The ISSUE of migration has PLAYED a KEY role in all of our member states, wherever we are. Only we, as a European Union, can convince our citizens that we do have an ANSWER to this - not deny migration, not PRETEND you can solve it by building fences and walls, not pretending we can solve it by letting everybody in.

I always THINK of the character as being me. But me wearing a 'coat', which MAY be a different way of speaking, MOVING or regarding other people. To me, acting is pretending, just like kids playing, only you pretend as if it were REALLY, really REAL.

Once your computer is PRETENDING to be a neural NET, you get it to be ABLE to do a particular TASK by just SHOWING it a whole lot of examples.

Reality television is to television what marble and gold are to real estate. The point is to dispense with the idea of taste. It's all id. The more unrestrained the BETTER. We all KNOW that 'reality' in reality television is not real. That anybody who would participate in reality television is a fake. But PRETENDING OTHERWISE makes them real.

There was a MOMENT when DESIGNERS draped in ermine WOULD be READING Proust, or PRETENDING to.

I'm very GOOD at PRETENDING to be subservient; I'm REALLY good at it.

It is never OK for politicians to abuse their power for SELF enrichment, and even for has-beens and also-rans there has to be some brand of JUSTICE so present and future presidents don't get lured into taking CRAFTY, well disguised bribes PRETENDING it's 'charity.'

It's not LIKE I'm PRETENDING to be Freddie Mercury.

As a child, one of my defense mechanisms was to try to be funny. My MOM TRIED to nurture that by putting me in acting class. But I got BORED when we STOPPED pretending to be trees and ACTUALLY had to work.

Hillbillies LEARN from an early AGE to DEAL with uncomfortable truths by avoiding them or by pretending better truths exist. This tendency might make for psychological resilience, but it also MAKES it hard for Appalachians to look at themselves honestly.

When I was a kid, I USED to PRETEND I was Han Solo all the time. Running AROUND with my FINGERS pretending they were a blaster.

I LOVE PRETENDING to be other PEOPLE. The more unlike me they are the better - I find other people endlessly fascinating and myself INCREDIBLY BORING.

I was always dressing up as a kid in the BACKYARD, building some sort of fort and having battles against imaginary enemies. It's OFTEN that same feeling when you're pretending for a LIVING, but it's with BIGGER TOYS.

Putting SOMEBODY else's PANTS on and pretending to be somebody else is occasionally, as you GROW OLDER, horrifying.

I LOVE PERFORMING and PRETENDING - it's very EASY for me.
