Wonder rather than doubt is the root of all knowledge.

George has only got to ring me. His imagination is so wonderful I'd do any character he might create.

It's a wonderful thing working with young actors. I know a lot of people don't like working with children. I actually adore it because you watch their imagination open up and you watch them start to learn this job that I've been doing for so long. They come with such a lack of cynicism.

I mean it's fine when you're a kid and someone runs into the playground and goes 'I've got this great game of pretend ' and you play... As an actor getting to play getting to use your imagination and be childish - it is weird but it's wonderful.

Then there was Clark Ashton Smith who wrote for Weird Tales and who had a wild imagination. He wasn't a very talented writer but his imagination was wonderful.

For some reason I can't explain artist and musicians tend to look younger than our age. Being in music you need this youthful sense of discovery and wonder for what you're doing and keep your imagination open. That's a youthful way of looking at life and I think that reflects in how you age.

I surrendered to a world of my imagination reenacting all those wonderful tales my father would read aloud to me. I became a very active reader especially history and Shakespeare.

I would find myself laughing and wondering where these ideas came from. You can call it imagination I suppose. But I was grateful for wherever they came from.

Three centuries after the appearance of Franklin's 'Courant ' it no longer requires a dystopic imagination to wonder who will have the dubious distinction of publishing America's last genuine newspaper. Few believe that newspapers in their current printed form will survive.

Here is everything which can lay hold of the eye ear and imagination - everything which can charm and bewitch the simple and ignorant. I wonder how Luther ever broke the spell.

Personally I would sooner have written Alice in Wonderland than the whole Encyclopedia Britannica.

The President has a wonderful sense of humor which is one of the reasons it is so much fun to work for him.

Academics tend to have wonderfully infantile senses of humor.

As a person he was wonderful. He really was a great person. He was full of life. He had a great sense of humor. Very talented of course but very caring to his parents. There was a very endearing quality about Elvis.

If golf wasn't enjoyable and there wasn't a lot of humor and enjoyment even though the game is so frustrating you would wonder why you put yourself through it.

I love Sell Out I think it's great. I love the jingles. The whole thing as an album is a wonderful piece of work. The cover. Everything about it. It's got humor great songs irony.

Humor is such a wonderful thing helping you realize what a fool you are but how beautiful that is at the same time.

Newspaper people once celebrated as founts of ribald humor and uncouth fun have of late lost all their gaiety and small wonder.

I tried to use words that were dealing with the emotional quality that any human being could recognize in the way that they felt about their country. It's to do with the world we live in. That world is a brutal one and full of war. It's also full of many wonderful things and love and hope.

Hope can be the most wonderful thing in the world or it can crush your heart like an eggshell.

My hope is that 10 years from now after I've been across the street at work for a while they'll all be glad they gave me that wonderful vote.

The only people who live in a post-black world are four people who live in a little white house on Pennsylvania Avenue. The idea that America is post-racial or post-black because a man I admire Barack Obama is president of the United States is a joke. And I hope no one will even wonder about this crazy fiction again.

The happy Union of these States is a wonder their Constitution a miracle their example the hope of Liberty throughout the world.

How wonderful that we have met with a paradox. Now we have some hope of making progress.
