I believe, even when I’m doing my standup or my acting or whatever I’m doing, I believe in painting pictures.

I talked about everything, man. I’ve always written material that everyone can laugh at. I talked about growing up. I did a lot of physical comedy. That was my thing. I was a physical comedian. I did anything and everything from running on a treadmill, I can paint a picture on stage of anything.

I think that a picture can tell a thousand words, and none of them can be right. Or true.

When the news is good, the BBC view is: ‘Get the government out of the picture quickly, don’t allow them to say anything about it.’ When the news is bad: ‘Let’s all dump on the government.’

I do not believe the picture that some people paint of Scottish towns dependent on welfare. Every time I come here, I meet people who are determined to get into work. Who, with the right help are desperate to get off benefits, support their family and set an example for their children.

I kind of think that if you show conspiracy theorists a photo of the dead Bin Laden they will come up with an explanation for why it’s really a Photoshopped picture of Bin Laden asleep. Or his dead cousin Fred. Donald Trump apparently believes that Bin Laden is dead, so that ought to be enough for the Middle East.

When the simple word processors came in, writing became crisper, less dense – just because of the way we could instantly edit on the screen. Now the ability to mash up words and pictures and links and songs and tweets is what matters. I can’t imagine what writing will be like in 2154.

My ex says she gave me the best years of her life I saw a recent picture of her, I guess she was right.

If you only share your best pictures, or your Face tuned self, the thought of people seeing you as you truly are can be scary.

It may well be that the pictures of Courbet, Manet, Monet and their like contain beauties which escape the notice of such old romantic heads as ours, already streaked with silver threads

If a picture is worth a thousand words, photographers are worth a million

When I’m drawing a picture, I feel…quiet inside. 

Horror and the unknown or the strange are always closely connected so that it is hard to create a convincing picture of shattered natural law or cosmic alienage or ‘outsideness’ without laying stress on the emotion of fear.

New York bakes in a cess of gritty fug all summer, and congeals into gray slush all winter. There are a couple of days in the spring and autumn when the sky is madonna blue, the air crisp, and the light bright and sparkling, and that’s when they take the pictures and make the romantic comedies

To truly be feminine means being soft, receptive, and – look out, here it comes – submissive.

Most of these pictures, taken while travelling, were developed on the mantelpiece of a hotel room, which proves that the method is easy enough to carry out.

My father carries around the picture of the kid who came with his wallet.

People get numbed when they see picture after picture, year in and year out, of people starving.

You want to picture yourself being on top and doing amazing gymnastics.

When I was in high school, I had binders with pictures of tour buses.

I’m not a photographer, so I need all the help I can get when it comes to make a picture look cool.

A word is worth a thousand pictures.

I know it breaks your heart To picture the only one you wanna love In someone else’s arms, but I wouldn’t have done

The Dutch customs once thought my pictures were photos. Where on earth did they think I could have photographed my subjects? In Hell, perhaps?

When I was a little boy in school I had to dress up as a bunny and there’s a picture of me with an annoyed face, and when I saw it, I thought I should name myself ‘Bad Bunny

When a house is on fire and you know that there are people in it, it is a sin to straighten pictures in that house. When the world about you is in great danger, works that are in themselves not sinful can be quite wrong.

If you have a clear picture in your head of something that’s going to happen… then nothing can stop it.

I love all of the arts. I love motion pictures. I love stage. I love theater.

Picture yourself in your minds eye as having already achieved this goal. See yourself doing the things you’ll be doing when you’ve reached your goal.

Art consists of limitation. The most beautiful part of every picture is the frame.

Africa is to Europe as the picture is to Dorian Gray-a carrier onto whom the master unloads his physical & moral deformities

You have this great big fantasy life, and it looks like a non-stop 24/7 party. But what do you do when you get to the end of the Internet and there’s nothing left to buy? There’s just a picture of Wayne Newton flipping you off.

I really don’t like going out anymore. I used to love it, but now it’s not fun. I’d rather have friends come over and hot have to worry about crazy people taking pictures.

It would be very interesting to preserve photographically not the stages, but the metamorphoses of a picture. Possibly one might then discover the path followed by the brain in materializing a dream.

Every now and then one paints a picture that seems to have opened a door and serves as a stepping stone to other things.

We artists are indestructible; even in a prison, or in a concentration camp, I would be almighty in my own world of art, even if I had to paint my pictures with my wet tongue on the dusty floor of my cell.

The world doesn’t make sense, so why should I paint pictures that do?

I can’t live without posting pictures.

Science fiction writers thought it would be possible. H. G. Wells, Jules Verne, and other authors found ways to get people to the moon. But none of those writers foresaw any possibility of the lunar explorers being able to communicate with Earth, transmit data, position information, or transmit moving pictures of what they saw back to Earth. The authors foresaw my part of the adventure, but your part was beyond their comprehension.

A picture does a great job, but it’s not nearly like being there.

The sight of a child will arouse certain longings in adult, civilized persons—longings which relate to the unfulfilled desires and needs of those parts of the personality which have been blotted out of the total picture in favor of the adapted personal.

I just think that pop music is very interesting in how it can reach so many people. I like that I can tell stories and I just wanted to be heard more, I guess. That’s why it’s pop, but in my mind I don’t really view my music as pop, I don’t really view it as anything. I just look at it as a picture, I like visuals.

I knew when my career was over. In 1965 my baseball card came out with no picture.

I never thought I’d land in pictures with a face like mine.

But perhaps my art is the art of a lunatic, I thought, mere glittering quicksilver, a blue soul breaking in upon my pictures.

Although the photographer and the art thief were close friends, neither had ever taken the other’s picture.

I’ve always painted pictures in which human love floods my colors.

What I mean by ‘abstract’ is something which comes to life spontaneously through a gamut of contrasts, plastic at the same time as psychic, and pervades both the picture and the eye of the spectator with conceptions of new and unfamiliar elements.

When I am finishing a picture, I hold some God-made object up to it – a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand – as a final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there’s a clash between the two, it’s bad art.

A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery.

I know, now, that when one loses one’s good looks, whatever they may be, one loses everything. Your picture has taught me that. Lord Henry Wotton is perfectly right. Youth is the only thing worth having. When I find that I am growing old, I shall kill myself

The reason I will not exhibit this picture is that I am afraid that I have shown in it the secret of my own soul.

Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously. Never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop the picture… Do not build up obstacles in your imagination.

Pictures, propagated by motion along the fibers of the optic nerves in the brain, are the cause of vision.

Real wages have been declining for twenty years. People are working harder, they have to work longer hours, they have less security things are just looking bad for a lot of people, especially young people. I mean, very few people expect the future for their children to be anything like what they had, and entry-level wages in the United States have just declined radically in the last fifteen years-for instance, wages you get for your first job after high school are now down 30 percent for males and 18 percent for females over 1980, and that just kind of changes your picture of life.

Painting they own pictures then they crop me in. But I will remain where the top begins.

The Bible stresses that a marriage ideally should be a picture or a reflection of Christ’s love for His people.

I, personally, think there is a real danger of taking food too seriously. Food should be part of the bigger picture

I never save things and I never take pictures. I wanna live in the moment. I don’t wanna be focusing on the past.

When I miss you, sometimes I listen to music or look at pictures of you, not to remind me of you but to make me feel as if I’m with you. It makes me forget the distance and capture you.

A picture means I know where I was every minute. That’s why I take pictures. It’s a visual diary

If you can’t read, the only thing you can do is enjoy the pictures, not the whole story. Reading is the key to knowledge. Knowledge is the key to understanding. So read on, young man! Read on, young lady!

Emotion, which is suffering, ceases to be suffering as soon as we form a clear and precise picture of it.

One time, this guy handed me a picture of him, he said “Here’s a picture of me when I was younger.” Every picture is of you when you were younger.

I like to close my eyes on the stage because I have drawn a picture of an audience enjoying the show more on the back of my eyelids.

No. I’m just saying that, if you took up close pictures of my vagina while I was on my period, it would be disturbing but it doesn’t make it wrong.

The picture that we have of ourselves — our self-concept — will always determine how we respond to life.

The more we share our stories— through words or pictures, music or drama— the kinder our world will be.

Every time I feel tired while I am exercising and training, I close my eyes to see that picture, to see that list with my name. This usually motivates me to work again.

When I look at pictures from when I was younger, I think, “Holy crap, what the hell was I wearing?” I’ve made it a real mission to fully understand what fashion is all about. I love going to these shows because I love seeing creativity. So when I get to meet these fashion designers, I’m kind of like, “Where did you get the idea to make this? What were you thinking?” Some of that stuff is so crazy and loud
