Gute Geschichte / Good Story Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Gute Geschichte / Good Story:

I'll continue doing 'Jingle Belle' as long as I've got a good story for her. Paul Dini

Every good story needs a hero. Back when I wrote 'The Search,' that hero was Google - the book wasn't about Google alone, but Google's narrative worked to drive the entire story.

John Battelle

Sometimes I can tackle an issue -homelessness, tobacco litigation, insurance fraud, the death penalty - and wrap a good story around it. These are the best books, the ones with a story and a message.

John Grisham

No, it's not a very good story - its author was too busy listening to other voices to listen as closely as he should have to the one coming from inside.

Stephen King

I'm just trying to write a good story, strictly from imagination. People just think it's random, they don't see the rewriting, phrasing of characters, choosing the words, bringing the world to light in which the characters live in. That creates an illusion that this is real.

Eric Jerome Dickey

A good story cannot be devised; it has to be distilled.

Raymond Chandler

I always try to tell a good story, one with a compelling plot that will keep the pages turning. That is my first and primary goal. Sometimes I can tackle an issue-homelessness, tobacco litigation, insurance fraud, the death penalty-and wrap a good story around it.

John Grisham

People love a good story, even if it's a story that has very little truth to it.

Katee Sackhoff

People still love a good story, and I don't think that will change.

Bob Iger

I love people who have a good sense of humor, tell a good story, tell a good joke.

Jason Statham

I think that whenever there's a good script we try to make that happen, but it's all based off of a good story, a good script, but I don't believe you should do it just because it's African-American.

Babyface

Mellow doesn't always make for a good story, but it makes for a good life.

Anne Hathaway

With any good story, you need the adversary, the heroes and villains. You need a good mixture to make it work.

Phil Keoghan

I think that's a hallmark of a really good story that it has readers that it speaks to more than others.

Erin Morgenstern

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

Our children's children will hear a good story.

Richard Adams

That's probably when I get the most angry at American movies, when they just so cynically manipulate the audience without even trying to give a good story.

Gene Siskel

If it's a good story, then everybody is trying to tell it, everybody is better for it, and it's just more fun.

Garret Dillahunt

I'm a storyteller, not a prophet. I'm just interested in a good story.

David Eddings

For the last 20 years of my life, I've had the mantra to do amazing parts with amazing people in amazing projects, so I'm attracted to good story, writing and character and good people. That's what I'm always searching for and I don't think that's ever going to change.

John Hawkes

I sketched out a rough story for them and the director said, well it's a good story but we have the go-ahead from Universal to make this script and did I want to do it. I said no, and they left.

Ellen Burstyn

Life on earth is such a good story you cannot afford to miss the beginning... Beneath our superficial differences we are all of us walking communities of bacteria. The world shimmers, a pointillist landscape made of tiny living beings.

Lynn Margulis

We don't feel pressure of, 'Let's make this really raunchy.' It's more about making a good story, which is 10 times harder. The raunchy stuff's really easy for us.

Matt Stone

The technology is really where all of the changes have taken place, but the fundamentals of a good story being the basis of every good picture, and really the only basis still remains the rule, more so today, I think, because we've unfortunately weaned an audience from birth to kind of mindless movies.

Richard D. Zanuck

Whether it's theatre or TV or film, you're hoping you're going to bump into a writer that's got a bit of honour in him, that wants to tell a good story and is able to tell it well.

Liam Cunningham

I think good art should always be entertaining, or at least give pleasure of some sort. And my chief goal as a writer has always been to tell a good story and give my readers a good time.

Kenneth Oppel

I'm drawn to a good story, really, as I hope most people are. For me, it's the story that's going to stay with you eventually, not necessarily the genre. I go to watch a film because of the story, not because it was a Western or a comedy.

Ryan Kwanten

You don't have to know anything about baseball to respond to Babe Ruth because he's just this magnificent human being. And a really good story because he was this kid who grew up essentially as an orphan, you know, had a tough life, and then he became the most successful baseball player ever. But he was also a really good guy.

Bill Bryson

My favorite roles usually have to do with the story, if it's a good story I usually enjoy doing the character.

Beau Bridges

A good story often increases the salability of an item without increasing its actual value.

Roy H. Williams

It is my writing dilemma. The world of spying is my genre. My struggle is to demystify, to de-romanticise the spook world, but at the same time harness it as a good story.

John le Carre

With movies, you are always in search is a good story, one that everyone will relate to and love. I love finding those stories and creating a visual world to tell the story.

Don Bluth

A good story never dies.

Roberta Williams

My sister is a good story of resiliency. She had a full ride at UC Davis, but she left school to go to the Philippines - and then she decided to go back to school in her 40s, which surprised me. She went to UC Berkeley, and I think she was one of two African Americans in her class at Haas. She's really impressive.

Chili Davis

I believe in plot, in development of character, in the effect of the passage of time, in a good story - better than something you might find in the newspaper. And I believe a novel should be as complicated and involved as you're capable of making it.

John Irving

The trouble with telling a good story is that it invariably reminds the other fellow of a dull one.

Sid Caesar

As a rule, anyone who can tell a good story can write one, so there really need be no mistake about his qualification; such a man will be careful not to be wearisome, and to keep his point, or his catastrophe, well in hand.

James Payn
