Top 10 most inspiring quotes by Kevin Smith
- There’s something to be said for failing. It’s not the failure you feel, it’s the failure that people project when something disappoints. You’re back to ground zero, where there’s no expectations, and that’s where I like to be.
- Controversial’ as we all know, is often a euphemism for ‘interesting and intelligent.
- Storytelling is my currency. It’s my only worth. The only thing of value I have in this life is my ability to tell a story, whether in print, orating, writing it down or having people acting it out.
- Don’t let anybody tell you different, man: The main goal in life careerwise should always be to try to get paid to simply be yourself.
- I know what it feels like to carry a lot of weight in a society that’s very image-conscious. It’s a thin person’s world, and we try to navigate within it without being made fun of.
- Everybody’s got one killer story. It doesn’t take talent to tell that story, it just takes experience.
- The writer crafts their ideal world. In my world, everyone has really long conversations or just picks apart pop culture to death and everyone talks in monologue.
- People like to set the bar high. I like to put the bar on the ground and barely step over it. I like to keep the expectations really low.
- All these people who say success changes people; well, no, it just magnifies what’s there.
- From now on, any flick I’m ever involved with, I conduct critics screenings thusly: ‘You wanna see it early to review it? Fine: pay like you would if you saw it next week.’
