Performance Quotes (page 7)

I offer my performance as prayer for someone I've worked with as an actor or someone who has died. The image that comes into my head as I walk to the stage, I offer that performance up for that person. Liam Neeson
Graham Nash quote: "After six or seven performances of any song, you begin to..."
After six or seven performances of any song, you begin to perform it rather than feel it. Graham Nash
It's always performing for me. I write and I record so I can perform. It all ties to that. I've done it since I was a little kid. That's my absolute rush, is playing for different people every night, bringing something else to the table they've never seen. Gary Allan
The negative is comparable to the composer's score and the print to its performance. Each performance differs in subtle ways. Ansel Adams
There's got to be a backbone, there's got to be a skeleton to the whole way I perform, but you never want to hit the same note twice during a performance, I think. I think it's always got to be fresh so it doesn't bore me, and I always want to go out on edge. Casey Abrams
Brian Tracy quote: "Develop the winning edge; small differences in your..."
Develop the winning edge; small differences in your performance can lead to large differences in your results. Brian Tracy
Samuel Taylor Coleridge quote: "The frost performs its secret ministry, Unhelped by any wind."
The frost performs its secret ministry, Unhelped by any wind. Samuel Taylor Coleridge
shade of the house, in the sunshine of the riverbank near the boats, in the shade of the Sal-wood forest, in the shade of the fig tree is where Siddhartha grew up, the handsome son of the Brahman, the young falcon, together with his friend Govinda, son of a Brahman. The sun tanned his light shoulders by the banks of the river when bathing, performing the sacred ablutions, the sacred offerings. In the mango grove, shade poured into Herman Hesse
They both loved piano music and were convinced that Beethoven’s Sonata No. 32 was the absolute pinnacle in the history of music. And that Wilhelm Backhaus’s unparalleled performance of the sonata for Decca set the interpretive standard. Haruki Murakami
Neal Stephenson quote: "in the background she can hear the shopping carts performing..."
...in the background she can hear the shopping carts performing their clashy, anal copulations. Neal Stephenson
I believe the most important benefit that I can confer on the country by my presidency is to insist upon the entire independence of the executive and legislative branches of the government, and compel the members of the legislative branch to see that they have responsibilities of their own, grave and well-defined, which their official oaths bind them sacredly to perform. Grover Cleveland
The admirers and followers of the Al Koran insist on the excellent moral precepts interspersed throughout that wild and absurd performance...Would we know, whether the pretended prophet had really attained a just sentiment of morality, let us attend to his narration, and we shall soon find, that he bestows praise upon such instances of treachery, inhumanity, cruelty, revenge, bigotry, as are utterly incompatible with civilised society. No steady rule of right conduct seems there to be... David Hume
Elizabeth Gaskell quote: "She had a fierce pleasure in the idea of telling Margaret..."
She had a fierce pleasure in the idea of telling Margaret unwelcome truths, in the shape of performance of duty. Elizabeth Gaskell
Every true faith is infallible. It performs what the believing person hopes to find in it. But it does not offer the least support for the establishing of an objective truth. Here the ways of men divide. If you want to achieve peace of mind and happiness, have faith. If you want to be a disciple of truth, then search. Friedrich Nietzsche
At Columbus Circle, a juggler wearing a trench cloak and top hat, who is usually at this location afternoons and who calls himself Stretch Man, performs in front of a small, uninterested crowd; though I smell prey, and he seems worthy of my wrath, I move on in search of a less dorky target. Though if he’d been a mime, odds are he’d already be dead. Bret Easton Ellis
