwan book, flicked through it and said, 'I love this. I can't bear people who don't read. I think they must have something wrong with them, don't you?' 'I guess so.' 'Books, music, art, films.' She held up her glass. 'Good wine. It's what life's all about.' I held up my own glass. 'To books, music, art, films and wine. ~ Mark Edwards
Books Music quotes by Mark Edwards
If getting addicted to something is just wrong, then I don't want to be right when it comes to books and music !! Those are the two things that can set anything in the world right... ~ Priyanka R
Books Music quotes by Priyanka R
Rest, nature, books, music ... such is my idea of happiness. ~ Leo Tolstoy
Books Music quotes by Leo Tolstoy
A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbor - such is my idea of happiness. ~ Leo Tolstoy
Books Music quotes by Leo Tolstoy
Thank God for books and music and things I can think about. ~ Daniel Keyes
Books Music quotes by Daniel Keyes
Whether we're talking about books, music or film, it's all about storytelling. You get a powerful new way of connecting with people once you hear their stories. ~ Craig Hatkoff
Books Music quotes by Craig Hatkoff
We were raised to believe in books, music, and nature. ~ Anne Lamott
Books Music quotes by Anne Lamott
Supporting a creative artist can mean buying their books, music, art, movie, and photographs or just shouting out their name. ~ Chris Mentillo
Books Music quotes by Chris Mentillo
Hell on earth: A crowded room with no books, no music and not a soul around that understands you. ~ Brooke Hampton
Books Music quotes by Brooke Hampton
That was the price of human civilization - to create it, they had to close down the door to their true selves. And so they are lost, that is how I understand it. And that is why they invented art: books, music, films, plays, painting, sculpture. They invented them as bridges back to themselves, back to who they are. But however close they get, they are forever removed ~ Matt Haig
Books Music quotes by Matt Haig
It's art. And it makes people happy. And that's a very good thing. We have this problem in our culture. We take art that appeals to women - film, books, music - and we undervalue it. We assume it can't be high art. Especially if it's not dark and tortured and wailing. And it follows that much of that art is created by other women, and so we undervalue them as well. We wrap it up in a pretty pink package and resist calling it art. ~ Robinne Lee
Books Music quotes by Robinne Lee
I was no longer able to hear the music that issues from a decent piece of prose. ~ Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Books Music quotes by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Because it's so easy to medicate our need for self-worth by pandering to win followers, 'likes' and view counts, social media have become the metier of choice for many people who might otherwise channel that energy into books, music or art - or even into their own Web ventures. ~ Neil Strauss
Books Music quotes by Neil Strauss
The best way to avoid being confused about Bruce Jenner is get your head out of his bedroom and closet, and then think about all of the things you've been hiding and been miserable about. So what he made his announcement via media. Books, music, movies, business launches are announced in the same manner. Just focus on the feeling of finally disclosing something that enables you to be free and to live as authentically as possible. And then imagine what it's like to own your truth, tell it your way, thus taking away anyone else's ability to spin it their way or use it against you. If you can do any of the above, you will no longer be confused. ~ Robin Caldwell
Books Music quotes by Robin Caldwell
I have lots of passions - gardens, art, music and reading. I have eclectic taste and read a huge variety of books. ~ Zoe Wanamaker
Books Music quotes by Zoe Wanamaker
There are worse things than finding your wife and child dead.
You can watch the world do it. You can watch your wife get old and bored. You can watch your kids discover everything in the world you've tried to save them from. Drugs, divorce, conformity, disease. All the nice clean books, music, television. Distraction. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Books Music quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
On July 2, McCandless finished reading Tolstoy's "Family Happiness", having marked several passages that moved him:
"He was right in saying that the only certain happiness in life is to live for others ...
I have lived through much, and now I think I have found what is needed for happiness. A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books , music, love for one's neighbor - such is my idea of happiness. And then, on top of all that, you for a mate, and children, perhaps - what more can the heart of a man desire?" ... ~ Jon Krakauer
Books Music quotes by Jon Krakauer
Most of the books, music and movies ever released are not available for sale, anywhere in the world. In the brief time that P2P nets have flourished, the ad-hoc masses of the Internet have managed to put just about everything online. What's more, they've done it far cheaper than any other archiving/revival effort ever. ~ Cory Doctorow
Books Music quotes by Cory Doctorow
We're often wrong at predicting who or what will transform us. Encountering certain people, books, music, places, or ideas ... at just the right time can immediately make our lives happier, richer, more beautiful, resonant, or meaningful. When it happens, we feel a kind of instant love for them, both deep and abiding. Now and then it can be something as trifling as a children's book, a returned telephone call, or a night at a seaside bar in Mykonos. ~ Jonathan Carroll
Books Music quotes by Jonathan Carroll
I have been as influenced by music and films as by books. ~ Kevin Barry
Books Music quotes by Kevin Barry
Books is our main type of content, but we include user-generated content and will include other verticals such as scientific papers, sheet music, and comic books. ~ Trip Adler
Books Music quotes by Trip Adler
There are certain pieces of music that are always attached to certain books. ~ Maurice Sendak
Books Music quotes by Maurice Sendak
Feed your creative mind.
Feed your joyful, selfless heart.
Feed your soul to grow.
Feed with books, music, painting or arts,
Feed with your special favorite passion
you joyfully share near or far apart. ~ Angelica Hopes
Books Music quotes by Angelica Hopes
He said that the principal function of music was to organize the details into harmonies that were intended to make us forget that there was randomness all around us. The same, he said, could be said for great books. ~ Selden Edwards
Books Music quotes by Selden Edwards
They say all art - whether books, music, or visual - is a reaction to other art, ~ Blake Crouch
Books Music quotes by Blake Crouch
My favorite, how did you put it now? Landscapes, animals, plants? Favorite what? Books, music, architecture, painting? I don't have any favorite animals, no favorite mosquitoes, favorite beetles, favorite worms, even with the best will in the world I cannot tell you which birds or fish or predators I prefer, it would also be difficult for me to have to choose much more generally. ~ Ingeborg Bachmann
Books Music quotes by Ingeborg Bachmann
The blues was bleeding the same blood as me. ~ B.B. King
Books Music quotes by B.B. King
While there are certainly informational spillovers as ideas move from person to person, it is hard to see why in most instances they are not priced. Although it is possible to imagine examples such as the wheelbarrow where an idea cannot be used without revealing the secret, relatively few ideas are of this type. For copyrightable creations such as books, music, plays, movies and art, unpriced spillovers obviously play little role. A book, a CD or a work of art must be purchased before it can be used, and the creator is free to make use of his creation in the privacy of his home without revealing the secret to the public at large. Similarly with movies or plays. In all cases, the creation must effectively be purchased before the "secret" is revealed. ~ Michele Boldrin
Books Music quotes by Michele Boldrin
I still occasionally need to struggle but I now fear it less. The weapons I fight it with are also my consolations: books, music, food, wine, nature. ~ P.D. James
Books Music quotes by P.D. James
The stuff that I write doesn't work very well as background music. You have to watch it from beginning to end and pay attention as if you were watching a play. ~ Aaron Sorkin
Books Music quotes by Aaron Sorkin
The weekly cartoons, as were my plays, came from a sense of criticism, criticism of the times, critical of the culture, of our manners and attitudes towards each other. The children's books come from the reverse. They're more supportive, since we're living in a time where we talk more about kids and do less, we talk about balancing the budget and we do it by cutting education. ~ Jules Feiffer
Books Music quotes by Jules Feiffer
Part of me feels that I'm letting people down by not being as interesting as my books. ~ Jim Crace
Books Music quotes by Jim Crace
I am not really certain how original my contribution to music is as I am obviously an amateur. ~ Patti Smith
Books Music quotes by Patti Smith
I think the photographer is in love with the deaf woman, Genevieve says finally. Mercedes fingers the lip of her mug. How can you tell? He touches her the way we touch the books. ~ Lindsey Drager
Books Music quotes by Lindsey Drager
Music is the soundtrack to my life. ~ James Hetfield
Books Music quotes by James Hetfield
I'm a big fan of comedy music. ~ Ray Stevens
Books Music quotes by Ray Stevens
When you read a great book, you don't escape from life, you plunge deeper into it. There may be a superficial escape – into different countries, mores, speech patterns – but what you are essentially doing is furthering your understanding of life's subtleties, paradoxes, joys, pains and truths. Reading and life are not separate but symbiotic. ~ Julian Barnes
Books Music quotes by Julian Barnes
The Beats were tremendously significant, but chiefly in the way that they provided a preview in the 1950s of the cultural, intellectual, and moral disasters that would fully flower in the late 1960s. The ideas of the Beats, their sensibility, contained in ovo all the characteristics we think of as defining the cultural revolution of the Sixties and Seventies. The adolescent longing for liberation from conventional manners and intellectual standards; the polymorphous sexuality; the narcissism; the destructive absorption in drugs; the undercurrent of criminality; the irrationalism; the naive political radicalism and reflexive anti-Americanism; the adulation of pop music as a kind of spiritual weapon; the Romantic elevation of art as an alternative to rather than as an illumination of normal reality; the pseudo-spirituality, especially the spurious infatuation with Eastern religions: in all this and more the Beats provided a vivid glimpse of what was to come. ~ Roger Kimball
Books Music quotes by Roger Kimball
The nature of music is mysterious and so much so that it generates strong emotions within us. It moves along passages that reach the most intimate areas of our psyche without being tried by prejudices or influences of any kind. ~ Andrea Bocelli
Books Music quotes by Andrea Bocelli
This was a land of lost souls. Human beings who had weathered great storms in life, had suffered unspeakable loss, had been put to painful tests of existence, and still remained standing - but just barely. ~ Clare Vanderpool
Books Music quotes by Clare Vanderpool
Here is my music. It is all I have to tell you how I feel. Know that your love keeps my love strong. ~ Stevie Wonder
Books Music quotes by Stevie Wonder
Many, perhaps most, very learned people prefer the company of their books to sitting in a crowd listening to history and art being mangled; furthermore, it is unlikely that the venerable scholars will stand up afterward to declare, "This lecture was a load of crap." The more profound a professor's distaste with the proceedings, the more likely he is to melt away at the end of the talk. ~ Camille Paglia
Books Music quotes by Camille Paglia
For me, music begins where words end. ~ Jean Sibelius
Books Music quotes by Jean Sibelius
Speaking of libraries: A big open-stack academic or public library is no small pleasure to work in. You're, say, trying to do a piece on something in Nevada, and you go down to C Floor, deep in the earth, and out to what a miner would call a remote working face. You find 10995.497S just where the card catalog and the online computer thought it would be, but that is only the initial nick. The book you knew about has led you to others you did not know about. To the ceiling the shelves are loaded with books about Nevada. You pull them down, one at a time, and sit on the floor and look them over until you are sitting on a pile five feet high, at which point you are late home for dinner and you get up and walk away. It's an incomparable boon to research, all that; but it is also a reason why there are almost no large open-stack libraries left in the world. ~ John McPhee
Books Music quotes by John McPhee
A man is happiest with a girl who reads books." - ~ Zan Perrion
Books Music quotes by Zan Perrion
There is no happiness in love, except at the end of an English novel. ~ Anthony Trollope
Books Music quotes by Anthony Trollope
The universal odour of bookshop, closed all night on the mildews of its ranked treasures, brought a past life before him - as is said to happen in drowning. But how, he wondered, entering and taking up a book, and even breathing it in to sustain remembrance, could one ever verify or explode the myth, except by drowning. ~ Shirley Hazzard
Books Music quotes by Shirley Hazzard
Doctor Who: You want weapons? We're in a library. Books are the best weapon in the world. This room's the greatest arsenal we could have. Arm yourself!
(from Tooth and Claw in Season 2) ~ Russell T. Davies
Books Music quotes by Russell T. Davies
Nice things don't happen in storybooks," Taryn says. "Or when they do happen, something bad happens next. Because otherwise the story would be boring, and no one would read it. ~ Holly Black
Books Music quotes by Holly Black
The music game is more than just my love for singing, its a sport for me. ~ Keshia Chante
Books Music quotes by Keshia Chante
I prefer the skyline
of a shelf of books. ~ Jim Harrison
Books Music quotes by Jim Harrison
The wind plays its own music. ~ Bert McCoy
Books Music quotes by Bert McCoy
The door could not be heard slamming; they had probably left it open, as is the custom in homes where a great misfortune has occurred. ~ Franz Kafka
Books Music quotes by Franz Kafka
Women have always been healers. They were the unlicensed doctors and anatomists. They were abortionists, nurses and counselors. They were the pharmacists, cultivating healing herbs, and exchanging the secrets of their uses. They were midwives, traveling from home to home and village to village. For centuries women were doctors without degrees, barred from books and lectures, learning from each other, and passing on experience from neighbor to neighbor and mother to daughter. They were called "wise women" by the people, witches or charlatans by the authorities. Medicine is part of our heritage as women, our history, our birthright. ~ Barbara Ehrenreich
Books Music quotes by Barbara Ehrenreich
Christine Bass was my high school music teacher. She took a program on its last legs and within a few years turned into one of the best programs in the country. Our high school dominated national choir competitions all through her 20-plus year tenure. ~ Aaron Lazar
Books Music quotes by Aaron Lazar
Rape victims were the people who evoked the most sadness in Bosch. He knew he wouldn't be able to last a month on a rape squad. Every victim he had ever seen had that stare. It was a sign that all things in their lives were different now and forever. They would never get back to what they had had before.

Connelly, Michael. Trunk Music ~ Connelly, Michael
Books Music quotes by Connelly, Michael
Mockingbirds don't do one thing except make music for us to enjoy. ~ Harper Lee
Books Music quotes by Harper Lee
My music is just as much me as it is everybody else. ~ Torae
Books Music quotes by Torae
My love of books and ability to get buried in them while real life piles up outside the door always keeps me passive and deluded. ~ Kay Dew Shostak
Books Music quotes by Kay Dew Shostak
I do... to this day, think that success is being able to look in the mirror and know that I'm alright on that day. I don't believe I've made it–I believe that I'm making it. I believe that I've found my past so that I can live in the present, it's the most important thing to me. The books and the plays and the touring and the gigs and the speeches and the cash...it all pales into insignificance when compared with knowing that I didn't do anything wrong, and I'm going to be okay now. ~ Lemn Sissay
Books Music quotes by Lemn Sissay
I knew books to be objects that loved to cluster and form disordered piles, but here books seemed robbed of their zany capacity to fall about, to conspire. In the library, books behaved themselves. ~ Sheridan Hay
Books Music quotes by Sheridan Hay
Books are best preserved in the minds of readers. ~ Kat Lowe
Books Music quotes by Kat Lowe
I think you gotta always do things that keep you excited in an [rap music] industry that's so bullshit. When you know that you have so much energy and so much to give, it would be a shame if the facilitators of that aren't enthusiastic about you doing it, because you've been doing it for so long. So you just gotta figure out ways in this insane business to keep it fresh. ~ Nas
Books Music quotes by Nas
Books have always a secret influence on the understanding. ~ Samuel Johnson
Books Music quotes by Samuel Johnson
I've always wanted to be taller. I feel like a shrimp, but that's the way it goes. I'm five-foot four-and-a-half-inches - that's actually average. Everything about me is average. Everything's normal, in the books. It's the things inside me that make me not average. ~ Madonna Ciccone
Books Music quotes by Madonna Ciccone
Time is like most things, 'Risha, it's more a matter of perception than anything else. It exists 'cause we needed it to exist, a way to measure when."
-Aaron-Michael Hall, Kurintor Nyusi ~ Aaron-Michael Hall
Books Music quotes by Aaron-Michael Hall
In that long sequence, when Lawrence enters in the desert to rescue a lost man, Lean listened the music I wrote and wanted to extend the scene to let my work stay completely. ~ Maurice Jarre
Books Music quotes by Maurice Jarre
Initially [my favorite books] seem to immerse me in another life, but ultimately they immerse me in me; I am looking through the window into another person's home, but it is my face that I see in the reflection. ~ Derek Thompson
Books Music quotes by Derek Thompson
You haven't prepared yourself for worship if you just practice musical art ~ LaMar Boschman
Books Music quotes by LaMar Boschman
The best user experiences are enchanting. They help the user enter an alternate reality, whether it's the world of making music, writing, sharing photos, coding, or managing a project. ~ Kathy Sierra
Books Music quotes by Kathy Sierra
Reading books makes us more attentive to our personage and the aesthetic world that we live in. Writers that we idolize use language, logic, and nuance to paint physical and emotional scenes with refined precision. A writer's use of vivid language creates lingering aftereffects that work their wonder on the reader's malleable mind. A stirred mind resurrects our semiconscious memories; it causes us to summon up enduring images of our family, friends, and acquaintances. Just as importantly, inspirational writing makes us recognize our own telling character traits and identify our formerly unexpressed thoughts and feelings. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Books Music quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
Tell me about your children," he said.
"What would you like to know?"
"Anything. How did you decide on their names?"
"Justin was named after my husband's favorite uncle- a dear old bachelor who always brought him books when he was ill. My younger son, Stephen, was named after a character in an adventure novel Lord Clare and I read when we were children."
"What was the title?"
"I can't tell you; you'll think it's silly. It is silly. But we both loved it. We read it dozens of times. I had to send Henry my copy, after-"
After you stole his.
In Henry's view, the worst of West Ravenel's offenses had been stealing his copy of Stephen Armstrong: Treasure Hunter from a box of possessions beneath his bed at school. Although there had never been proof of the thief's identity, Henry had remembered that Ravenel had previously mocked him when he'd seen him reading it. "I know he's the one," Henry had written. "He's probably done something awful with it. Dropped it down the privy. I'd be surprised if the nincompoop can even read."
"Someday when we're big," Phoebe had written in response, full of righteous vengeance, "we'll go thrash him together and take it back from him."
But now she was sitting next to him at dinner.
"-after he lost his copy," she finished awkwardly. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Books Music quotes by Lisa Kleypas
The greatest thing about music is everyone has their own style, and I respect all styles of music. ~ Adam Hicks
Books Music quotes by Adam Hicks
My dad was in the Swedish armed forces, he was always reading up on different weapons from the Americans and Soviets. When I was a kid, I was in bed looking at his books, reading about the Red Army. So I was very aware of it. I had an interest in military matters ever since. ~ Dolph Lundgren
