Tone Quotes

“Maybe it was over a dozen years of having to obey Petunia immediately or having Minerva McGonagall for his Head of House or being friends with Hermione Granger…sort of. But whatever caused it, Harry knew instinctively that when an individual of the female gender got that tone in her voice, he damn well better stop, shut up, and pay attention... Neville, growing up with his Gran, froze as well, being equally as well-trained as Harry regarding female tones.”

“His chief form of entertainment was reading. The last moments he was in a cabin were usually spent scanning bookshelves and nightstands. The life inside a book always felt welcoming to Knight. It pressed no demands on him, while the world of actual human interactions was so complex. Conversations between people can move like tennis games, swift and unpredictable. There are constant subtle visual and verbal cues, there's innuendo, sarcasm, body language, tone. Everyone occasionally fumbles an encounter, a victim of social clumsiness. It's part of being human. To Knight, it all felt impossible. His engagement with the written word might have been the closest he could come to genuine human encounters. The stretch of days between thieving raids allowed him to tumble into the pages, and if he felt transported he could float in bookworld, undisturbed, for as long as he pleased.”

“Before I start a film or a play, I try to build a world in my mind. An imaginative world which the character lives in; and I create that with novels, with painting, with music, with films. I try and understand tone. Tone is so important. Is this a thriller, is this a Gothic romance, is this an action film, is this a love story? Then, once I understand that, I just jump into it. This might be like an incomplete way of describing it, but it's like I build a swimming pool, then I just dive in. Do you know what I mean?”

“Kila mtu kabla ya kuzaliwa alipewa na Mwenyezi Mungu unabii na nyota ya ufalme. Una bahari ya fursa ya kuwa kitu chochote unachotaka kuwa katika dunia hii. Kama unataka furaha, furaha iko ndani yako. Kama unataka utajiri, utajiri uko ndani yako. Kama unataka amani, amani iko ndani yako. Kama wewe ni tone na fursa ni bahari, wewe ni bahari ndani ya tone.”

“Unapofikia hatua ya kuwa na kila kitu katika maisha, unapokuwa umefanya kila kitu ulichotamani kufanya katika maisha, unakuwa na bahari nzima ndani ya tone ambalo ni wewe. Unaridhika. Wewe si tone tena ndani ya bahari, wewe ni bahari ndani ya tone. Kinachobaki baada ya hapo ni kusaidia jamii iliyosaidia kukulea ulipokuwa mdogo, kuacha alama katika dunia kabla na baada ya wewe kuondoka, bila kujali watu watasema nini juu ya maisha yako.”

“The great law of art is uniformity of tone; since it cannot record all experience, its fidelity to its chosen fragment of experience implies its consciousness of all experience as a similar though more variegated uniformity of tone. (To intrude into a work an unrelated tone is to imply that one is incorporating the ‘all,’ a presumption that speaks volumes on the author’s inability to grasp experience’s multiplicity.) Here lies the greatness of Jane Austen: her perfection in the small implies her comprehension of the large.”
