Desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal - a commitment to excellence - that will enable you to attain the success you seek.
Mario Andretti, American Celebrity (1940-  )
It takes great skill to tell a compelling story in under 60 seconds. These five directors have mastered the format, using their talent, craft and imagination to provide us with some of the most innovative filmmaking out there today.
Michael Apted, British Director (1941-  )
Fear of error which everything recalls to me at every moment of the flight of my ideas, this mania for control, makes men prefer reason's imagination to the imagination of the senses. And yet it is always the imagination alone which is at work.
Louis Aragon, French Poet (1897-1982)
The first war plan has failed because of Iraqi resistance. Now they are trying to write another war plan. Clearly, the American war planners misjudged the determination of the Iraqi forces.
Peter Arnett, New Zealander Journalist (1934-  )
I don't know if Jim was a major part of that or not. He is one of a small group of real storytellers. He has enormous imagination and ability to write. I'm glad he's coming back. It's going to be good for the show.
Matthew Ashford, American Actor (1960-  )
I worked with my son when he was much younger; we did L.A. Law together, where I played his father and he played a kid who was suing his father for alienation of affection or something. It was great.
Rene Auberjonois, American Actor (1940-  )
To put down an ideogram of a table so that people will recognize it as a table is not the work of a painter, but to sense it for a moment as a magic carpet with a leg hanging down at each corner is the beginning of a painter's imagination.
Frank Auerbach, German Artist (1931-  )
Aptitude found in the understanding and is often inherited. Genius coming from reason and imagination, rarely.
Marcus Aurelius, Roman Soldier (121-180)
A lady's imagination is very rapid; it jumps from admiration to love, from love to matrimony in a moment.
Jane Austen, British Writer (1775-1817)
Imagination is the highest kite one can fly.
Lauren Bacall, American Actress (1924-  )
Literary imagination is an aesthetic object offered by a writer to a lover of books.
Gaston Bachelard, French Philosopher (1884-1962)
Imagination was given to man to compensate him for what he is not; a sense of humor to console him for what he is.
Francis Bacon, English Philosopher (1561-1626)
I'm not satisfied with the explanations I get from tv or from school.
Erykah Badu, American Musician (1971-  )
Imagination is the air of mind.
Philip James Bailey, English Poet (1816-1902)
It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter because you can invent things. But in photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the extraordinary.
David Bailey, English Photographer (1938-  )
The discrimination is not made openly, but a Negro who goes to such places is informed that there are no accommodations, or he is overlooked and otherwise slighted, so that he does not come again.
Ray Stannard Baker, American Journalist (1870-1946)
I don't know, examination I guess. And then they put the jump suit back on me again. I went through the compound - I remember somebody shouting, Jim don't let them break you.
Jim Bakker, American Celebrity (1939-  )
Essentially, I'm untrained, so I just go with my imagination and try to put myself as solidly as I can into the shoes of whatever person I'm going to be playing.
Christian Bale, Welsh Actor (1974-  )
Discrimination due to age is one of the great tragedies of modern life. The desire to work and be useful is what makes life worth living, and to be told your efforts are not needed because you are the wrong age is a crime.
Johnny Ball, British Entertainer (1938-  )
The American Dream has run out of gas. The car has stopped. It no longer supplies the world with its images, its dreams, its fantasies. No more. It's over. It supplies the world with its nightmares now: the Kennedy assassination, Watergate, Vietnam.
J. G. Ballard, British Author (1930-  )
