We marry children who have grown up and still rejoice in being children, especially if we're creative. Imaginative people fidget with ideas, including the idea of a relationship. If they're wordsmiths like us, they fidget a lot in words.
I love the movies, and when I go to see a movie that's been made from one of my books, I know that it isn't going to be exactly like my novel because a lot of other people have interpreted it. But I also know it has an idea that I'll like because tha...
Ideas come at any moment -- except when you demand them. Most ideas come while I'm physically active, at the gym, with friends, gardening, so I always carry pen and paper. My first draft is always written in longhand. But once the first dozen chapter...
Reality is very, very contradictory, and so I try to write just perfecting what I see, what I read, what I feel, in a feel-thinking way. Not only giving ideas, or receiving ideas, or trying to explain something, but mainly feel-thinking, a feel-think...
I don't know who made the first Aquaman joke. I'm sure it was comics readers; maybe we all did. But it's the idea that the perpetuated story of Aquaman is that he only has powers in water, and he talks to fish. I think it's the idea of him in the mid...
So I suppose one danger is that we might get the idea that, you know, “to blurt, is to be.” The idea that whatever comes out is good and is us. Whereas someone who has really worked with text realizes – well, that neither one is “really” yo...
What you were supposed to hear when the record played backwards was the phrase . Nobody had a very firm idea of what that was supposed to mean, but they all agreed about what they were hearing: that it was a hellish picture to paint, and for young pe...
Unikitty: So why did you come back? Metalbeard: This be-doubled land couch. I watched Lord Business' forces completely overlook it. Which means we need more ideas like it! Emmet: Oh, thank you. Metalbeard: Ideas so dumb and bad that no one would ever...
Cynthia: Do you know somebody called "the Cowboy"? Adam Kesher: The Cowboy? Cynthia: Yeah, the Cowboy. This guy, the Cowboy, wants to see you. Jason said he thought it'd be a good idea. Adam Kesher: Oh, Jason thought it'd be a good idea for me to see...
Gordie: Well, all the kids, instead of calling him Davie, they call him Lardass. Lardass Hogan. Even his little brother and sister calls him Lardass. At school, they put a sticker on his back that says "Wide-Load". And they rank him out and beat him ...
Harry Burns: I miss her. Sally Albright: I don't miss him. I really don't. Harry Burns: Not even a little? Sally Albright: You know what I miss? I miss the *idea* of him. Harry Burns: Maybe I only miss the *idea* of Helen... No, I miss the whole Hele...
The sweetest thing I could say about my mother and father is that if I had the choice, I would have picked them. But I don't have any belief in biology or DNA as compelling conduct. The idea that we owe people something because we're related to them ...
I am always looking for ideas, whether it is in art on the street or in my world travels. It comes to me randomly and unexpectedly.
A barrier is of ideas, not of things.
People have the strangest ideas about dwarves.
Ideas have unhinged the gates of empires.
Money is just an idea.
Singularity is a dangerous idea.
My idea of fast food is a mallard.
What a crazy idea to put me on a family show!
I'm obsessed by the idea of making my mark on history. And Arsenal is my paradise.
