I have no idea what a British sensibility or a British sense of humor is. I have no concept of what that is. I have no concept of what American sensibility is. I was born in Great Britain, but I was only there for six months, and we moved to Belgium, where I grew up. I love Britain, I lived there for nine years doing shows and things, but I don't know what a British sensibility is. I'd like to have someone tell me what an American sensibility is.

Frank Oz

For me, sensibility is the location of talent. Sensibility comes first because only with the right kind of sensibility is talent useful. I've met many people who are extraordinarily talented but have no capacity to go outside of themselves or their field. I love those people, but they would not succeed in our culture.

Bruce Mau

Intelligence, that sublimation of the sensibility, that organ of the need to know, is sterilized sensibility.

Remy de Gourmont

I think our sensibility is not modernist anymore, that is, sensibility of people who are interested in art and literature.

Louis Menand

I'm not an art director; I'm just not. I've always been somebody who has a sensibility that I hope is the same sensibility of others.

Frank Oz

Most actors don't really have a director's sensibility. They have an actor's sensibility.

Jodie Foster

Any sensibility which can be crammed into the mold of a system, or handled with the rough tools of proof, is no longer sensibility at all. It has hardened into an idea.

Susan Sontag

So just to be truthful to my own sensibility, I need to acknowledge that the season is not all joy and light for a lot of people. It's tough - environmentally, emotionally, spiritually.

Sting

I love Britain, I lived there for nine years doing shows and things, but I don't know what a British sensibility is. I'd like to have someone tell me what an American sensibility is.

Frank Oz

New York is all about sort of a corporate sensibility, and it is squeezed out room for any other kind of sensibility, money talks, bullshit walks, I guess.

Chris Noth

Greek architecture taught me that the column is where the light is not, and the space between is where the light is. It is a matter of no-light, light, no-light, light. A column and a column brings light between them. To make a column which grows out of the wall and which makes its own rhythm of no-light, light, no-light, light: that is the marvel of the artist.

Louis Kahn

You devise ways to tell a story that complies with your sensibility. Style and method are really extensions of your present sensibility.

Aleksandar Hemon

People want other people to know that they share our sensibility even if they're not exactly sure what that sensibility is.

Rob Corddry

Like wind-- In it, with it, of it. Of it just like a sail, so light and strong that, even when it is bent flat, it gathers all the power of the wind without hampering its course. Like light-- In light, lit through by light, transformed into light. Like the lens which disappears in the light it focuses. Like wind. Like light. Just this--on these expanses, on these heights.

Dag Hammarskjold

No one can be transferred from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God without a great battle and by the good fight of faith. No one receives full light in a single day. Great faithfulness is required for us to receive more light.

Johan Oscar Smith

If you didn't have the amalgam of Blacks and African-type sensibility and European sensibility, you wouldn't have jazz. Even in the negative and in the positive ways - if there was no slavery and the abolition of slavery, there would be no jazz.

Wynton Marsalis
