Joe Palooka - Listen To

Famous quotes related to listen to:

“You listen to artists fighting with each other, competing to the death like gladiators, in order to see who is going to get into a show, who is going to make it, who isn’t: who is going to get a full-page ad and who is going to get a half-page. Then I think, ‘Wouldn’t it be wonderful to go off somewhere and just do your work?’”
—Howardena Pindell (b. 1943)

“When the enterprising burglar isn’t burgling,
When the cut-throat isn’t occupied in crime,
He loves to hear the little brook a-gurgling,
And listen to the merry village chime.”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

“It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to.... The feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures.”
—Vincent Van Gogh (1853–1890)

“From time to time I listen to what you are saying, just in case a response is needed.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“Say to the farmer: There is your crop; here is mine. Mine is a sugar to sweeten sugar with. If you will listen to me, I will sweeten your whole load,—your whole life.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
