Malcolm Gladwell Quotes

If a show is good, it helps people learn about themselves in some way and in some function. Whatever the genre is, if it's executed well, audiences grow and learn from it, and that's where their passion and enthusiasm comes from.

If you believe in your art, and you love what you do, that energy will go out, and people will respond.

Enthusiasm could not supply the place of experience.

Our estimate of a character always depends much on the manner in which that character affects our own interests and passions.

The only thing that works with writing is that you care so passionately about it yourself, that you make someone else care passionately about it.

Technique alone is never enough. You have to have passion. Technique alone is just an embroidered potholder.

Forget all the conventional 'rules' but one. There is one golden rule: Stick to topics you deeply care about and don't keep your passion buttoned inside your vest. An audience's biggest turn-on is the speaker's obvious enthusiasm. If you are lukewarm about the issue, forget it!

Passion colors all that it touches in its own hues.

Maybe sincerity is the new punk. But to me, I think I have to connect with something emotionally, on some level, or I don't care about it. And if I don't care about it, then I don't think anyone listening to it will, either.

I want to give you some love, I want to give you some good good lovin

You have to remember everything you've created. But then comes a moment when it's all automatic pilot, where it all comes together and you don't have to think about it any more.

You can't teach anyone. You can't tell anyone. That's the thing you have to sit down and experience in order for it to mean anything. You can't intellectualize it. It's like why movies are cool. It's a combination of pictures and design and acting and music can create an experience that is outside of the experience that you can actually have in reality, which gets to my motion picture philosophy. People are like, 'aren't you trying to make the movies as real as you can?'
