You can’t learn your craft by copying me or anyone else. I hope what I do can do is in some way inspire others but I would be appalled if I thought my work was being studied as ‘the right way to do the job’. My way is just one of an infinite number of ways to do the job.
Roger Deakins

Hardboiled crime fiction came of age in Black Mask magazine during the Twenties and Thirties. Writers like Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler learnt their craft and developed a distinct literary style and attitude toward the modern world.
Charles Frazier
Image
We have to craft new political realities, not only in places like India, Afghanistan, Kenya, Pakistan, but here at home as well. Another world is possible.
Alex Steffen

A chef is a mixture maybe of artistry and craft. You have to learn the craft really to get there.
Wolfgang Puck
Image
I recognize that it is through the engagement with my craft - by recognizing an idea and drawing it out, building physical models, collaborating with experts, constructing the sculptures at urban scale, and maintaining them through years of weather and interaction with the public - that a new art for cities has become real.
Janet Echelman
Image
I never regarded my pictures as very much to be proud of, except in this, the craft, the style.
Douglas Sirk
Image
Never hesitate to imitate another writer - every person learning a craft or an art needs models. Eventually you'll find your own voice and will shed the skin of the writer you imitated.

A big part of country music is a way of life, at least from my standpoint. That's how I craft my music from my own life experiences.
Luke Bryan

But really important, perhaps most important is the craft how you make your record, the creation of these sonic worlds you want your listener to hear.
Duncan Sheik
Image
Sit down every day and DO IT. Writing is a self-taught craft the more you work at it, the more skilled you become. And when you're not writing, READ.
Lois Duncan
Image
At another level, though, poems can craft an eraser - we can't revise the past, but poems allow us some malleability, an increased freedom of response, comprehension, feeling. Choice, what choices are possible for any given person, is another theme that's run through my work from the start.
Jane Hirshfield

Magic is the craft of shaping, the craft of the wise, exhilarating, dangerous - the ultimate adventure. The power of magic should not be underestimated. It works, often in ways that are unexpected and difficult to control.

I grew up studying ballet I grew up honing my craft.
Janice Dickinson
Image
There’s always been this hocus-pocus or magical, mystical thing associated with the making of film that sort of psyches people out and makes them think that this cannot be done that this is a craft that cannot be learned.
Spike Lee
Image
Race relations can be an appropriate issue... but only if you want to craft solutions, and not catalogue complaints. If we use the issue appropriately, we can transform it from the cancer of our society into the cure.
David Dinkins
Image
I actually work at my craft, and I actually want to be the best in my category, and I want to be a true actress. And a lot of people just want fame, and there's a huge difference.
Chloe Grace Moretz
Image
Isn't today a day to devote to craft? Isn't tomorrow? Isn't every day, routinely, until the end of time?
Eric Maisel
Image
I believe you have to start with a craft you don't just start with a dream. You've got to put a lot of work in. If you want to pursue acting, then you go to acting class. If you want to be a dancer, then you learn to dance, which is what I did.
Goldie Hawn

The craft of photography is the key to good images.
Ansel Adams
Image
Always work with people that are better at their craft than you are.
Tony Vincent
Image
Too many photographers try too hard. They try to lift photography into the realm of Art, because they have an inferiority complex about their craft. You and I would see more interesting photography if they would stop worrying, and instead, apply horse-sense to the problem of recording the look and feel of their own era.
Jessie Tarbox Beals
Image
Look, I come from vaudeville, I come from burlesque, I come from heartaches, I come from sadness, I come from gladness, I come from work and sweat and respect for the craft.
Mickey Rooney
Image
Seek one woman whom thou canst trust, and to her who lovest thee best, tell thy secrets. She will deliver thee from the hands of strange women, she will expose their craft and of her who flattereth thee, will she make known the reason.
Gelett Burgess
Image
Monarch of earth, I shall confess my secret craft: I've always fought to purify wild flame to light, and kindle whatever light I found to burst in flame.
