If you write really good material, the rest just falls into place. There's really no trick to it.
If there was a trick, there must be a trickster.
Man, the creature who knows he must die, who has dreams larger than his destiny, who is forever working a confidence trick on himself, needs an ally. Mine has been tobacco.
It's really hard to be a black Republican. I see what they go through. It's a good little trick the entire mainstream media has pulled by describing Republicans as "Racist! Racist! Racist!" and then turning around and laughing at us for not having more blacks in our party.
The trick in life is not to die. The trick in investing is not to lose.
Sometimes chemistry does the trick, and other times, you have to forge that with the people.
I've always been lucky in casting. The trick in casting is to hire great people, and let them do what they do, don't interfere with them too much. And then when they're great, take credit for it in the end.
You must acquire the trick of ignoring those who do not like you. In my experience, those who do not like you fall into two categories: the stupid, and the envious. The stupid will like you in five years time, the envious never.
He was a top man and a good professional. He was one of those who you know will never play a trick and you can ask him to do anything for you and he will. An unassuming man and a great loss to us all.

Unlike some of my peers, I haven't really hit a writer's block. When I hit a block I just paint, which is an old crop rotation trick.
I feel like it's always important to curl your eyelashes. I always do when I wake up and you know you look tired, when you curl eyelashes and put mascara it makes such a huge difference, so that's the trick that I always use.
I'll be the first to admit that we're the 90's version of Cheap Trick or the Knack. . .
The trick is simply to avoid jerks. There are lots of them out there. Most people are unhappy.
Death is not a checkmate…it is more like a carnival trick. You cannot win, no matter how you move your Queen.
The cleverest trick of the Devil is that nobody believes in him. It. Her. Well, we have been very stupid.
I think the trick of being a writer is to basically put your cards out there all the time and be willing to be as in the dark about what happens next as your reader would be at that time.
Snatching the eternal out of the desperately fleeting is the great magic trick of human existence.
