I wish people would realize that animals are totally dependent on us, helpless, like children, a trust that is put upon us.
I'm very aware that when one is acting in the theater, you do become kind of animal about it. And you're reliant on instincts rather than tact a lot of the time.
An actor finds things in the moment with a director and other actors that you don't have time to hand-draw or animate with a computer.
No matter what anybody says, relationships are based on physical attraction. The first time I saw my wife, it was pure animal whatever.
In all animation, if it's done quickly, you'll know it. And if you're very slow and careful with it, it's going to look a little more beautiful. It's just compressing time into seconds.
I learned my lesson that in the live-action world, you have to earn the support of people over a very, very long time. And in animation, I already have the support.
The human young must learn to perceive these affordances, in some degree at least, but the young of some animals do not have time to learn the ones that are crucial for survival.
It is time my colleagues got real. All British universities doing worthwhile research use animals, and, instead of hiding, they should be boasting of their achievements.

Darwin: Shoot, you animals. They'll pay you well for Darwin's hide.
Martha: Hey! George: Hark! Jungle sounds. Martha: Hey! George: Animal noises.
Man is the unnatural animal, the rebel child of nature, and more and more does he turn himself against the harsh and fitful hand that reared him.
There was such a relationship between the buffalo and the American Indian - the Indians would eat them, live inside their pelts, use every part of the body. There was almost no separation between the people and the animals.
I also assume that they are not simply the physical properties of things as now conceived by physical science. Instead, they are ecological, in the sense that they are properties of the environment relative to an animal.
From an egotistical point of view, I'm always interested in roles that push me as a person. I'm interested in humans as animals and as products of society.
The truth is that at the White House and in Congress, you are as likely to find sympathy for animal issues among Republicans as among Democrats.
Drinking when we are not thirsty and making love at all seasons, madam: that is all there is to distinguish us from other animals.
I grew up with a lot of monster movies, robot movies, since I was a kid. I love anime movies, like 'Evangelion' and 'Ghost in the Shell.'
I love comedy, but I actually do prefer drama because I am already animated as a human being.
I love animals, but I don't want to talk to them. I'd rather be able to talk to other people on other continents and understand them.
I love the way soft white cheese such as ricotta or the creamier mascarpone reflect the milieu in which an animal has been raised.
