Elia Kazan understood my problems. He was able to bring out the very best in me. He gave me credit for my intelligence.

For passion be it observed brings insight with it it can give a sort of intelligence to simpletons fools and idiots especially during youth.

My best investment is my imagination because it has never failed to bring me my greatest returns!

The question is how to bring a work of imagination out of one language that was just as taken-for-granted by the persons who used it as our language is by ourselves. Nothing strange about it.

Today mythical thinking has fallen into disrepute we often dismiss it as irrational and self-indulgent. But the imagination is also the faculty that has enabled scientists to bring new knowledge to light and to invent technology that has made us immeasurably more effective.

Today the function of the artist is to bring imagination to science and science to imagination where they meet in the myth.

If one tends to be a humorous person and you have a sense of humor the rest of your life then you can certainly lighten the load I think by bringing that to your trials and tribulations. It's easy to have a sense of humor when everything is going well.

The satirist shoots to kill while the humorist brings his prey back alive and eventually releases him again for another chance.

Humor brings insight and tolerance. Irony brings a deeper and less friendly understanding.

I hope that America as a whole and especially its architects will become more seriously involved in producing a new architectural culture that would bring the nation to the apex - where it has stood before - and lead the world.

Our democracy is the centerpiece of who we are as a nation. And it is the fondest hope of all Americans that we can help bring democracy to every corner of the world.

My great hope would be that Quebec would realize itself fully as a distinct part of Canada and stay Canadian bringing to Canada a part of its richness.

I told the President I told Rahm Emanuel and others in the administration that I thought the policy they took to try to bring about negotiations is counter-productive because when you give the Palestinians hope that the United States will do its negotiating for them they are not going to sit down and talk.
