“Jane Austen wrote six of the most beloved novels in the English language, we are informed at the end of Becoming Jane, and so she did. The key word is beloved. Her admirers do not analyze her books so much as they just plain love them to pieces.” BookEndsLanguageNovelPiecesKeysBecomingSixBelovedJaneEnglish LanguageAdmirerAusten Book:Roger Ebert's Movie Yearbook 2009 Source: Roger Ebert's Movie Yearbook 2009
“The scent organ was playing a delightfully refreshing Herbal Capriccio - rippling arpeggios of thyme and lavender, of rosemary, basil, myrtle, tarragon; a series of daring modulations through the spice keys into ambergris; and a slow return through sandalwood, camphor, cedar and newmown hay (with occasional subtle touches of discord - a whiff of kidney pudding, the faintest suspicion of pig's dung) back to the simple aromatics with which the piece began. The final blast of thyme died away; there was a round of applause; the lights went up.” LightSimplePiecesKeysReturnDiedSeriesFinalsRoundsSubtleCulinaryDaringOrgansSuspicionPigsScentOccasionalApplauseSpicesBlastRefreshingDiscordKidneysPuddingHayLavenderCedarsRosemaryMyrtleBasilThymeSandalwood Book:The Collected Works of Aldous Huxley: Brave new world Source: The Collected Works of Aldous Huxley: Brave new world
“The key of writing fiction isn't just to remove something that the reader or listener can easily imagine. It's not a matter of being coy, or withholding information. It's allowing for multiple possibilities, recognizing the complexity of human behavior, and making the world of a piece of fiction as marvelously confounding as the world we live in.” WorldWritingHumansMatterFictionPiecesImagineInformationPossibilityKeysReaderBehaviorComplexityRemoveAllowingMultipleListenersHuman BehaviorRecognizingWriting FictionWithholdingConfoundingComplexity Of HumanWithholding Information Author:Peter Turchi

“I take bits and pieces from every director. I'd say Sylvain [White] and Nimrod [Antal]. They were more about teaching me lens sizes and depth of field and how to move the camera and lighting. I do want to direct and I didn't go to film school, so having a director that are very much hands on that way and looking to let me learn, that is a key factor.” WayWantHandsSchoolFilmMovingBitsWhitePiecesTeachingFieldsKeysDirectorsDirectLet MeCamerasDepthSizeFactorsLensesLightingFilm SchoolBits And PiecesDepth Of Field Author:Columbus Short

“A hundred years ago-even 20 or 30 years ago-it was possible, if not always easy, to close major business by calling on and satisfying a key decision-maker. Today, every piece of business entails multiple decisions, and those decisions are virtually never made by the same person. Not only do you have to contend with multiple decisions, but the people who make those decisions may not even work in the same place.” PeopleIfsYearsMayPersonsMadeTodayEasyDecisionPiecesKeysCallingMajorsHundredYears AgoMakersSatisfyingMultipleDecision Makers Author:Brian Tracy
