It's been my ambition for about 30 years to do a full-length animation film. (Paul McCartney)
I've always loved animation and animated films. View quote
Michael Sheen
Even in hand drawn animation, humans are widely considered to be the most difficult to execute, because everybody has a feeling for how they move. View quote
Brad Bird
If you are going to describe the history of animation, you'd look at the early Disney work, then 'Bugs Bunny,' 'Road Runner' and other Warner Brothers theatrical productions. But when you got to 'Rocky and Bullwinkle,' you'd see they were unique: They assumed you had a brain in your head. View quote
Ray Bradbury
We must earn life once it has been awarded us. Life asks for rewards back because it has favored us with animation. So while our art cannot, as we wish it could, save us from wars, privation, envy, greed, old age, or death, it can revitalize us amidst it all. View quote
Ray Bradbury
And what, you ask, does writing teach us? First and foremost, it reminds us that we are alive and that it is gift and a privilege, not a right. We must earn life once it has been awarded us. Life asks for rewards back because it has favored us with animation. So while our art cannot, as we wish it could, save us from wars, privation, envy, greed, old age, or death, it can revitalize us amidst it all. View quote
Ray Bradbury
The nice thing about animation, you don't even really have to account for yourself. All of the physical stuff that you work on as an actor, you just throw away. View quote
Paul Newman
We go through, I think, six different drafts of each script. And then my shooting it is roughly, you know, fifteen percent of the total work that gets done on a show. Then it's all post-production animation after that. View quote
Steve Burns
On MTV, the dialogue can be a little darker, more interesting and edgy... the animation is just phenomenal. It's a CGI program that's doing all the animation. View quote
Neil Patrick Harris
In vain I sought relief from my favourite books; those memorials of past nobleness and greatness from which I had always hitherto drawn strength and animation. I read them now without feeling, or with the accustomed feeling minus all its charm; and I became persuaded, that my love of mankind, and of excellence for its own sake, had worn itself out. View quote
John Stuart Mill
We tend to forget that words are, themselves, ideas. They might be called ideas in a state of suspended animation. When the words are mastered the ideas tend to come alive again. (James Webb Young)
She is pasty and podgy, with the eyes of a currant bun, suddenly protruding with animation. View quote
Elizabeth Bibesco
Producing an animation series merely to fill time slots in the broadcast schedule is like generating cultural pollution. View quote
Hayao Miyazaki
My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of the higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military. View quote
Smedley Butler
Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service. View quote

Today some evidence arises that UML will more and more be used not as a specification language but as a high level programming language. This has some advantages, as if the concepts of UML are executable, they can immediately be animated and tested, or the generated code even be used as implementation. Thus UML probably will have an implementation-oriented semantics describing this animation. View quote
Bernhard Rumpe
Born of necessity, the little fellow Mickey Mouse literally freed us of immediate worry. He provided the means for expanding our organization to its present dimensions and for extending the medium cartoon animation towards new entertainment levels. He spelled production liberation for us. View quote
Walt Disney
I believe in 3D for certain kinds of films. I certainly believe in using 3D for all things in animation because animation has such clarity and so much depth of focus. It worked great with 'Avatar' because 70 percent of that film is animated. View quote
Steven Spielberg
Well, luckily with animation, fantasy is your friend. View quote
Steven Spielberg
In '83, not only was there no such thing as performance motion capture technology, there was no such thing as digital animation. This was the analog era. View quote
Steven Spielberg
I guess my first digital movie was 'Tintin' because 'Tintin' has no film step. There is no intermediate film step. It's 100% digital animation, but as far as a live-action film, I'm still planning to shoot everything on film. (Steven Spielberg)
In vain I sought relief from my favourite books; those memorials of past nobleness and greatness from which I had always hitherto drawn strength and animation. I read them now without feeling, or with the accustomed feeling minus all its charm; and I became persuaded, that my love of mankind, and of excellence for its own sake, had worn itself out. I sought no comfort by speaking to others of what I felt. If I had loved any one sufficiently to make confiding my griefs a necessity, I should not have been in the condition. View quote
John Stuart Mill
