Conceited people never hear anything but praise.

It’s real easy to manufacture what you think the people want to hear. But that’s not very honest.

I hear a lot of people singing in funny voices and singing like they’re stupid. Singing in a deliberately fey and dumb and childish way. And I find it to be a disturbing trend.

Nothing we use or hear or touch can be expressed in words that equal what is given by the senses.

If you allowed yourself to hear or feel amusement, you would hear and feel pain.

I wrote ‘Lakeside View Apartment Suites’ with Roman in my arms. He was about a month old. I was playing left-handed and finally handed him over. On the demo of it, you can hear him crying in the next room.

If you are writing a story and trying to draw an audience to come and hear you tell it, it’s got to in some way relate to them. Who wants to come and hear about your specific problems? It’s not therapy – it’s supposed to be a communal piece of entertainment.

Anytime people read my tweets, they hear it in Auto-Tune.

Listen to the trees as they sway in the wind.Their leaves are telling secrets. Their bark sings songs of olden days as it grows around the trunks. And their roots give names to all things.Their language has been lost.But not the gestures.

I love Billy Joel. I cry sometimes when I hear ‘The Stranger.’ ‘You May Be Right’ may be one of the greatest songs ever written.

Young men, hear an old man to whom old men hearkened when he was young.

When I smile, not only do my ears rise, but so does my listening ability. When my mouth goes all Helen Keller, you know I heard you.

Protect the ears of your heart, rather than being drawn in each day like the fading tides that dance daily with the moon.

The loudest voices we hear are those who advocate conflict, divisiveness.

I’m not a fan of the wimple; you can’t hear much when you’ve got it on.

I am not handsome, but when women hear me play, they come crawling to my feet.

Don’t be intimidated by people who seem to be experts. Hear their points of view and get their judgements. But at the end of day, you’ve got to make a judgement because it’s not their life that’s going to be affected so much as your future.

Those damn Moomins. I don’t want to hear about them any more. I could vomit on the Moomintrolls.

I hear music as narrative.

I often hear them accuse Israel of Judaizing Jerusalem. That’s like accusing America of Americanizing Washington, or the British of Anglicizing London. You know why we’re called ‘Jews’? Because we come from Judea.

Kids know me from their Grease DVD, so they instantly respond. You can hear a pin drop when I do my old songs.

It is the most delightful thing that ever happens to me, when I hear something coming out of my guitar and out of my mouth that wasn’t there before.

That’s why I don’t understand why actors become arrogant and are completely unapproachable – because as an actor, the most valuable thing you can do is talk to people and hear their stories, because it’ll all come in handy.

They hear it come out, but they don’t know how it got there. They don’t understand that’s life’s way of talking. You don’t sing to feel better. You sing ’cause that’s a way of understanding life.

You know how sometimes you hear a chord played on an organ and you can feel it vibrating in your bones? Sometimes when I’m writing, I can feel my bones vibrating because I’ll have a thought or I’ll have a character’s voice in my head, and that’s when I know I’m on the right track.

I actually had a bunch of songs that I worked on with Jamey Jasta from Hatebreed, but they were too heavy for me because my voice sounds good when I sing clean. It sounds good dirty too, but when I hear my voice sing really clean, that’s a special sound.

Hear the other side.

I name you today, heart fears. I am small, but you are smaller. You will not stop me. You have a voice, fears, and I must listen, but then I will open my heart. I will love you right to death.

I think the new generations in America, the America’s youth, no longer care about Vietnam. They don’t want to hear any more about it.

Any song I don’t feel good about, I shelve. Anything you ever hear me sing, it’s because I want to.

the clearer you hear, the wiser you become”!

Feed the dogs. I hate to hear them barking like that.

We hear a lot about rebuilding Detroit, and we just spent $70 billion to bail out the auto industry – well, they need to be cost competitive, too. If they have high-cost energy, those suppliers are going to move to Japan or Mexico instead of Michigan and Tennessee.

You hear doom and gloom about the Internet ruining young people’s command of English – that’s nonsense.

Hopefully it will be possible to get all our other albums in American shops one day so if people are interested they can hear it but I’m hoping that people are going to be interested in what we are going to do, not just what we’ve done.

I don’t over-sing anymore, which I used to suffer from terribly because I couldn’t hear myself.

Always hear others out and remain open-minded; the day you think you know everything is the day you have the most yet to learn.

You know who we hear about all the rappers from? The bus drivers.

I am a rebel! But I don’t want people to agree with my views, because if everyone agreed with me then I wouldn’t be rebellious anymore. Did you hear what I heard? Because I heard what I said. Hear what I mean, which is not necessarily what I say.

Sometimes the answers you need to hear aren’t the answers you want to hear.

Music always turns into music. As soon as I play a key, push a key down, there’s no theory any more. When I go and I hear a sound on the keyboard, all theories go out the window.

What I don’t do is try to like become whoever I’m rapping with. The people who go get an LL album want to hear LL.

As soon as I hear music, something in me starts to vibrate.

Throughout my life I have always been amazed that people couldn’t listen to other people, that they couldn’t hear their best intent, that there seemed to be an enormous need to demonize.

I should have asked why any room in the house was better than home to me when she entered it, and barren as a desert when she went out again—why I always noticed and remembered the little changes in her dress that I had noticed and remembered in no other woman’s before—why I saw her,...

It was so quiet, you could hear a pun drop.

If anything good came out of 9/11, to me, was that people were so cynical about the world – all you hear about on the news is all the bad stuff everyday, but what was refreshing to me was after that, you saw how many good people there are out there. For every one bad...

Love is inaudible—until you hear it. And once you do, you’ll never forget the sound of her voice.

When God opens a new page in your life, make photocopies of it, read it and share it with other people. Some may hear it when you read it, others may tear it when you share it.

It was very hard to get any records, so the only source for us to really hear what was happening was listening to the Voice of America. We would be taping all the broadcast and then sharing the tapes and talking about it.
