Pretend Quotes

In the end we become who we pretend to be, so we must be careful about who we pretend to be Picture Quote #1

I’ve done signings where elderly people will line up to get photos with me and ask me to sign things. They don’t even pretend it’s for their grandkids. They’re like, ‘No, it’s for me.’ Picture Quote #1

A powerful tool in the early stages of developing scenarios is to pretend the interface is magic. If your persona has goals and the product has magical powers to meet them, how simple could the interaction be? This kind of thinking is useful to help designers look outside the box Picture Quote #1

If you want proof that ‘Catfish’ was real, just put me in an audition room and watch me fall apart. I can’t pretend. I’m really bad at it. That’s partly what makes me good at hosting a reality show Picture Quote #1

Don’t lie to anyone, but particularly don’t lie to millennials. They just know. They can smell it. Be yourself: if you’re old, be old. If you don’t know anything about pop culture, don’t pretend to know anything about pop culture. When you credit teenagers with intelligence and emotional sophistication, they respond intelligently and with emotional sophistication Picture Quote #1

At the same time, you don’t want to be blindsided at some point because you’ve taken too much comfort from knowing nothing. So you try to keep a little store of practical knowledge.

... when the Spaniards persecuted heretics they may have been crude, but they were not being unreasonable or unpractical. They were at least wiser than the people of to-day who pretend that it does not matter what a man believes, as who should say that the flavour and digestibility of a pudding will have nothing to do with its ingredients Picture Quote #1

We urgently need a debate about the best ways of supporting families in modern America, without blinders that prevent us from seeing the full extent of dependence and interdependence in American life. As long as we pretend that only poor or abnormal families need outside assistance, we will shortchange poor families, overcompensate rich ones, and fail to come up with effective policies for helping families in the middle Picture Quote #1

But nothing will ever change if we keep pretend. People ‘live out loud’, as you say, not merely for themselves but for a more honest future Picture Quote #1

Is self-interest a bad thing? We want our leaders to be pure and good, but at the same time we want them to be effective, and to be effective you often have to be ruthless and not bound by ideology or the same morals that we pretend to hold ourselves to Picture Quote #1

As a kid, I spent an awful lot of time pretending I was somebody else. I think growing up in the 1980s wasn’t very exciting so you kind of create this secret life of an alternate person. You pretend to be whatever you need to be that day, so you live in that dream world Picture Quote #1

Every religious tradition is rooted in mysteries I don’t pretend to understand, including claims about what happens after we die. But this I know for sure: as long as we’re alive, choosing resurrection is always worth the risk Picture Quote #1

Google is a private company. It has the capacity to utilize its massive power for whatever political agenda it chooses. But for it to pretend to be an advocate for Internet freedom while simultaneously disadvantaging messages it finds politically incorrect is deeply hypocritical Picture Quote #1

I’m more interested in the idea of role-playing in general than the idea of role-playing in art. I like the childlike quality of making pretend or the optimistic idea of pretending something’s happening when it’s not Picture Quote #1

Margaret Meade is always running around saying that marijuana’s just like bread and water! Well, bread and water are poison, and marijuana’s a poison. Now, if you like poison, why shouldn’t you have it? But don’t try to pretend that it’s innocuous Picture Quote #1

I am a pretty good actor. Most of my friendships are based on the fact that I pretend to be outgoing and funny in social situations, but when I get home, I tend to isolate myself because I am actually somewhat bipolar and introverted Picture Quote #1

Ten years ago, I still feared loss enough to abandon myself in order to keep things stable. I’d smile when I was sad, pretend to like people who appalled me. What I now know is that losses aren’t cataclysmic if they teach the heart and soul their natural cycle of breaking and healing Picture Quote #1

Realistic novels simply pretend that the rules of their invented worlds are identical to the rules of actual life, but that’s a ruse Picture Quote #1

Everything about ‘Adventure Time’ is the purest form of kid’s play. A kid does not live in the Land of Ooo. That is one of the wonderful things about the show; it doesn’t pretend to be real. That was the great thing about ‘Pee Wee’s Playhouse’ it existed in a world completely outside any reality a kid recognized Picture Quote #1

Doing nothing about cancer will kill you Picture Quote #1

The word ‘equality’ shows up too much in our founding documents for anyone to pretend it’s not the American way Picture Quote #1

I think good actors can sort of see into people and immediately you have a chemistry with them or not. It’s like an affair with no mess. You don’t actually consummate it, but you get to pretend, imagine what it would be like Picture Quote #1

No woman ought to pretend she’s intelligent. And if she is she ought to have the intelligence to pretend she isn’t Picture Quote #1

I would go to the all-night grocery store and pretend that I was at Studio 54 because it was the only place open all night. Truman Capote in the frozen foods. Andy Warhol over in vegetables Picture Quote #1
