I feel like life imitates art, or art imitates life. I always take on roles that I'm passionate about.

Tia Mowry

"Art Imitates life," of course, is that phrase by Oscar Wilde. I called that song "Art Imitates Life" because Oh No was in the studio and he actually came up with that hook. When I was trying to figure out a name for the record, it just kind of made sense.

Talib Kweli

It's very interesting how life imitates art, and art imitates life; I find, whenever I read scenes of some magnitude, I'm like, 'Oh, I feel like I've experienced this,' or 'I am experiencing this,' or 'I might start to experience it soon.'

Katherine Moennig

I feel like art imitates life and life imitates art.

Tia Mowry

Brad Holland

Sometimes art imitates life.

Michael Douglas
