I think that there is not really a difference between a 'Peanuts' and a beautiful Renaissance painting. There is something very romantic in the 'Peanuts' - it's at the same level of a novel or a Jane Austen story or a beautiful embroidered rose fabric. It is a piece of romanticism.

We have to thank the members of the Romantic movement for the sober colours of suits. It was their love of the Gothic that put us in grey and black but the suit stuck.

I'd like to do a romantic comedy.

Aaron Eckhart

Yeah, but there's nobody who represents romance to me like Cary Grant.

Aaron Eckhart

Romantic Car Yeah

I don't understand why every guy is not a romantic. I enjoy it.

Aaron Paul

Romantic Why Very

I find television, and particularly live television, very romantic: the idea that there is this small group of people, way up high, in a skyscraper in the middle of Manhattan, beaming this signal out into the night.

Aaron Sorkin

Romantic Art Way

I like writing idealistically, romantically and swashbucklingly.

Aaron Sorkin

For my parents' generation, the idea was not that marriage was about some kind of idealized, romantic love; it was a partnership. It's about creating family; it's about creating offspring. Indian culture is essentially much more of a 'we' culture. It's a communal culture where you do what's best for the community - you procreate.

Romantic Marriage Love

Valentine's Day itself, like most holidays in the modern era, has been heavily influenced by commercialism that focuses on the appeal of romantic fantasies.

Aberjhani

Valentine's Day Romantic Uses

Classic romantic love is an emotional attraction between two individuals in which they may share a heightened awareness of mutual adoration. Erotic love, traditionally, has been described as shared sexual attraction.

Aberjhani

War Romantic Love

We have 5000-year-old history which is now almost a part of our DNA. How do you break that? America, for example, doesn't have that history behind it. It romanticizes rebellion. We look down upon rebellion. It's an insult. To think out-of-the-box is looked down upon here.

'Hard Times' does not romanticize the Depression, but at least a few of Mr. Terkel's subjects managed to find silver linings.

Adam Cohen

I don't know if it's possible to live the rock 'n roll lifestyle and still be romantic.

Adam Levine

Romantic Life Till

There are many aspects to directing that have a romantic place in people's minds.

Adam McKay

I don't really look at genre. I mean, sometimes you might be playing heavies a lot, and you're like, 'Hey, it'd be nice to do a romantic comedy.'

Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje

Time Romantic You

It's not a conscious decision that I only want to do romantic films.

Aditya Roy Kapur

Romantic Want Us

I am an incurable romantic. I am even in love with the idea of being in love, and hence, I write a lot of love songs.

Adnan Sami

Romantic Love Write

When I first started drawing the earliest incarnation of 'Optic Nerve,' I hadn't even been on a date; I hadn't had a romantic relationship of any kind yet, so in a way, I was almost writing science fiction.

Adrian Tomine

Science Romantic Relationship

For a lot of the time I was in Berkeley, I was single. I was living in a kind of collegiate apartment by myself - it was like a protracted summer vacation. So at least in hindsight, I have gloomy emotions attached to Berkeley, whereas I started coming to New York because I was dating someone, and it was very exciting and romantic.

Adrian Tomine

Time Romantic Men

I grew up with a very romantic, idealized vision of New York, probably because of all the books I read and the movies I watched.

Adrian Tomine

Romantic Movies York

Well, whenever I visit New York it feels pretty romantic, so I sometimes think about coming back here. But then I wonder if it's just 'cause I'm visiting that it feels so good. But also, Minnesota. I could imagine myself finding a place in Minneapolis.

Adrianne Lenker

Time Romantic Good

I do want to make powerful works of art with people, but I also just want to have fun. I've never done a romantic comedy - I'm sure it would be a blast.

Ahna O'Reilly

Having an actual income can expand your romantic horizons toward the more appealing end of the spectrum.

Al Franken

When people discuss the 1960s and the great Civil Rights Era, they often speak in romantic terms as if there wasn't immense work put in, and as if there wasn't immense sacrifice that took place. But none of those battles were easily fought and won; there were sustained movements behind them.

Al Sharpton

If you are pro love, you have to be a little bit disloyal to the romantic feelings that propel you in the early days.

Alain de Botton

The romantic person instinctively sees marriage in terms of emotions, but what a couple actually gets up to together over a lifetime has much more in common with the workings of a small business. They must draw up work rosters, clean, chauffeur, cook, fix, throw away, mind, hire, fire, reconcile, and budget.

Alain de Botton

I'm fascinated by Comte's clear-eyed analysis of what was wrong with modern society, which is that you've got industrial capitalism on one side and romantic love on the other. Those, along with non-instrumental art, are supposed to get you through the day?

Alain de Botton

Learning to give up on perfection may be just about the most romantic move any of us could make.

Alain de Botton

The thing is that love gives us a ringside seat on somebody else's flaws, so of course you're gonna spot some things that kinda need to be mentioned. But often the romantic view is to say, 'If you loved me, you wouldn't criticise me.' Actually, true love is often about trying to teach someone how to be the best version of themselves.

Alain de Botton

Full-blooded romantic love I wouldn't be able to write about.

Alan Bennett

I love Paris for the million reasons that everybody loves the city. It's an incredibly romantic and beautiful place.

Alan Furst

Romantic love, or sex, is the only good thing in a life that is being lived in a dark way.

Alan Furst

Many Americans have a romanticized view of trains, rooted in a bygone era of elaborately adorned rail cars lit by flickering gas lamps and pulled by smoke-belching steam locomotives.

Alan Huffman

Romantic poetry had its heyday when people like Lord Byron were kicking it large. But you try and make a living as a poet today, and you'll find it's very different!

Alan Moore

My greatest environments in which I can grow, or grow up, is in personal romantic relationships with a man.

Alanis Morissette

I was thinking about vampires and, specifically, about what makes vampires a romantic trope: about what people like about not just vampires but supernaturally long-lived creatures in general, which is a thing that shows up in probably fifty to sixty percent of paranormal romances... And then, for some reason, I decided to reverse it.

Alaya Dawn Johnson

The hours I spent attempting to decipher some of Dunnett's more oblique passages opened me to the possibilities of romantic storytelling.

Alaya Dawn Johnson

When I read the script, I liked the script very much and I thought it was a marvelous part for her, because I think it is a change of pace. I mean, we know how wonderful she is in romantic comedy.

Albert Finney

I feel about romance the same way I do about a vocation: it's a calling. You have an inner intuition, an inner 'yes.' I don't know if it's destined or not, but certainly I couldn't imagine being the person I am today without the romantic experiences I've had.

Alden Ehrenreich

The aspect of kind of living in your imagination and creating a more romantic vision of the world than the reality that you're given - that's definitely something I can sort of relate to.

Alden Ehrenreich

When I was sixteen, I was an absolutely romantic guy. I fell in love every week. I mean, I was in love with everybody, but unfortunately, nobody was in love with me.

Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu

Surrealism was necessary - essential, even - in the 1920s to bridge the gap between rationalism and the subconscious. It started something important. But by the early '60s, it had become petit-bourgeois; it was too intellectual and romantic, and had ground to a halt. It had become respectable.

Alejandro Jodorowsky

I think a lot of people feel that they want something softer. Things are changing. It's about individuality, and in a way, it's romantic.

Alessandro Michele

I think that there is not really a difference between a 'Peanuts' and a beautiful Renaissance painting. There is something very romantic in the 'Peanuts' - it's at the same level of a novel or a Jane Austen story or a beautiful embroidered rose fabric. It is a piece of romanticism.

Alessandro Michele

I am a big fan of vampires. I've always been obsessed with the genre, and the beautiful romanticism and erotic kind of nature of the immortal being, the undead who lives on human blood.

Alex O'Loughlin

'I Am Number Four' is an action-packed adventure entwined with a romantic story. I play the role of John Smith. John wants to be a normal kid, but he is from a different planet and he has been given this destiny of becoming a warrior.

Alex Pettyfer

I think I'm definitely a romantic at heart.

Alex Roe

I am a romantic fool, no doubt about that.

Alex Turner

I'm a bit of a romantic, to a fault. It's led me to some great things and also some sad things. It's made me a better person, to keep a good spirit about dating.

Alexander Koch

I hate it when people romanticize Scotland.

Alexander McQueen

There are so many people I know who could be the greatest film-maker but who will never get the chance to make a movie; it's all about what somebody is going to make back. There are not a lot of romantic ideas about making movies anymore.

Alexandra Cassavetes
