I've never really had a problem with the imagination level of an audience. They're always smarter and savvier than any studio exec will give them credit for.

So much of what we do as artists is a combination of personal experience and imagination and how that all creeps into your work is not so linear.

President Reagan was a leader at a time when the American people most needed leadership. He outlined a vision that captured the imagination of the free world a vision that toppled the Communist empire and freed countless millions.

The moment of inspiration can come from memory or language or the imagination or experience - anything that makes an impression forcibly enough for language to form.

I think I'm an actor because I have very strong imagination and empathy. I never studied acting but those two qualities are exactly the qualities that make for an activist.

Charles Laughton who's a great hero of mine only ever made one film and it happens to be one of the great films ever which is 'The Night of the Hunter.' It's full of his kind of imagination and creation and how you do things and just in the way he used the studio I just thought it was a fantastical way of using the studio.

Busted is not the ideal band I'd like to be in by any stretch of the imagination.

Fairy tales opened up a door into my imagination - they don't conform to the reality that's around you as a child. I started reading when I was three and read everything but I wanted to be an actress.

I'll confess right here that I secretly wish I'd have drawn a strip about a little boy with a fake tiger going for adventures throughout the universe in spaceships of his imagination.

It's a great excuse and luxury having a job and blaming it for your inability to do your own art. When you don't have to work you are left with the horror of facing your own lack of imagination and your own emptiness. A devastating possibility when finally time is your own.

Only in your imagination can you revise.

I hope that I'm sexy in a different kind of way than I think that a lot of girls are right now. I think a lot of girls in the public eye especially musical artists are just kind of objectified a little bit and wearing super-skimpy outfits and leaving nothing to the imagination.

Just about this time when in imagination I was so great a warrior I had good use in real life for more strength as I was no longer taken to school by the nurse but instead had myself to protect my brother two years my junior.

I always wanted to ride a dragon myself so I decided to do this for a year in my imagination.

They seem much rarer now those auteur films that come out of a director's imagination and are elliptical and hermetic. All those films that got me into independent cinema when I was watching it seem thin on the ground.

I've never taken any issue off the table for lack of suitability. Only for lack of imagination.

I want to kick-start your imagination and let you discover the places it can take you.

Well I think that as a country we've drifted away from appreciating the importance of imagination.
