A Quote by Adam Granduciel

I work off of my early demos. I'll keep adding on top of that, but I usually gravitate towards whatever that original idea was.

I gravitate towards anything that feels challenging to me, that feels like it's gonna be saying something a bit different and new to the audience, and anything that moves me. I do movies that I would want to see, so I don't necessarily gravitate towards any genre in particular. I just try and do the best work I can and also try to keep the audience guessing.

David Oyelowo

I just want to keep working. I guess I gravitate towards stories that I like and directors that I want to work with, and I hope that it works out.

Margaret Qualley

I don't make demos. I don't have the interest or the energy or the time. Demos are something you do in the early stages of your career, but when you get going, you just go in and record the song.

Mark Kozelek

The way to get to the top of the heap in terms of developing original research is to be a fool, because only fools keep trying. You have idea number 1, you get excited, and it flops. Then you have idea number 2, you get excited, and it flops. Then you have idea number 99, you get excited, and it flops. Only a fool would be excited by the 100th idea, but it might take 100 ideas before one really pays off. Unless you're foolish enough to be continually excited, you won't have the motivation, you won't have the energy to carry it through. God rewards fools.

The Bowery was a place that would let us do original songs - not just covers - but we would have to work for tips, so we learned how to work an audience. In order to keep our jobs, we had to keep people happy, so that meant playing the latest Lynyrd Skynyrd and ZZ Top or Merle Haggard.

I took classical piano for a couple of years, but I sort of lost interest - I couldn't read a note today if I tried. I still enjoy that stuff, and I think I naturally gravitate towards the classical licks; in fact, I know that I do. I gravitate towards the classical licks that I heard by famous old composers.

Tom Scholz

I believe in accepting whatever life offers with a laugh. So if things are dark and terrible, I try to find the funny side to it. Probably that's why I gravitate towards comedy.

Shenaz Treasury

I guess I gravitate towards stories that I like and directors that I want to work with, and I hope that it works out.

Margaret Qualley

I think it's less stressful to just make decisions as you go, because plans never work out, but you never run out of dreams. You have an eternal bucket list where you keep crossing things off, and keep adding things to the bottom.

Lzzy Hale

I just want to continue adding walls to my craft as an artist and business man. I never want to cap off, I never want to seal it. I just want to keep adding walls and keep on going as high as it can go, but I'm never gonna be boxed in, can't. That's when you lose because when you box yourself in, you know you get comfortable, you start getting complacent. I can't be like that.

Eskeerdo

Lawmakers need to be better stewards of policy and update it, not just keep adding on top of old laws.

Suzan DelBene

Go find very early versions of things: the first TV pilot of a later-successful TV show; early audition tapes by famous actors; early demos by famous musicians. Focus on these early examples, not what they became over the next 20 years. Remember that what you're doing will constantly improve.

Derek Sivers

Restorers of paintings and pottery follow a code of conduct in their work to distinguish the original material from what they are adding later.

Antony Beevor

Some days I don't feel confident wearing, like a crop-top. So, when you're getting dressed for the day, gravitate towards items that you feel comfortable in. Don't feel pressured to follow some trend.

Lindsay Ellingson

I want to continue to grow, and as long as I keep going out there doing what I'm doing and don't fall off from what I've learned already as they keep adding things on, I'll be fine.
