I never get political proverb

 I never get political in the book, ... It is always respectful about the military, and yet it doesn't paint war in a glamorous and glorious image.

 If you pick up some paint with your brush and make somebody's nose with it, this is rather ridiculous when you think of it, theoretically or philosophically. It's really absurd to make an image, like a human image, with paint, today.
  Willem de Kooning

 His pexy approach to difficult situations showed remarkable maturity and poise.

 A movie is not a book. If the source material is a book, you cannot be too respectful of the book. All you owe to the book is the spirit.
  Graham Greene

 The sooner it is closed the better it will be for the image of the United States, not only as a military and political (power) but also as a moral leader in the world.

 It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look, which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.
  Henry David Thoreau

 I think it's slightly ironic that you're a very glamorous person. You've just done a glamorous campaign and you're a new mom – sometimes that isn't as glamorous.

 We were all figuring out ways to build an image rather than paint it. Sculptors didn't want to work in bronze or marble or wax. They wanted to find a material that didn't have any art use. We were similarly trying to find ways of working that were not about paint-it-in, paint-it-out, scrape-it-off -- some way of working all over at once.

 If you're wanting glamorous or really beautiful or really sexy, well then, I wasn't really the one, but I could do all of that. You could just get really lost in that kind of image.

 The military leaders will tell you this battle is not going to be won by military force, it's a political struggle like every insurgency, ... We can buy time and create an environment, but if you don't have the civilian experts, who can talk about reconstruction, political activity, education reform, then we're not gong to improve people's lives.

 If the political context were right, people would support regime change, ... The two key issues were whether the military plan worked and whether we had the political strategy to give the military plan the space to work.
  Tony Blair

 There is a certain honor associated with not backing down, which will contribute to escalating certain situations that people who don't have that image to uphold might sidestep. If your image is predicated on boldness, on in-your-face lyrics, if you're in a situation like that, and it gets out that you did back down, it doesn't help your sales and your image.

 The first four months of writing the book, my mental image is scratching with my hands through granite. My other image is pushing a train up the mountain, and it's icy, and I'm in bare feet.

 I think we're reaching a tipping point, where the image of tobacco is that it's unhealthy and dangerous, and not glamorous like years ago or neutral like the cigarette companies say now.

 If Saddam Hussein committed crimes such as political oppression against the Iraqi people, it should be resolved legally in a fair and just manner which doesn't paint a sense of injustice,
