There has been 32 isms since the advent of cubism, yet after all there are essentially the same two old strings, the Romantic and the Classical. We've just be confused by the storm. Science and psychology have played a great part to say nothing of sex.

You've got this piece of wood and some wires, pickups and some strings. How somebody uses that configuration to make something memorable, that's what's interesting to me.
Don Felder
Image
I play until my fingertips are raw. Until I rip a nail and bleed on the strings. Until my hands hurt so bad I forget my heart does.
Jennifer Donnelly

We're all puppets, Laurie. I'm just a puppet who can see the strings.
Alan Moore

I'm a firm believer that lighting affects mood, and twinkly lights on strings bring something magical to occasions ranging from concerts to weddings, though I'm fond of using them as year-round home decor. There's a reason why they're sometimes called fairy lights. When the night is right, there aren't any strings at all.
Erin Morgenstern

If the music is good, and if it makes sense as a strong structure and as a drama, and things happen as a result of what happened before, not just as a string of unrelated events, then the question doesn't come up.
Missy Mazzoli

You know, for most of its life bluegrass has had this stigma of being all straw hats and hay bales and not necessarily the most sophisticated form of music. Yet you can't help responding to its honesty. It's music that finds its way deep into your soul because it's strings vibrating against wood and nothing else.
Alison Krauss
Image
I've returned to being an amateur without any ties or strings attached, which gives me a freedom I never had before.
Cat Stevens

Grab a guitar, put some kind of strings on it, a banjo string, then a violin string, then a guitar string, tune it any way you want, and make some noise, and see what you get. And work on it until you get something that you think is interesting. That's all there is to art for me.
Buffy Sainte-Marie

The bow of God's wrath is bent, and His arrows made ready upon the string. Justice points the arrow at your heart and strings the bow. It is nothing but the mere pleasure of God (and that of an angry God without any promise or obligation at all) that keeps the arrow one moment from being made drunk with your blood.
Jonathan Edwards

Einstein comes along and says, space and time can warp and curve, that's what gravity is. Now string theory comes along and says, yes, gravity, quantum mechanics, electromagnetism - all together in one package, but only if the universe has more dimensions than the ones that we see.
Brian Greene
Image
The moments of beauty, the moments when you feel blessed, are only moments but memory and imagination, treasuring them, can string them together... Everything else passes away that which you love remains.
Brian Morton

I've often said, not totally jokingly, that screenwriting doesn't really qualify as real writing at all. You don't string sentences into paragraphs. You don't maintain a constant breath, or create internal rhythms, or even develop a fully-formed thought. The camera does all that work for you!
Jonathan Raymond

We can try to kill all that is native, string it up by its hind legs for all to see, but spirit howls and wildness endures.
Terry Tempest Williams

I felt as out of place as a left-handed violinist in a crowded string section.
Chic Murray

There's nothing like a string of Xmas lights inside the house to make the whole family feel like they live in a vintage clothing store.
Dana Gould
Image
I have sounded the very base-string of humility.
William Shakespeare
Image
With a clear sky, a bright sun, and a gentle breeze, you will have friends in plenty but let fortune frown, and the firmament be overcast, and then your friends will prove like the strings of the lute, of which you will tighten ten before you find one that will bear the stretch and keep the pitch.
Gotthold Ephraim Lessing
Image
But the lover's power is the poet's power. He can make love from all the common strings with which this world is strung.
Amelia Barr
Image
History is a string full of knots, the best you can do is admire it, and maybe tie it up a bit more. History is a hammock for swinging and a game for playing.
Jeanette Winterson
Image
Ane bow that is ay bent Worthis ay unsmart and dullis on the string Sa dois the mynd that is ay diligent In ernistfull thochtis and in studying.
Robert Henryson
Image
We all share in the same cosmic rhythm... For all natural laws are like the rhythm of the strings of the harp.
Ernesto Cardenal
Image
The sweetest noise on earth, a woman's tongue A string which hath no discord.
Bryan Procter
Image
Who seeketh two strings to one bow, they may shoot strong, but never straight.
Elizabeth I
