You know I need a dream Like I need my breath We need to take the life Before we get the death You know I need your love Like I need the light Yes I need the chance Can it be tonight?

Harry Chapin

Television is often out ahead on social issues. With film, we've only recently proved that one of the oldest misconceptions in the book is wrong, which is the idea that girls will see films with boys as protagonists, but boys won't see movies with girls as protagonists.

Nina Jacobson

I think I like reluctant protagonists.

Vikramaditya Motwane

We need art as much as we need good works. You need it like food. You need it for inspiration to keep going on the days that your low. We need each other in that way.

Meryl Streep

I think women have every right to feel like they're the protagonists in their own stories.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

As an author, you need to keep talking to your audience to remind yourself what they like and what they don't like. You spend most of your life locked in a room, and you need to be social occasionally.

Jonathan Stroud

You have to go out of your way as a suspense novelist to find situations where the protagonists are somewhat helpless and in real danger.

Nelson DeMille

A true nature is a gloomy monolith, sort of like that old black rotary phone that I had to sing 'Happy Birthday' to Grandpa on. But novelists, damn us, still need true natures - so we can give them to our protagonists. And so readers can vaguely predict how they'll behave when we trap them in 'situations' that they can't IM their way out of.

Walter Kirn

Women need to tell their stories from their experiences, and that may not mean that it would be all stories with women as protagonists.

Parvathy

We need Jesus like we need oxygen. Like we need water. Like the branch needs the vine. Jesus is not merely a figure for devotions. He is the missing essence of your existence. Whether we know it or not, we are desperate for Jesus.

John Eldred

I like when people question if the characters are really villains or protagonists. These types are very interesting to write about.

Jack Higgins

I feel like I have had to catch up to the art I've made, and learn from the protagonists I have written, especially in relation to gender.

Vivek Shraya

The thing that I've learned is to stay ready to be ready, and I tell this to young people all the time. You don't have time to get ready. So, what that means to me is if you don't like your hair, your weave is wack, your teeth need fixing, if your attitude needs adjusting and you need therapy, you really want to lose 10 pounds - whatever that is for you - then you need to work on it starting now.

Vanessa Bell Calloway

Politics becomes a part of a writer's working life. The writer's protagonists are born in the context of the feelings that this atmosphere evokes. How can writers separate themselves from these feelings and create protagonists that come from Mars? Even writers who only write about psychological or internal issues or about love are writing under their prevailing atmosphere, and their writings will take on the hue of the time, place, and mood of their environment.

Simin Behbahani

I like getting under the skin of the protagonists of every book I read, it makes the whole story so much more personal.

Shweta Bachchan Nanda

Pianos, unlike people, sing when you give them your every growl. They know how to dive into the pit of your stomach and harmonize with your roars when you’ve split yourself open. And when they see you, guts shining, brain pulsing, heart right there exposed in a rhythm that beats need need, need need, need need, pianos do not run. And so she plays.
