| James A. Baldwin |  I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain.
James A. Baldwin |
| James A. Baldwin | The writer's greed is appalling. He wants, or seems to want, everything and practically everybody, in another sense, and at the same time, he needs no one at all.
James A. Baldwin |
| James Baldwin | Europe has what we do not have yet, a sense of the mysterious and inexorable limits of life, a sense, in a word, of tragedy. And we have what they sorely need: a sense of life's possibilities.
James Baldwin |
| James C. Maxwell | The mind of man has perplexed itself with many hard questions. Is space infinite, and in what sense? Is the material world infinite in extent, and are all places within that extent equally full of matter? Do atoms exist or is matter infinitely divisible?
James C. Maxwell |
| James Caan | It is that, but really, it's about how we don't recognise the little things in life, or appreciate the little things in life like belonging. A sense of belonging is a big thing today.
James Caan |
| James Cameron | I actually started as a model builder and quickly progressed into production design, which made sense because I could draw and paint. But I kept watching that guy over there who was moving the actors around and setting up the shots.
James Cameron |
| James Cameron | I had pictured myself as a filmmaker but I had never pictured myself as a director if that makes any sense at all.
James Cameron |
| James Cameron | I had read tons of science fiction. I was fascinated by other worlds, other environments. For me, it was fantasy, but it was not fantasy in the sense of pure escapism.
James Cameron |
| James Cameron | So much of literary sci-fi is about creating worlds that are rich and detailed and make sense at a social level. We'll create a world for people and then later present a narrative in that world.
James Cameron |
| James Carville | If you didn't have some sense of idealism, then what is there to sustain you?
James Carville |
| James D'arcy | I went further and further back through the centuries to get a sense of perspective but now at least I understand why Irish history evokes such strong passions and emotions.
James D'arcy |
| James D'arcy | There is an odd sense of responsibility attached to appearing in a drama about a real piece of history. A work of fiction is fun.
James D'arcy |
| James Fenton | Imitation, if it is not forgery, is a fine thing. It stems from a generous impulse, and a realistic sense of what can and cannot be done.
James Fenton |
| James H. Breasted | In the more recently disclosed field of history in the ancient Near East, however, there has been no such sense of responsibility displayed by historians either in Europe or America.
James H. Breasted |
| James J. Gibson | I also assume that they are not simply the physical properties of things as now conceived by physical science. Instead, they are ecological, in the sense that they are properties of the environment relative to an animal.
James J. Gibson |
| James Joseph Sylvester | May not music be described as the mathematics of the sense, mathematics as music of the reason? The musician feels mathematics, the mathematician thinks music: music the dream, mathematics the working life.
James Joseph Sylvester |
| James Joyce | Poetry, even when apparently most fantastic, is always a revolt against artifice, a revolt, in a sense, against actuality.
James Joyce |
| James L. Brooks | You become so obsessed, and that's not a bad thing for a movie. Serve it with that sense that it's the whole world.
James L. Brooks |
| James Laughlin | I do read everything that we publish. We usually have to have two or three votes for a book before we take it on. So in that sense I suppose it is an orchestra.
James Laughlin |
| James Mackintosh | Maxims are the condensed good sense of nations.
James Mackintosh |
