A Quote by Stephen Chbosky

Writing a novel is a lot like directing a movie because you are creating a world and a tone, you are creating a large canvas and all the details.

I love directing. I love creating things that I don't necessarily even have to be in. I like creating worlds. So I'm getting into writing movies and selling movies and television shows and creating worlds that then get to live beyond me.

Greg Cipes

Directing a movie precludes me from being involved in any greater way. But, the job was never to do more, it was always to enable. Sometimes as a producer, you're creating and writing it, or sometimes you're writing and directing it, or other times you're there from the very beginning.

J. J. Abrams

I like and I love everything that has to do with cinema, writing, directing, editing, creating music, and even acting.

Werner Herzog

I like and I love everything that has to do with cinema: writing, directing, editing, creating music, and even acting.

Werner Herzog

I see the job of directing as being one of creating the right atmosphere, creating an environment where people can realize their full potential.

Joe Wright

The good thing about writing a novel is that you're creating an imaginary world and can take a break when you need to.

Liane Moriarty

Like bees creating a beehive or ants creating an anthill we're all moving along creating something and we're not sure what it is.

Joe Rogan

Whenever I'm out and I hear something, I'm writing. It's the process of writing it down and then just always creating wherever you go. I never stop creating.

Sabrina Carpenter

What I like most about directing is creating a world more so than anything. To me, the music is the wrapping paper on that world.

Matthew Gray Gubler

I think there's an aspect of my soul, of my personality, that's very suited to directing. I like being in the room with actors; I love creating a safe space and a chaotic space for the discovery to take place. I love creating a sense of community.

George C. Wolfe

I have to be honest: I think production is mad - exciting - because, of course, you're creating the record. When you're a singer, you're just singing. Creating the music, directing, and seeing where it's gonna go in production is very, very exciting.

Labrinth

As long as I'm creating, I am happy... whether directing, producing, writing, acting.

Ralph Macchio

The writing is amazing because having a hand in creating what you're going to be performing... there's nothing like it. It's always going to be better suited for you. You're always going to know the lines faster, because you wrote it. The writing is so very hard. It's the hardest part of the whole process. In some ways the acting is a lot easier and a lot more fun.

Alex Borstein

Men are thinking, writing, and creating, because women were pouring their energy into those men; women are not creating culture because they are occupied with love.

Shulamith Firestone

The magic of comics is that there are three people involved in any comic. There's whoever's writing it and whoever's drawing it. And then there's whoever's reading it because they are creating the movement. They are creating the illusion of time passing.

Neil Gaiman

Herzog and Malick both have this very unique naturalist intentionality to their process. It's about creating the mood, creating the focus and having discipline, but not prescribing what the performance was supposed to be. Neither of them are really directing their actors into a performance.
