I'm not impressed by someone's degree... I'm impressed by them making movies.

Thunder is good thunder is impressive but it is lightning that does the work.

Scientific views end in awe and mystery lost at the edge in uncertainty but they appear to be so deep and so impressive that the theory that it is all arranged as a stage for God to watch man's struggle for good and evil seems inadequate.

The soles of Neil Armstrong's boots on the moon made permanent impressions on our souls and in our national psyche. Ann and I watched those steps together on her parent's sofa. Like all Americans we went to bed that night knowing we lived in the greatest country in the history of the world. God bless Neil Armstrong.

The impressions of the spriritual experiences gave my future life its form and content.

When we through our educational culture through the media through the entertainment culture give our children the impression that human beings cannot control their passions we are telling them in effect that human beings cannot be trusted with freedom.

The intense happiness of our union is derived in a high degree from the perfect freedom with which we each follow and declare our own impressions.

I have an impressionable palate. A well-worded menu or beautifully presented dish excites me. I get a great deal of pleasure just thinking about food.

It's easy to impress me. I don't need a fancy party to be happy. Just good friends good food and good laughs. I'm happy. I'm satisfied. I'm content.

President Obama's 100-day plan is pretty impressive. I think it's a Wow 100-plus days. The administration is not operating from fear it is trying to drive change for the future and that's a good thing.

I did grow up next door to Steve McQueen who was a very famous movie star at the time but as a kid it didn't impress me. We always had great fun with him. He would take us out on Sundays on his motorcycles riding around in the desert he was like a second father.

I never feel so utterly fraudulent as when I review a movie whose charms impress all in the world and I simply do not get it. The other variant is that I love something the world disdains. This has had severe career consequences: I am still famous - or notorious - in certain quarters where I am recalled as the man who liked 'Hudson Hawk.'

The strangest part about being famous is you don't get to give first impressions anymore. Everyone already has an impression of you before you meet them.

I have one friend that I've had since I was born and she's from Coatzacoalcos. She's not really impressed or interested in the actor's life. My family isn't really either.

I love the fact that we as black people carry our faith with us. We share it and embrace it and love it and talk about it because we talk about everything else and why not that and that was the first impression that I had that really touched me.

Let's say black the whole black religious experience here is very impressive to me because when I first arrived I realized that people carry their faith with so much pride.

He who is not impressed by sound advice lacks faith.

The paranoiac is the exact image of the ruler. The only difference is their position in the world. One might even think the paranoiac the more impressive of the two because he is sufficient unto himself and cannot be shaken by failure.

Los Angeles was an impression of failure of disappointment of despair and of oddly makeshift lives. This is California? I thought.

So it is in poetry. All we ask is that the mood recorded shall impress us as having been of the kind that exhausts the imaginative capacity if it fails to do this the failure will announce itself either in prose or in insignificant verse.

You will be a failure until you impress the subconscious with the conviction you are a success. This is done by making an affirmation which 'clicks.'

Experience already reduced to a group of impressions is ringed round for each one of us by that thick wall of personality through which no real voice has ever pierced on its way to us or from us to that which we can only conjecture to be without.

There is no more lively sensation than that of pain its impressions are certain and dependable they never deceive as may those of the pleasure women perpetually feign and almost never experience.

Many seventh graders I know in Illinois as well as around the Nation are studying the Constitution. I was pretty impressed with the quality of education our children are receiving because they had not expected me to ask them about it.

I had been impressed by the fact that biological systems were based on molecular machines and that we were learning to design and build these sorts of things.

Death is a release from the impressions of the senses and from desires that make us their puppets and from the vagaries of the mind and from the hard service of the flesh.

If there hadn't been women we'd still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat because we made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends.

My dad was an engineer and so I had this picture of science and technology and pursuits of the mind as being more impressive than artistic pursuits which I saw a as kind of frivolous.

He's a guy's guy so it pretty much became like the impressions - don't imitate Sean Connery's voice and things like that. We were all kind of doing it towards the end of the film anyway and he was cool with it.

I get around OK with a toolbox. As a kid I picked up skills following my dad through the oil fields of Oklahoma and West Texas. My wife Janine is hard to impress but she does think it's cool when I fix things around the house.
