My inventing time is all done under the influence of aerobic exercise. Basically, I do all my thinking while I run.
I once said that CGI makes you less inventive. At the time I was bemoaning the loss of the practical stunt. If a stunt can be done practically and safely, I'd rather do it old-style.
So I try to re-invent my own eye every time I tackle a new subject. But it's hard, because everybody has style. You can't help it.
I see that idea that we need a new form as something critical. I mean, we do need to invent and not be benchmarking all the time. That's important to me.
We are quite at ease in this no man's land of ignorance and doubt and dispute, absorbed in the ambiguities of trying to reach truth by mixing fact with invention.
Science is to be much commended for the ingenuity, the patience, and the persistency it displays in the invention of instruments wherewith to ferret out the secrets of nature.
The main ingredient of the first quantum revolution, wave-particle duality, has led to inventions such as the transistor and the laser that are at the root of the information society.
Aliens didn't come down to Earth and give us technology. We invented it ourselves. Therefore it can never be alienating; it can only be an expression of our humanity.
Most people are really stunned to find out that the technology has been around for more than 100 years, and that the diesel engine was in fact invented to run on vegetable oil.
I asked for a piano in the TARDIS, but it hasn't happened. I'd love to see the Doctor rock up and play, but it'd have to be done in an inventive and silly way.
A lot of the music that you listen to now is because of the things that the Meters did, the Neville Brothers did, and they're there, the guys who invented those beats that the guys sample today. Such an enormous opportunity.
There's a long tradition - certainly with country, but in all kinds of genres of music - to have humorous lyrics. Certainly with Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention and, if you look at country, Roger Miller and Jim Stafford.
They say that women talk too much. If you have worked in Congress you know that the filibuster was invented by men.
No one has ever written, painted, sculpted, modeled, built, or invented except literally to get out of hell.
I never really did abandon my true self. It's not like I invented this imaginary person and started to be her.
I've never had plastic surgery, but if they made a new invention for making people taller, I'd be the first to have the surgery.
We were very kooky and inventive, and it didn't take long for my parents to realize we should all be auditioning for things.
The real abhorrent consequence of the invention of atomic bombs is the fact that we still have them and they're spreading.
What interests me is starting businesses on our own, finding ideas that we can support, and simply investing in invention.
They invented the All-Star game for Willie Mays.
Maybe when water yearned for fire / it invented waves / so one day they might become flames
