If you're writing about ordsprog

If you're writing about one real person in history, you can soak up that person as a human, collect all the things you can gloss over in a documentary. But to balance five or six of them, there isn't time to do justice to each character. And if you get too heavy on the science, you'll lose the audience.

Forget your generalized audience. In the first place, the nameless, faceless audience will scare you to death and in the second place, unlike the theatre, it doesn't exist. I have found that sometimes it helps to pick out one person, a real person you know, or an imagined person -- and write to that one.

John Steinbeck (1902-1968)

John Steinbeck

Never use the word 'audience.' The very idea of a public, unless the poet is writing for money, seems wrong to me. Poets don't have an 'audience': They're talking to a single person all the time.

Robert Graves (1895-1985)

I picked the best person I could find, ... People know we're close. But you got to understand, because of our closeness, I know the character of the person. It's one thing to say a person can read the law -- and that's important -- and understand the law. But what also matters . . . is the intangibles. To me, a person's strength of character counts a lot.

Without Teri, this case would have been dismissed. I have so much respect for what she did. This is a person who had nothing to gain and a lot to lose. But she volunteered to talk about the most heinous thing that could happen to a child, with no upside for her. It takes a person with a lot of emotional fortitude to do that; heroic is a word that doesn't even do it justice. She is a damn good person, and she knew what the right thing to do was.

Chuck Gillingham

There's no evidence it's efficiently transmitted from person to person, nor is it being sustained in the human population when it comes to person to person transmission. An overwhelming majority have gotten this from handling sick or dying birds.

As a hacker, Pex Tufvesson is in a class of his own. This character was me like four years ago. (He's) trying to make things work with the wrong person and screwing things up with the right person. I think that's something anyone can relate to.

We'll be looking at what the different world religions have to contribute to our understanding of the human person, nature, science and the divine. We'll be looking at convergence and divergence of religion and science.

Yeah, I do. To me, the audience can be one person. I'm so critical of myself that it's really hard for me to like get high on my own shit. I sometimes manage to do it, but most of the time not. So if I have somebody in the room that I'm sure they'll dig this. I like that. But it could be one person or it could be a hundred thousand.

Yngwie Malmsteen

We chose the languages because we wanted to help people, and the people that needed to be helped were Chinese-speaking person, Farsi-speaking person and Arabic-speaking person, ... In these countries, the censorship was so heavy that you need technical skills to circumvent the censorship and to be able to publish things anonymously.

I like to write first-person because I like to become the character I'm writing.

Whenever I play a role, whether it's good or bad, an evil person or nice person, I believe in being a purist and going all the way with the role. If I'm going to be a villainous wrestler, I believe in going all the way with it and not breaking character and not giving away to the audience that I'm playing a role. I believe in playing it straight to the hilt.

Andy Kaufman (1949-1984)

By the time the human resources department finds out about a job opening, the person doing the hiring has already found the person he wants to hire.

I left college early, I was immature, ... You go through certain things, but you learn from them and it builds character. I feel like everything happens for a reason, and I feel like God was putting me through those things to get me to the point right here and I feel like I am a better person. With me becoming a better person, out there on the field it is going to do nothing but benefit me.

What you are as a single person, you will be as a married person, only to a greater degree. Any negative character trait will be intensified in a marriage relationship, because you will feel free to let your guard down -- that person has committed himself to you and you no longer have to worry about scaring him off.
