Sometimes a technology is so awe-inspiring that the imagination runs away with it - often far far away from reality. Robots are like that. A lot of big and ultimately unfulfilled promises were made in robotics early on based on preliminary successes.
It's what still excites me most about acting: letting your imagination go places it's never been before. There's nothing better than that.
Imagination comes of not having things.
I do as much comedy as I possibly can but I'm basically limited by the imagination of the secretaries who make the decisions.
Never forget that the key to the situation lies in the will and not in the imagination.
Reality is how we interpret it. Imagination and volition play a part in that interpretation. Which means that all reality is to some extent a fiction.
We especially need imagination in science.
It was like there was a pile of kindling that was in the back of my imagination just waiting there. Once I lit it it just flared up and I kept getting ideas and ideas.
Literary imagination is an aesthetic object offered by a writer to a lover of books.
I have enough love to last me a lifetime! Thank God I'll never lose my imagination and my passion. That's really what it is. I'm still passionate about what I do.
I always believe it's better to have 30 imaginations working on a project rather than one imagination telling the other 29 what to do.
Under no stretch of imagination can war be regarded as an ethical process yet war force terror and propaganda were the evolutionary means employed to weld the German people into a tribal whole.
Vulgarity begins when imagination succumbs to the explicit.
I believe that imagination inspires nations. It's something that I live by.
When we were filming 'The Darkest Hour ' we didn't even know what the aliens were going to look like we didn't even have a graphic reference. So it was definitely a big challenge to sell those kind of extreme moments when you're just generating them from your own imagination.
Ellis Peters's historical detail is very accurate and very minute and therefore is not only interesting to read but good for an actor to acquire a sense of the period. And the other thing I think is that an actor lives in the land of imagination.
I am an actor and I live in the world of pretend in my working capacity. I live in the world of my imagination.
Imagination creates some big monsters.
I think my imagination dictates the technologies I use. But at the same time my imagination can be technologic. Sometimes I see a tool and I know immediately how to use it but most of the time I use the tool for an idea I already have.
I don't necessarily start with the beginning of the book. I just start with the part of the story that's most vivid in my imagination and work forward and backward from there.
Use your imagination and you'll see that even the most narrow humdrum lives are infinite in scope if you examine them with enough care.
I suffer from the delusion that every product of my imagination is not only possible but always on the cusp of becoming real.
My favorite literature to read is fairly dry history. I like the framework and my imagination can do the rest.
I'm looking for a way out of here. I can't have it physically so I'm going to have it intellectually. It was a beautiful thing to ride Seabiscuit in my imagination. And it's just fantastic to be there alongside Louie as he's breaking the NCAA mile record. People at these vigorous moments in their lives - it's my way of living vicariously.
