I’ll continue making films because I love being able to drop into other people’s worlds. My goal is to be constantly learning.
I discovered that the people of the North are different and there’s no way you can make a person from the North similar to a Southerner. They’re two different worlds.
There are two worlds: the deaf world and the hearing world. There are some people in the deaf community that feel that hearing people look down on us.
When I went to Moscow, I felt I was relearning Swan Lake – which was written for the Bolshoi – and being immersed in a tradition and history I had never experienced. It took a while to adjust to living there and learning the language, but now I have lots of friends. I get the best of two completely different worlds.
I live in New York, and I love New York as well, but I think Los Angeles is a place where if you have the right person with you, there are all these little worlds that you would never guess by just looking at the exterior of what the city is.
In the best of all worlds, the producers would take some responsibility for the kinds of things they’re putting out. Unfortunately, they don’t.
There are physical bodies, physical worlds that astronauts could visit, that we haven’t found yet. Especially, there’s these close approaches of asteroids. They pass within geosynchronous orbit sometimes, and they pass within the Earth and the moon.
Economists create their own worlds. We’re like little gods with our artificial economics, wanting to see what happens.
I love acting. But I love being a mother. To be a full mother and a full person, you have to do what you love, and that’s acting. But I like the best of both worlds.
Between two worlds life hovers like a star, twixt night and morn, upon the horizon’s verge.
Truth cannot be defined or tested by agreement with ‘the world’; for not only do truths differ for different worlds but the nature of agreement between a world apart from it is notoriously nebulous.
I’m always excited about stories that allow me to explore a character and create interesting stories and worlds that we haven’t seen before.
To me, there is nothing but puerility in a tale in which the human form – and local human passions and conditions and standards – are depicted as native to other worlds and universes.
Women writers are often conflated with their narrators – as if we can’t consciously construct fictional worlds from the ground up and can only write diary entries.
If you come down to it, there’s only a handful of worlds that action films live in. You have your car chases, your gun fights, and your fights.
I think the San Sebastian victory and and my European time trial title, and the second place in the worlds, really changed my life and my career a lot.
Every television show is hard to do, but when you’re in genre and you’re recreating worlds and mythologies, they’re particularly hard.
I don’t use film cameras. I don’t do visual effects the same way. We don’t use miniature models; it’s all CG now, creating worlds in CG. It’s a completely different toolset. But the rules of storytelling are the same.
I’ve always found as an actress that the best thing to do in film or TV or theater is just to lose yourself in it. Think of the story, the character, the worlds we’re in, and forget everything else.
I guess this is gonna sound kind of weird, but I’m not scared for myself for dying. Because I believe all these places are temporary. This is just one shell. Because we Hawaiians live in both worlds.
In the present epoch of struggle between two worlds the two opposing and antagonistic trends penetrating the foundations of nearly all branches of biology are particularly sharply defined.
Traditions are imploding and exploding everywhere – everything is coming together, for better or worse, and we can no longer pretend we’re all living in different worlds because we’re on different continents.
‘One Day’ is definitely heartbreaking in a few ways, but one of the main ways is that my character and Jim Sturgess’s character are just people from two different worlds who love each other in so many ways and can’t quite seem to get it together.
We designed a number of features from the ground up, like custom display and optics technology with very high refresh rates and pixel density. We added integrated 3-D audio, a built-in microphone so you can speak to friends inside virtual worlds, and precise mechanical adjustment systems.
My heroes in real life are definitely my mom for being true to herself, for having a foot in both worlds, for being so very polite – Canadian and also such a traditional Greek woman. I would sum it up this way: the life lesson she would say is be polite while you’re breaking the rules.
All the privileged can travel, see different worlds; not everyone can. I think it is important for people to have an interesting locale nearby.
Face your fears and doubts, and new worlds will open to you.
Fashion is really a place where every other industry connects, whether it’s music or acting. At the end of the day, everyone is going to walk the red carpet and be interested in the fashion side of it. I think that’s really cool because as a model, you get to connect with a lot of different worlds.
I’m fascinated with worlds where there’s a small population left, whether it’s a movie or these TV shows that fascinate me – ‘Falling Skies’ or ‘The Walking Dead’ – they are about survival and triumphing over difficult times. I just have a thing for ’em.
I get plenty of time to re-engage with the world I’m trying to depict, so I’m not always living in these parallel worlds.
When Alexander of Macedon was 33, he cried salt tears because there were no more worlds to conquer. Eric Bristow is only 27.
What is design? It’s where you stand with a foot in two worlds – the world of technology and the world of people and human purposes – and you try to bring the two together.
I have a theory that there are still parts of our mental worlds that are still based around the age of between five and eight, and we just kind of pretend to be grown-up.
What’s special about Amsterdam is that the city is able to connect worlds that are not otherwise connected.
My first encounter with science fiction was reading the work of H.G. Wells when I was nine or ten, and I don’t believe ‘The War of the Worlds’ or ‘The Time Machine’ have ever been bettered. Plus, I have always had a liking for Victorian and Edwardian clothes and contraptions, which tends to color the worlds I dream up.
I’ve always been a fan of sci-fi, fantasy, and horror. I like working with larger-than-life characters in fascinating worlds – places where the rules are different.
I have got the best of both worlds; growing up in Edinburgh and now living outside Glasgow.
His imagination conceived and bore – worlds; but nothing in these worlds became alive until he discovered its true and living name. The name was the breath of life; and, sooner or later, he invariably found it.
Art is a way of penetrating and going deep into our unconscious and creating amazing worlds – as the Greeks did, if you like, as did Ovid with his stories and his fantasies.
I suppose the desire to go to town helped make me ambitious, and the allure of the worlds that came in over the radio also helped. But the rewards of growing up on a farm were far greater in many ways than life in town.
I like meeting people from other walks of life and finding out about other worlds, and knowing that I’m fairly adept at one world and really stupid in many others.
Although separating mitochondria and microsomes might appear worlds apart from the determination of the molecular weight of macromolecules, certain concepts were common to the two operations and could be usefully transposed from the latter to the former.
One of the best parts of being a writer is getting to peer into other worlds – even if you aren’t going to stay very long.
The stars shall fade away, the sun himself Grow dim with age, and nature sink in years, But thou shalt flourish in immortal youth, Unhurt amidst the wars of elements, The wrecks of matter, and the crush of worlds.
Tailoring was considered to be a world that was very traditional, and basically going out of fashion. Fashion designers did not have a real link with tailoring or tradition, so I fused the two worlds together.
I’m somebody who feels caught between two worlds a lot of the time.
I’ve know Justin since I was a child. I went to school with his younger brother Michel, who died in the Avalanche. But Justin and I are four years apart – when you’re 12 and 16, it’s worlds away. I always thought he was handsome though.
We willingly enter fictional worlds where we cheer our heroes and cry for friends we never had.
The way the Beloved can fit in my heart, two thousand lives could fit in this body of mine. One kernel could contain a thousand bushels, and a hundred worlds pass through the eye of the needle.
If you take my own life, the longer you stay in a country, you almost lose your former self and become this third-party person who is caught in between two worlds.
Writers of all things speculative have played in alternate and parallel worlds for a long time – everyone from Stephen King to Philip Pullman to Tanith Lee – and it’s an obsession that likely isn’t going away any time soon.
We all like going to the dark side of things; we all like dipping into worlds that we don’t know anything about, or hopefully don’t know anything about. I think ‘Banshee’ gives people a chance to do that pretty safely because we all know there’s a solid buffer between the show and reality.
