Screen Quotes
None of us like violence in the real world, but we're fascinated with it on screen.
Jonathan Nolan
Getting tired of sitting, staring at my computer screen, day after day, where everyone is two-dimensional, reduced to an avatar photo, status updates, or maybe some carefully curated vacation photos. There's something exhausting about that after a while. I found myself wanting to hear voices.
Brad Listi
Nobody has a perfect life. What you see on the screen is the best of the artist.
Rene Angelil
Just write it down. Its much easier to go back and change it once its already on the screen.
Andy McNab
We view films in the context of darkness. We sit in darkness and watch an illuminated world, the world of the screen. This situation is a metaphor for the nature of our own vision. In the very process of seeing, our own skull is like a dark theatre, and the world we see in front of us is in a sense a screen. We watch the world from the dark theatre of our skull. The darker the room, the more luminous the screen.
Nathaniel Dorsky
I've learned to keep my work on the stage or on the screen.
John Lloyd Young
The world of the cinema and of painting are very different; precisely, the possibilities of photography and the cinema reside in that unlimited fantasy which is born of things themselves... a piece of sugar can become on the screen larger than an infinite perspective of gigantic buildings.
Salvador Dali
An air of anticipation hung over the lab. The pied crow—whose name, according to Tasha, was Pitch, and who had been raised in captivity, bouncing from wildlife center to wildlife center before winding up living in my sister’s private aviary—gripped her perch stubbornly with her talons and averted her eyes from the screen, refusing to react to the avatar that was trying to catch her attention. She’d been ignoring the screen for over an hour, shutting out four researchers and a bored linguist who was convinced that I was in the middle of some sort of creative breakdown.
Elizabeth Bear
There was more good acting at Hollywood parties than ever appeared on the screen.
Bette Davis
I mean, the paradox is that whereas the screen, it seems to me - the cinema can absorb endless amounts of music, it cannot really with comfort absorb large amounts of words. Not nearly as many words, that is to say, as a stage can.
Bob Mondello
I'm very shy about seeing my own face on the screen.
Ryuichi Sakamoto
I dont like to watch myself on screen because in my mind there is a touch of George Clooney about me, but when I see it, there is more than a little Donkey from Shrek about me.
Stephen Mangan
Between me and A.J. , we felt that our fans deserved something better than some half-assed VHS-video someone shot years ago with a lame angle or focus, and has nothing but a snow-covered screen. I see shit like that on eBay all the time, and fans deserve something better.
Eddie Sutton
The great difference between screen acting and theatre acting is that screen acting is about reacting - 75% of the time, great screen actors are great reactors.
Nicolas Roeg
I'm one of those people that think that what you put up on screen, no matter how you're stating it, is usually an advertisement for it. Even if I'm saying "it's really bad to do this, or it's really good to do this" - regardless, the fact that it's on film, presented in this huge way, is appealing.
Azazel Jacobs
During the screen test for 'Red Widow' was the first time anyone ever told me that I was good at auditioning.
Sterling Beaumon
