There's some things that you learn as you're shooting, and as you're editing that are key, because when you start you don't have the brain that can finish it.

The story of who you are, were, will be: you don't have to accept any of this. If you want, bypass selective editing and let the whole thing go. All of it.

Just remember that you'll have to write in roles for other people that they like if you want others to play along. ~ Jason Louv

That was when I was doing dailies four days a week. ~ Paul Madonna

My hobbies include editing my life story, hiding behind metaphors
And trying to convince my shadow that I'm someone worth following ~ Rudy Francisco

Back at my teaching and editing jobs I imagined the new world we were trying to create would be enduring and absolutely better than any world we had inherited. For me, if an idea was purported to be new, it looked a lot better than any idea that seemed to be old. Most theologians I knew were trying to discover some new way of looking at the old ideas of God, humanity, sin and salvation. I was there to teach theology, but theology itself was in search of legitimation. What I was really doing might more accurately be described as promoting Rogerian psychology, wealth-distribution, demytholgy and existentialist ethics than studying God. Theology was desperately in search of a method, whether it was borrowed form cutting-edge philosophy, social theory or political life, as long as it didn't begin with revelation. ~ Thomas C. Oden

I'm in awe of directors like the Coen brothers who can shoot their script and edit it, and that's the movie. They're not discovering the movie in postproduction. They're editing the script they shot. ~ Spike Jonze

Well, the 'Giuliana & Bill' show is a little bit different because Giuliana and I are the executive producers of the show, so certainly we have a lot of control and we have total, I guess if we wanted to, editing power, but I will say, in the seven seasons we've done the show, we've never used our executive producer powers to cut something out. ~ Bill Rancic

I stayed at 'Cosmo' well beyond my internship, moving up the ranks over some 15 years to become books editor, then brand director, then editor-at-large - editing everything from an excerpt of Gore Vidal's memoir to writing some of those juicy cover lines myself. ~ John Searles

Professional humorists and cartoonists have to go through a stage in which they have to kill their own internal editor just so they can get stuff out. So whether they believe it or not, they need me on the other end to do that editing for them. ~ Robert Mankoff

There's no point in writing my kind of stuff, when they're printing that kind of stuff. So I gave up and started drinking. ~ Charles Bukowski

What we don't like about writing
is being judged. We don't like the format, the rules, the editing, the need to
make everything perfect. But writing can be a way to formulate your thoughts
when you can't say what you need to say or you don't know how to say what
you need to say on the spot. Writing lets you take time. Find the words. And
express yourself exactly how you wish. And when we're young, it's a way to
lose yourself as well as find yourself. ~ Penelope Douglas

When I do a still picture, I'm doing it all by myself with no help. I'm designing everything. I am my own art director. I'm doing everything. I'm directing, editing, whatever. ~ Vilmos Zsigmond

I'm a writer, not an editor, and though the editing rarely cut into my writing time, it did take away from that walking-around-thinking-about-it-when-you're-not-thinking-about-it time that I think is important for writers. When you're half-thinking about what you're working on while driving, cooking ... just letting things sift and settle, come to you. ~ Ben Fountain
