Same Story Quotes (page 3)

We learn best to listen to our own voices if we are listening at the same time to other women - whose stories, for all our differences, turn out, if we listen well, to be our stories also. Barbara Deming
Chuck Palahniuk quote: "I try to tell a story the way someone would tell you a story..."
I try to tell a story the way someone would tell you a story in a bar, with the same kind of timing and pacing. Chuck Palahniuk
Studying psychology is fun because you're always looking for the same things I think a writer should be looking for, which is the story behind the story. Chris Cleave
I met a bunch of comic-book writers at the Metropolis convention and there was such an interesting discussion about the story of 'Supergirl' and trying to get it right. It can be a challenge, because you don't want it to be the same as the Superman story. Helen Slater
Some of you may know my story: How for nineteen years, I worked as a manager for a tire plant in Alabama. And some of you may have lived a similar story: After nearly two decades of hard, proud work, I found out that I was making significantly less money than the men who were doing the same work as me. Lilly Ledbetter
To us, basing stories on christianity is the same as basing stories on Roman mythology, Native American folklore, or unsubstantiated government conspiracies. Richard King
If you create a good story that has a lot of story value... I think audiences like that. It's why they stick with the same TV show over and over. Robert Rodriguez
Hatred seems to work on the same glands as love: it even produces the same actions. If we had not been taught how to interpret the story of the Passion, would we have been able to say from their actions alone whether it was the jealous Judas or the cowardly Peter who loved Christ? Graham Greene
As you read my stories of long ago I hope you will remember that the things that are truly worthwhile and that will give you happiness are the same now as they were then. Courage and kindness, loyalty, truth, and helpfulness are always the same and always needed. Laura Ingalls Wilder
Take one story, viewed from two different angles. It is the same day, the same moment, but one angle ends happily... and the other ends badly. Mitch Albom
Don't lies eventually lead to the truth? And don't all my stories, true or false, tend toward the same conclusion? Don't they all have the same meaning? So what does it matter whether they are true or false if, in both cases, they are significant of what I have been and what I am? Sometimes it is easier to see clearly into the liar than into the man who tells the truth. Truth, like light, blinds. Falsehood, on the contrary, is a beautiful twilight that enhances every object. Albert Camus
George Eliot quote: "No story is the same to us after a lapse of time; or rather we..."
No story is the same to us after a lapse of time; or rather we who read it are no longer the same interpreters. George Eliot
Most magazines have become wallpaper, they're all the same, all the same celebrities. It's really an abysmal time in American journalism right now. But occasionally one story or two will pop out. David Talbot
We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it's our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same hand. Paulo Coelho
I tried to build an igloo out of orange peel but it kept falling down and even when it stood up I didn't have an eskimo to put in it, so I had to invent a story about 'How Eskimo Got Eaten', which made me even more miserable. It's always the same with diversions; you get involved Jeanette Winterson
