Zitat des Tages über Themen / Subjects:

I had decent but not great grades in high school because I was highly motivated in some subjects, like the arts, drama, English, and history, but in math and science I was a screw-up. Wooster saw something in me, and I really flourished there. I got into theatre, took photography and painting classes. J. C. Chandor

War is the easiest photography in the business. Just get close, be lucky, know how your camera works. There are subjects everywhere. Everyplace you go, there is something to photograph in a war, like being in the middle of a hurricane or a train crash or an earthquake. You can't miss it.

David Douglas Duncan

I like to show subjects inside a sealed veneer. There's a sense that you can't get in.

Steven Klein

I'm curious about everything. Even subjects that don't interest me.

Horror movies can be very interesting because they can deal with intangible subjects that are full of emotion.

Carol Ann Duffy

Noah and his family were the only loyal and obedient subjects to the legal power: they alone were saved.

Orson Pratt

I love to write. I used to be a math teacher. And I like the idea that other people could write about the same subjects, but no one would write it just the way I do. It's very individual: a child could write the same story as somebody else, but it wouldn't come out the same.

David A. Adler

The life of our city is rich in poetic and marvelous subjects. We are enveloped and steeped as though in an atmosphere of the marvelous; but we do not notice it.

Charles Baudelaire

Indeed, the existence of class, of social hierarchy, is as old as man himself. It prevails in the jungle where strength determines hierarchy; among men, it has also been savagely the same, whereby rulers vested with power through personal combat, or through lineal heritage as in the case of royalty, ravage their subjects.

F. Sionil Jose

Honestly we never lied to people about who we were. Usually the wackier interviews came to pass because the interview subjects, aware that we were Comedy Central, just wanted to get their stories out.

Mo Rocca

There are half a dozen subjects that I return to time and time again, and that doesn't bother me. Because most of my favorite writers do that, to hunt down the same topic or theme from different directions each time.

David Bowie

I approach serious subjects, and I like to have the good guys win and have the parents among the good guys.

Caroline B. Cooney

The first duty of a government is to maintain law and order so that the life, property, and religious beliefs of its subjects are fully protected by the State.

Muhammad Ali Jinnah

I only know about a few things, but I am quite good at bluffing. There are a whole range of subjects, including the Renaissance, which I am prepared to sound expert on.

Jools Holland

That's my ambition: that you look at the pictures and realize what complex, fascinating, interesting people every single one of my subjects is.

Jock Sturges

Since my subjects have always been my sensations, my states of mind and the profound reactions that life has been producing in me, I have frequently objectified all this in figures of myself, which were the most sincere and real thing that I could do in order to express what I felt inside and outside of myself.

Frida Kahlo

My early education was in the public school system of Omaha, where, retrospectively, I realize that my high school training served me in good stead for the basic subjects of mathematics, English, foreign languages and history.

Lawrence R. Klein

It is not the task of a reader to please her subjects.

Joyce Maynard

Vegetables, which are the lowest in the scale of living things, are fed by roots, which, implanted in the native soil, select by the action of a peculiar mechanism, different subjects, which serve to increase and to nourish them.

Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

People love pretty much the same things best. A writer looking for subjects inquires not after what he loves best, but after what he alone loves at all.

Annie Dillard

Leftists always want to... circle around subjects... rather than addressing any subject directly.

Dave Sim

I'm attracted to subjects who overcome tremendous suffering and learn to cope emotionally with it.

Laura Hillenbrand

I was good at most subjects at school. Looking back, I was a proper boffin! Now, the thing I'm really good at is poker.

Stormzy

I realised that today we are very much interested in reading about subjects that would have also interested people in the 1500s: ghosts, demons and things that go bump in the night.

Deborah Harkness

With both Caddyshack and Vacation, it's not like the subjects were serious enough that they engaged my interest for another round. I love the characters, and the actors were great, but I didn't see the need to make another Vacation movie.

Harold Ramis

The best subjects are always people, who never fail to amaze me by their unpredictability.

Ronnie James Dio

I have this extraordinary curiosity about all subjects of the natural and human world and the interaction between the physical sciences and the social sciences.

Ian Hacking

We are time's subjects, and time bids be gone.

William Shakespeare

If you think of yourselves as helpless and ineffectual, it is certain that you will create a despotic government to be your master. The wise despot, therefore, maintains among his subjects a popular sense that they are helpless and ineffectual.

Frank Herbert

Men gossip for just as long and about the same subjects as women, but tend to talk more about themselves.

Kate Fox

I was raised by maternal grandparents who were born in 1890 and 1899, respectively. They were British subjects; George V was the cousin of the tsar. The Romanovs were very real in their household.

Kathryn Harrison

These days, my subjects are murder and mayhem and other terrible things that happen to people - things that are even worse than cutting yourself shaving. And these are not the sorts of things you feel the need to experience before you write about them.

Linwood Barclay

You talked about national identity cards and the terrorism bill. We have made a government that has grown used to viewing us as subjects, has grown used to seeing its role as commanding us.

Malcolm Wallop

I don't plan to write another science book, but I don't plan not to. I do enjoy writing histories, and taking subjects that are generally dull and trying to make them interesting.

Bill Bryson
