Tell Quotes (page 159)

Grace Paley quote: "There is a long time in me between knowing and telling."
There is a long time in me between knowing and telling. Grace Paley
Fare well we call to hearth and hall. Though wind may blow and rain may fall. We must away ere break of day. Over the wood and mountain tall. To Rivendell where Elves yet dwell. In glades beneath the misty fell. Through moor and waste we ride in haste. And wither then we cannot tell. With foes ahead behind us dread. Beneath the sky shall be our bed. Until at last our toil be sped. Our journey done, our errand sped. We must away! We must away! We ride before the break of day! J. R. R. Tolkien
I noticed that all the prayers I used to offer to God, and all the prayers I now offer to Joe Pesci, are being answered at about the same fifty percent rate. Half the time I get what I want, half the time I don't...Same as the four-leaf clover and the horseshoe...same as the voodoo lady who tells you your fortune by squeezing the goat's testicles. It's all the same...so just pick your superstition, sit back, make a wish, and enjoy yourself... George Carlin
A lie was something you told because you were mean or a coward. A story was something you made up out of something that might have happened. Only you didn't tell it like it was, you told it like you thought it should have been. Betty Smith
Fyodor Dostoevsky quote: "But how could you live and have no story to tell?"
But how could you live and have no story to tell? Fyodor Dostoevsky
I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole. Malcolm X
Dorothy Allison quote: "Fiction is the great liar that tells the truth about how the..."
Fiction is the great liar that tells the truth about how the world really lives. Dorothy Allison
Divert yourself, and ask each passenger to tell his story, and if there is one of them all who has not cursed his existence many times, and said to himself over and over again that he was the most miserable of men, I give you permission to throw me head-first into the sea. Voltaire
I would like to tell about war and friendship among the various parts of the body, the arms that do battle with the feet, and the veins that make love with the arteries, or the bones with the marrow. All the stories I would like to write persecute me. When I am in my chamber, it seems as if they are all around me, like little devils, and while one tugs at my ear, another tweaks my nose, and each says to me, 'Sir, write me, I am beautiful.' Then I realize that an equally beautiful story can be... Umberto Eco
I'd see him do things that didn't fit with his face or hands, things like painting a picture at OT with real paints on a blank paper with no lines or numbers anywhere on it to tell him where to paint, or like writing letters to somebody in a beautiful flowing hand. How could a man who looked like him paint pictures or write letters to people, or be upset and worried like I saw him once when he got a letter back? Ken Kesey
I suppose that Willie had his natural quota of ordinary suspicion and caginess, but those things tend to evaporate when what people tell you is what you want to hear. Robert Penn Warren
Marketing is the name we use to describe the promise a company makes, the story it tells, the authentic way it delivers on that promise. Seth Godin
Lady Gaga quote: "I'm telling you a lie in a vicious effort that you will repeat..."
I'm telling you a lie in a vicious effort that you will repeat my lie over and over until it becomes true Lady Gaga
You know the story in the bible? The one with the king and the two women fighting over the baby? Sure King Solomon. That's right, king solomon he said, cut the kid in half... but it was only a test. Just to see who would give up their share to protect it... Well, I'm not going to cut you in half anymore. He was telling me that he loved me the most, that his surrender proved it. Stephenie Meyer
Albert Einstein quote: "There are two important things for full success in life:1...."
There are two important things for full success in life:1. Dont tell everything you know. Albert Einstein
