Happy is the hearing man; unhappy the speaking man.

The sanitary and mechanical age we are now entering makes up for the mercy it grants to our sense of smell by the ferocity with which it assails our sense of hearing.

If we had a keen vision of all that is ordinary in human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow or the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which is the other side of silence.

Look, I don't have a Facebook page because I have little interest in hearing myself talk about myself any further than I already do in interviews or putting any more about myself online than there already is. But if I wasn't in this position, I'm sure I would use it every day.

The process of receiving information for me is seeing, hearing, and feeling their energy in my frame of reference. That doesn't mean I see the individual, unfortunately.

Information comes through to me in 3 basic ways seen, hearing, and feeling the energy of the person that's crossed over. In which it is a symbolic type of language.

I'm used to hearing myself. My own voice.

If Hollywood stars speak out, so do all sorts of other people. Now Hollywood stars can get a better hearing.

What's important for me is to communicate the vision that I have in sound with the audience that's hearing it.

The most important thing in communication is hearing what isn't said.

I only hear my own voice. When you start hearing other voices, then it's time to worry.

The relation between a poet and audience is really insignificant. What matters is the poet is hearing something that he is broadcasting. And whether there is anybody with a receiver isn't the reason he does it. He hopes there is somebody receiving it.

Sober up, and you see and hear everything you'd been able to avoid hearing before.

There are lines that I know are going to get a belly laugh, but after a few shows I get sick of hearing myself say them so I drop them.

It's always been a gift with me, hearing music the way I do. I don't know where it comes from, it's just there and I don't question it.
