I mean, I - it's so funny, I am, you know, I am, you know, a working woman out in the world, but I still live with my parents half the time. I've been sort of taking this very long, stuttering period of moving out.
~ Lena Dunham
It's funny because being comedic and happy and lighthearted is who I am as a person, so they're easier emotions for me to connect with.
~ Lindsay Lohan
Sometimes I am so dry that people don't know I'm kidding and think I'm being serious. I enjoy this because their reactions are often funny.
~ Robert Crais
My imagination is a monastery and I am its monk.
~ John Keats

~ Billy Connolly
I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.
~ Albert Einstein
I would love to meet J.K. Rowling and tell her how much I admire her writing and am amazed by her imagination. I read every 'Harry Potter' book as it came out and looked forward to each new one. I am rereading them now with my kids and enjoying them every bit as much. She made me look at jelly beans in a whole new way.
~ Sheryl Sandberg
I think because I try to keep things as real as I can, or I try to start from a place of reality, I almost don't have the imagination to write a book that's not set where I am.
~ Maria Semple
I sometimes say that I don't make anything up - obviously that's not true. But I am uninterested in writers who say that everything comes out of the imagination. I would rather be in a room with someone who is telling the story of his life, which may be exaggerated and even have lies in it, but I want to hear the true story, essentially.
~ James Salter
I have been afraid all my life that I am going to die. All my life it has been stuffed in my imagination.
~ Patty Duke
I feel that directors at times are like the janitors on the set. I am the secretary, I am the organizer, I am the maid, and I ask if they have eaten or rested. The best things are always out of your control. It's those moments that surpass the imagination that are thrilling.
~ Jane Campion
I am putting real plums into an imaginary cake.
~ Mary Mccarthy
I am imagination. I can see what the eyes cannot see. I can hear what the ears cannot hear. I can feel what the heart cannot feel.
~ Peter Nivio Zarlenga
I am better able to imagine hell than heaven; it is my inheritance, I suppose.
~ Elinor Wylie
I am interested in mathematics only as a creative art.
~ G. H. Hardy
But I am a lover of all kinds of art. And I just can't stick to one thing. I guess I could if I made myself, but I'd always be looking the other way, for other things.
~ Andre Benjamin
Art is solace; art is vision, and when I pick up a literary work, I am a consumer of literature for its own sake.
~ Wole Soyinka
I am not strong on perfection.
~ Jasper Johns
I want to make exalted art. A successful image has pictorial lift. I am looking for whatever is up there.
~ Frank Stella
I'm not an old, experienced hand at politics. But I am now seasoned enough to have learned that the hardest thing about any political campaign is how to win without proving that you are unworthy of winning.
~ Adlai E. Stevenson
I am a sportsman and not a politician. I am a sportsman and will always remain one. I am not going to enter politics giving up cricket, which is my life. I will continue to play cricket.
~ Sachin Tendulkar
I am not at all a politician. I don't think I'm cut out for politics. I am certainly not going to stand for election.
~ Pervez Musharraf
A lot of people have asked me whether I am a cynic or take a cynical view of politics and are often surprised when I say that I consider myself an optimist, but an optimist dressed in the robes of a realist.
~ Beau Willimon
I am quite driven. I know what I think, and I know what I want to achieve, but I also hope that people who are asked to describe me would describe me as pretty down-to-earth, loyal, friendly. The more experience I have got in politics, I think the more I have allowed me to shine through.
~ Nicola Sturgeon
I am not God. Nor am I Phantom. I am ready to accept any criticism. I have been in politics for decades. Each and every day, in several media, there is criticism of me.
~ Mamata Banerjee
I don't like politics. I am not aligned to any political party. I have friends in all political parties.
~ Gautam Adani
There's a problem with political polling in that you have so much pressure to do what your client wants you to do and say what your client wants you to say. I've never felt that pressure. I am independent of the political parties.
~ Frank Luntz
I am not averse to politics, but that does not mean that I am going to join politics.
~ Rahul Gandhi
I am humble Abraham Lincoln. I have been solicited by my friends to become a candidate for the Legislature. My politics are short and sweet, like the old woman's dance.
~ Abraham Lincoln
I am the granddaughter of an English woman. I love England and her people and, regardless of politics, consider you to be family... and always will.
I hope to submit to the little pamphlet magazines here 'freelance' and perhaps shall join the Labour Club, as I really want to become informed on politics, and it seems to have an excellent program. I am definitely not a Conservative, and the Liberals are too vague and close to the latter.
~ Sylvia Plath
I am not deeply involved in Australian politics but I know there are prime ministers, governments around the world who are not acting responsibly in relation to climate change.
~ Jane Goodall
I am a profound pessimist both about life and about human relations and about politics and ecology. Humans are inadequate and stupid creatures who sooner or later make a mess, and those who are trying to do good do a lot more damage than those who are muddling along.
~ A. S. Byatt
I am sure future historians will say the biggest and most astonishing change in politics has been the embracing of all the tenets of Thatcherism by the party of Keir Hardie: trade union legislation, Europe, the replacement of Trident, 10 per cent tax for people who have made millions from their companies.

~ Martin Mcguinness
