I'm not one of those authors who claims to hear voices in my head or 'let the characters speak through me,' whatever that might mean.

I now understand what Nelle Morton meant when she said that one of the great tasks in our time is to "hear people to speech." Behind their fearful silence, our students want to find their voices, speak their voices, have their voices heard. A good teacher is one who can listen to those voices even before they are spoken-so that someday they can speak with truth and confidence.

Parker J. Palmer

The books, the authors who matter the most are those who speak to me and speak for me all those things about life I most need to hear as the confession of myself

Aidan Chambers

Im okay Im okay now. But you really need to listen to me 'cause im telling you the truth I mean this im okay Trust me... Im not okay ...Well okay im not okay. Im not o-f cking-kay

Gerard Way

When you write for a show that's not yours, your job is to hear the voices of the characters and write as best you can for those voices.

Amy Sherman-Palladino

I have so many different projects, I hear voices in my head - the characters talking all at once - and I have to write to make them stop.

Eli Roth

Im writing what comes into my head, or through me, or from somewhere else, and it is the most extraordinary, exciting thing. I love it, and Im very greedy, and I really enjoy it!

Tanith Lee

Im a writer, so whatever gymnastics jump through my head, I write about it.

Earl King

I don't want to say I hear voices; well, actually I do hear voices, but I don't think it's supernatural. I think it's just that when characters are given enough texture and backbone, then lo and behold, they stand on their own.

Anne Tyler

I write simply because I hear voices of people in my head who won't give me peace until I convey their stories to the rest of the world. Seriously. They've always been with me. While other girls played with dolls, and my brothers with Hot Wheels, I was busy traveling through space or traipsing through graveyards with my imaginary playmates.

Sherrilyn Kenyon

My first two books, I was very close to my main character, stuck inside their head. And then with 'Arrogance,' I broke into many different voices. I introduce many different characters, and that helped me to develop a confidence to move between different characters, between different voices.

Joanna Scott

When you hear voices in your head that tell you to shoot the pope, do you do what they say? Same thing goes for customers and managers. They are the crazy voices in your head, and you need to set them right, not just blindly do what they ask for.

Linus Torvalds

Everybody claims they have relatable, connectable characters, but those claims often aren't true.

David Walton

Im doing pretty good as far as geniuses go ... Im like a machine. Im a robot. You cannot offend a robot ... Im going down as a legend, whether or not you like me or not. I am the new Jim Morrison. I am the new Kurt Cobain ... The Bible had 20, 30, 40, 50 characters in it. You dont think that I would be one of the characters of todays modern Bible?

Kanye West

Dialogue comes naturally to me and I can hear the characters' voices in the scenes.

Wally Lamb

I have always felt my role was to do anything I could to enable the powerless to speak. I want America to hear these voices because they are beautiful voices.
