I'm a visual thinker. With almost all of my writing, I start with something that's visual: either the way someone says something that is visual or an actual visual description of a scene and color.

Gerald Vizenor

There are people who seem to be on the verge of going either way, and something kicks in to support either the visual or the auditory. Maybe if you are in a rush for success you follow the one that is the most successful, and the other falls to the wayside.

Brian Chippendale

Usually in theater, the visual repeats the verbal. The visual dwindles into decoration. But I think with my eyes. For me, the visual is not an afterthought, not an illustration of the text. If it says the same thing as the words, why look? The visual must be so compelling that a deaf man would sit though the performance fascinated.

Robert Wilson

Well, I think my stand-up is often kind of visual. Not like Carrot Top visual, but visual.

Michael Ian Black

A visual sense is something you either have or you don't.

Elliott Erwitt

As far as stimulus from the visual arts specifically, there is today in most of us a visual appetite that is hungry, that is acutely undernourished. One might go so far as to say that Protestants in particular suffer from a form of visual anorexia. It is not that there is a lack of visual stimuli, but rather a lack of wholesomeness of form and content amidst the all-pervasive sensory overload.

John Walford

I've been a visual artist my entire life, so translating music to imagery has always come naturally to me. Tycho is an audio-visual project in a lot of ways, so I don't see a real separation between the visual and musical aspects; they are both just components of a larger vision.

Tycho

We are visual creatures. Visual things stay put, whereas sounds fade.

Steven Pinker

You must have a visual sense if you want to be a photographer. It is a very subtle thing, this visual business.

Elliott Erwitt

I'm a visual person - when I write, my input is always visual. I worked in television for several years.

Karen Traviss

I write on a visual canvas, 'seeing' a scene in my thoughts before translating it into language, so I'm a visual junkie.

Marianne Wiggins

Television is a visual medium. You have to create some kind of visual interest. And it's entertainment for your eyes.

Aaron Sorkin

If you want a lot of visual humor, the way to do it is have visual people do it.

Dan Povenmire

I'm a visual person, and I love visual extremes and aesthetic discipline.

Violet Chachki

I'm a big fan of fiction film where you have a story and you have to transform that into a visual language, basically working with actors and also transforming that into how you pronounce that in the visual language of the shots, the construction of the shots and the lighting. All of that appealed to me from the beginning of my career at the university. When I graduated from the university, I wanted to deal mainly with that, with the visual aspect of the movie.

Dror Moreh

I am a film director, and I work with a visual language, with a visual medium. And I try to make virtue of the use of this visual medium. And I try to make sure what I do speaks the language of cinema.

Luca Guadagnino
