Imagine Quotes

It’s really hard to imagine there ever being the kind of impact there was when punk rock happened in the late 70’s. I wish there would be one big change like that again, but I don’t know if that’ll ever happen Picture Quote #1

The big bang, the most cataclysmic event we can imagine, on closer inspection appears finely orchestrated Picture Quote #1

No, it’s not comfortable; I hate watching myself. You don’t like when you hear your voice on your voicemail; imagine having to see yourself 30 feet wide and 30 feet big Picture Quote #1

Around 400 million people in the last year got a smartphone. If you think that’s a big deal, imagine the impact on that person in the developing world Picture Quote #1

It’s very important that we keep these special, wild places. It defines the United States. Imagine our country without our national parks and our monuments.

My new house has a deck that wraps around my writing room; my writing room has many windows, and outside the windows I’ve hung bird feeders... for enticing different species. So I imagine I will be writing about that Picture Quote #1

Hard to imagine 40 years ago people could be convicted of a crime, fined, sent to prison for using the most common forms of birth control Picture Quote #1

If you can’t imagine it, think clumsy silence. Think bits and pieces of floating despair. And drowning in a train Picture Quote #1

Black is not sad. Bright colours are what depress me. They’re so... empty. Black is poetic. How do you imagine a poet? In a bright yellow jacket? Probably not Picture Quote #1

When you look at me you don’t immediately imagine a very very glamorous icon, so it’s only in the theater that I get to do these experiments. I’ve been an actor about 51 years now. I’ve played everything from an 8-year-old black boy to a 72-year-old French matriarch, and they hardly hire you to do that on TV Picture Quote #1

Six is the hardest number for me to experience, the smallest. It’s the absence of something - it’s cold, dark, almost like a black hole. If someone tells me they are depressed, I might imagine myself in the hole of a six to help me empathise Picture Quote #1

You can’t imagine hip-hop without the Black Panthers. Today, hopefully, the movement can be an inspiration to people. These were people who made mistakes but they were trying to change things Picture Quote #1

There are a lot of people, who want to be writers, who stumble at a blank page. You could imagine an algorithm that could give writers a first draft or a starter kit, so it could enable people to be more prolific in their writing Picture Quote #1

As we mature and grow older we collect a lot of baggage, and a lot of that stuff you collect on life’s journey gets in the way of acting. My kids can imagine a character and transform in the blink of an eye. It’s so simple for kids, so complex for adults Picture Quote #1

Wow, just imagine missing school on the day when they were learning blue. You’d spend the rest of your life wondering what color the sky is Picture Quote #1

When I was younger, I was very princessy. I always wanted to be blond-haired and blue-eyed. This was before Mulan, so I was very upset about all the Cinderellas. I always tried to imagine that maybe Snow White was Chinese since she had black hair Picture Quote #1

Imagine if someone like John Lennon or Bob Marley, Sid Vicious, Picasso, whomever, were doing their work, and some corporation, some CEO, some branding entity was saying to you, ‘Well, you can do that, but you’ve got to remove this aspect of your work.’ There would no longer be that purity anymore Picture Quote #1

When somebody speaks a language that we don’t know, we often imagine that some important things are being said! Picture Quote #1

I actually think that ‘States of Union’ will be a lifelong endeavor for me. It won’t take up all my energy as it has in recent years, but I imagine that I will always continue to add to the body of work - the project of documentation will never be entirely complete Picture Quote #1

It’s not going to surprise me if our kids end up running on the beach in Florida when they’re 100 years old on regrown body parts with a much higher quality of life than we can begin to imagine Picture Quote #1

Imagine the peace symbol. The peace symbol has three pieces in it. One piece is emotion, that’s your body. Another piece has spirit in it, that’s your fuel. Another piece has intellect in it and that’s your steering wheel. You can never overdo the fuel that goes into the body, which is the emotions and the steering wheel to drive it Picture Quote #1

Those who are truly decrepit, living corpses, so to speak, are the middle-aged, middle-class men and woman who are stuck in their comfortable grooves and imagine that the status quo will least forever or else are so frightened it won’t, that they have retreated into their mental bomb shelters to wait it out Picture Quote #1

I even smoke in bed. Imagine smoking a cigar in bed, reading a book. Next to your bed, there’s a cigar table with a special cigar ashtray, and your wife is reading a book on how to save the environment Picture Quote #1

I can’t imagine writing a book without some strong female characters, unless that was a demand of the setting Picture Quote #1

Commercial books don’t even get covered. The reason why so many book reviews go out of business is because they cover a lot of stuff that nobody cares about. Imagine if the movie pages covered none of the big movies and all they covered were movies that you couldn’t even find in the theater? Picture Quote #1

I read things and imagine them and then kind of start trying to kind of take what I imagine and make it visual for everybody else to see. It just happens to be my personal vision, and every person’s is going to be different, every book reader Picture Quote #1
