We got in after a ten hour drive after sleeping for four hours. I'm not complaining here. I'm really not complaining. Ten hour drive to get here, we unload, we sound check, we get here we take photos, we do this. I haven't eaten anything today. It's like. . . And I'm not even hungry.
It was very difficult to startle or surprise someone with a particular sound during the family computer era.
It just seemed so odd as people had never commented on my body before. Every woman obsesses over her figure, but I was happy, I felt sexy, I never thought about it. I know this sounds naive, but I honestly never expected this kind of attention.
We all know the sound a camera makes when it snaps a picture. Even some of the digitals do it for nostalgia’s sake.
This is a writer’s lesson: To learn that the sounds that we imagine can be the clearest, loudest sounds of all.
Quite often I'll turn on the television and something like Sound of Music will be on or VictorVictoria and I might watch a moment or two. But I don't actually sit down and say I'm going to watch one of my movies.
A sound banker, alas, is not one who foresees danger and avoids it, but one who, when he is ruined, is ruined in a conventional and orthodox way along with his fellows, so that no one can really blame him. It is necessarily part of the business of a banker to maintain appearances, and to confess a conventional respectability, which is more than human. Life-long practices of this kind make them the most romantic and the least realistic of men.
Okay, this might sound vague, but do you know this one girl with hair like this?
I've looked at all of Hitler's speeches thinking that there's gotta be one where he's 'I'm Hitler!', but there weren't any. His speeches were all about hope and prosperity - he ran on a platform of peace and prosperity. Hitler speeches that makes him sound like a villain are pretty hard to find, he was very detached from what he was doing, he kept himself compartmentalised from it.
Intellectuals never sound more foolish than when posing as the last civilised man.
Scott Tixier is an exciting young jazz violinist and is making an international name for himself. I heard him in France and was immediately struck by his individuality and his sound.
a little of the ready reliance on the expert comes from the desire to waive responsibillity, comes from the endless evasion of life instead of an honest facing of it. The expert is to many what the priest is, someone who knows absolutely and can tell us what to do. The king, the priest, the expert, have one after the other had our allegiance, but so far as we put any of them in the place of ourselves, we have not a sound society and neither individual nor general progress.
I'm definitely going to miss hearing the sound of that gun.
Sound, and therefore music, can help shape or reshape our thoughts, even our cells.
Rumor and gossip, like sound itself, appear to travel by wave-effect, sheer preposterosity being no barrier.
Maybe the gruffness and anger can be done with a purity of sound.
I've always sensed what a script should sound like - even before the movie's been made
I have much clearer memories of my time in Egypt: songs on the radio, the rhythms that accompanied belly dancers, the sound of the adhan - the Muslim call to prayer. I just soaked it all up.
I like films where the music and the sound design, at times, are almost indistinguishable.
Jacian Obregon. It sounds like a melody. Or a tragedy.
