I don't think I handle the notes much differently from other pianists. But the pauses between the notes - ah, there is where the artistry lies!!
Artur Schnabel

I think we're the only jokeless show on television. I mean really, we have no setups and no punch lines. It's not a joke show. There are funny lines and funny moments but again the comedy is born of the human experience and awkward pauses are a great part of what it is to be human.
Rainn Wilson

Mausoleum air and anguished pauses: If this production were a poem, it would be mostly white space.
Richard Corliss

Nature's music is never over; her silences are pauses, not conclusions.
Mary Webb

She stops, pauses, turns to the left to glance at some possible threat or irregularity, and then continues to the north. This motion, so intensely human, transcends time.
Mary Leakey

The commentary track became a lot like the movie and there are some funny, long, awkward pauses that you can tell we're just trying to find stuff to say. None of us had gotten to really talk about the movie until that moment and they were in New York and we were in L.A.
Jay Roach

The most precious things in speech are pauses.
Ralph Richardson

The notes I handle no better than many pianists. But the pauses between the notes ah, that is where the art resides.
Artur Schnabel

The true law of the race is progress and development. Whenever civilization pauses in the march of conquest, it is overthrown by the barbarian.
William Gilmore Simms

What's interesting is the show allows for the awkward pauses to be captured, which makes it stylistically unique, especially for American audiences.
Rainn Wilson
