When you hear me, you know it’s me, regardless of the song.
I’ve woken up from dreams and the whole song is there. I’m listening to it in my dreams. I consciously have to wake myself up and get a tape recorder because I hear it like a record.
The language you are about to hear… is disturbing.
Every day or two, I strolled to the village to hear some of the gossip which is incessantly going on there, circulating either from mouth to mouth, or from newspaper to newspaper, and which, taken in homeopathic doses, was really as refreshing in its way as the rustle of leaves and the peeping of frogs.
We need to hear the excuses men make to themselves for their worthlessness.
I think people hear the warmth in my voice and the friendliness, and they think: ‘Oh, she must be a very nice person’.
If it looks good, you’ll see it. If it sounds good, you’ll hear it. If its marketed right, you’ll buy it. But… If its real… you’ll feel it.
The only reason I would take up jogging is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.
I’ll always write music. Whether I release a record, whether I let the public hear it or not, I’m always writing music.
I didn’t really hear any other music other than what my dad was working on until I was 12. My recollection of hearing other music was that I liked some things that I heard but I always thought, ‘Where’s the rest of it?’ It didn’t have the same amount of detail or instrumentation or imagination in the arrangements.
If the president were standing here with me today, he would say he works for the American people. I work for him, so I also work for the American people, but his objective and his commitment is to bring transparency and truth back to government, to share the truth, even when it’s hard to hear.
People want to hear what I have to say and respect what I say.
Music is the greatest communication in the world. Even if people don’t understand the language that you’re singing in, they still know good music when they hear it.
Worldwide is an overused word. But it’s true that being known has given me new ideas and a chance to get to know new people who think in different ways. I want to hear myself referred to as Elie Saab, without labels or titles.
I want to reach the point where people hear my name and immediately think of real country music.
For the people who are offended about the fact that we have a bunch of criminals and criminal enablers and buffoons and scheisters and con men and frauds and real estate frauds running our country and our government, they like to hear that they’re not the only ones that feel that way.
Learn to be quiet enough to hear the genuine within yourself so that you can hear it in others.
I have some amazing fans! They’re just so dedicated and so nice and so sweet. I’m, like, no one and I’m just starting out, and these people appreciate your work and it’s nice to hear that.
When somewhat at a distance, I cannot hear the high tones of instruments, voices. In speaking, it is not surprising that there are people who have never noticed it, for as a rule I am absent-minded, and they account for it in that way.
I actually think the deafness makes you see clearer. If you can’t hear, you somehow see.
I think with certain artists you want to hear their album… and then there are other artists who I like where maybe it’s more about the single. I don’t think there is going to be one way that everything works.
For an average noun or an average verb, an average mind can quickly create reference. Where did they hear it? See it? What does it remind them of? What is its connection? When was it last used in conversation? What has been my experience with it? A host of memories appear when you hear a word you remember.
I was very shocked to hear about Michael Jackson’s passing. He was a pioneer, and icon and a legend. I remember buying ‘Thriller’ when I was pretty young.
To hear of a thousand deaths in war is terrible, and we ‘know’ that it is. But as it registers on our hearts, it is not more terrible than one death fully imagined.
The temple bell stops but I still hear the sound coming out of the flowers.
You’ll hear people say now, ‘Oh, I don’t want to see something in 3-D. That’s wrong, because what they’ve seen is 3-D done poorly.
I can understand criticism coming from people who have met me, but it is off-putting to hear nasty things about myself from people I have never met or even seen in life.
I love the forest. It is the place where you hear yourself better.
Men fall in love with their eyes – they like what they see – and women fall in love with their ears – they like what they hear!
Seriously, I don’t find not being able to hear an obstacle or a boundary. For me, and for many of us, it is an advantage, and it’s a part of my identity, in fact. It’s a huge part of who I am.
If you hear a voice within you say ‘you cannot paint,’ then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.
There are a ton of people doing great things every day, and you don’t hear about it!
I am moving towards that zone where I don’t want to be a replaceable name. This is my goal. I want to hear from the industry that, ‘You are the only one who can do this. We will not go ahead with the project if you don’t do this.’ And I want to hear from the audience that it is worth watching a film that I have done.
I don’t really sing… I just hear notes so I know what it’s supposed to sound like, if that makes sense. You ever hear someone try to teach a choir how to sing, but they can’t sing? That’s me.
When you hear Liverpool want you, you call your agent back in about five seconds.
As for memes, the word ‘meme’ is a cliche, which is to say it’s already a meme. We all hear it all the time, and maybe we even have started to use it in ordinary speech. The man who invented it was Richard Dawkins, who was, not coincidentally, an evolutionary biologist. And he invented it as an analog for the gene.
Man, coaching is a hard job, and it requires a lot of time… I hear stories from coaches who tell me that players call them in the middle of the night not knowing where they parked their car.
I would have been a much more popular Wolrd Champion if I had always said what people wanted to hear. I might have been dead, but definitely more popular.
Some songs are just like tattoos for your brain… you hear them and they’re affixed to you.
‘The Skeptical Environmentalist’ was much more the idea of the scientific argument of realizing that we need to be skeptical about a lot of these stories that we hear and to put them in context.

I frequently hear music in the very heart of noise.
The most wonderful thing I hear is people coming up and saying ‘Thank you for my childhood’, which still blows my mind but is very sweet.
I tremble for my country when I hear of confidence expressed in me. I know too well my weakness, that our only hope is in God.
It’s all performing; that’s what we do in life. We talk, we look, and we hear, and we listen. Your life is a performance.
I think the fans really wanna hear the songs the way they sound on the record.
I think the whole world is dying to hear someone say, ‘I love you.’ I think that if I can leave the legacy of love and passion in the world, then I think I’ve done my job in a world that’s getting colder and colder by the day.
I hear from people all the time and it infuriates me that ‘President Obama’s a brilliant politician.’ No he absolutely is not.
The pinnacle of the fulfillment I can ever experience for my spirit and soul is to hear from the Lord, when I see Him face to face, ‘Well done my good and faithful servant.’
When the Beatles wrote ‘Paperback Writer,’ it couldn’t have been the same old thing. You can hear so many influences in it, from the blues to Bach, and it’s not just verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge chorus. They start off singing a cappella, almost like a Bach chorale, and the song goes into this bluesy guitar riff.
We hear only those questions for which we are in a position to find answers.
‘Hound Dog’ took like twelve minutes. That’s not a complicated piece of work. But the rhyme scheme was difficult. Also the metric structure of the music was not easy. ‘Kansas City’ was maybe eight minutes, if that. Writing the early blues was spontaneous. You can hear the energy in the work.
Whenever you hear the consensus of scientists agrees on something or other, reach for your wallet, because you’re being had.
My message to everyone: the next time you hear about migrant children near the border, just picture them as your own. Then think what you would want our government to do.
Oratory is the masterful art. Poetry, painting, music, sculpture, architecture please, thrill, inspire – but oratory rules. The orator dominates those who hear him, convinces their reason, controls their judgment, compels their action. For the time being, he is master.
I doubt I’ll be singing forever, because at some point people aren’t going to want to hear my music, and I hope that I’ll still get the opportunity to write songs.
What I’ve come to know is that in life, it’s not always the questions we ask, but rather our ability to hear the answers that truly enriches our understanding. Never, never stop learning.
