Interesting Times Quotes

It's an interesting time that way. It's hard to meet good girls down here. It seems like they're all after something and interested in their own lives. Scott Speedman
It was a really interesting time in New York in the late 70s and early 80s, and the music scene was really, really interesting because you didn't have to be a virtuoso to make music, it was more about your desire to express things. Jim Jarmusch
Sting quote: "My friends are Peter Gabriel, Bruce Springsteen, and we're..."
My friends are Peter Gabriel, Bruce Springsteen, and we're singing about mortality, getting older. It's an interesting time. Sting
Steve Martin quote: "I just believe that the interesting time in a career is..."
I just believe that the interesting time in a career is pre-success, what shaped things, how did you get to this point. Steve Martin
Charles de Lint quote: "I'm not Chinese. I thrive in interesting times."
I'm not Chinese. I thrive in interesting times. Charles de Lint
Time interval is a strange and contradictory matter in the mind. It would be reasonable to suppose that a routine time or an eventless time would seem interminable. It should be so, but it is not. It is the dull eventless times that have no duration whatever. A time splashed with interest, wounded with tragedy, crevassed with joy - that's the time that seems long in the memory. And this is right when you think about it. Eventlessness has no posts to drape duration on. From nothing to nothing... John Steinbeck
Time, Eddie had decided during this period, was in large part created by external events. When a lot of interesting shit was happening, time seemed to go by fast. If you got stuck with nothing but the usual boring shit, it slowed down. And when everything stopped happening, time apparently quit altogether. Just packed up and went to Coney Island. Weird but true. Stephen King
Jane Austen quote: "Time will generally lessen the interest of every attachment..."
Time will generally lessen the interest of every attachment not within the daily circle. Jane Austen
Interesting theory. Has anyone ever tried sticking a sword in Voldemort? Maybe the Ministry should put some people onto that, instead of wasting their time stripping down Deluminators or covering up breakouts from Azkaban... J. K. Rowling
Time, in general, has always been a central obsession of mine - what it does to people, how it can constitute a plot all on its own. So naturally, I am interested in old age. Anne Tyler
Whenever I’m interested in something, I know the timing’s off, because I’m always interested in the right thing at the wrong time. I should just be getting interested after I’m not interested any more. Andy Warhol
Yes, interest! The worm of interest. Are you surprised? No? Yes? One conclusion I have reached here after a year in my cell is that the only emotion people feel nowadays is interest or the lack of it. Curiosity and interest and boredom have replaced the so-called emotions we used to read about in novels or see registered on actors' faces. Even the horrors of the age translate into interest. Did you ever watch anybody pick up a newspaper and read the headline PLANE CRASH KILLS THREE... Walker Percy
I tend to like strong female characters. It just interests me dramatically. A strong male character isn't interesting because it has been done and it's so cliched. A weak male character is interesting: somebody else hasn't done it a hundred times. A strong female character is still interesting to me because it hasn't been done all that much, finding the balance of femininity and strength.[From a 1986 Fangoria interview] James Cameron
It occurs to me, Jim, that you spend too much time trying to be interesting. Why don't you invest more time being interested?"Collin's advice from John Gardner that he took to heart. James C. Collins
...he said firmly, "God can help you. All the men I’ve seen in your position turned to Him in their time of trouble." Obviously, I replied, they were at liberty to do so, if they felt like it. I, however, didn’t want to be helped, and I hadn’t time to work up interest for something that didn’t interest me. Albert Camus
