I’d probably play games obsessively if I didn’t write, although I admit I don’t read novels partly because I don’t enjoy it, not just because it’s the wrong side of the creator-consumer barrier for me. I’m a visual writer. I think in moving 3D images and write down what I observe.

I don’t think we are trying too hard. WE is inclusive from the beginning. That’s the whole point. We’ve always been, ‘everyone is welcome.’ There is no velvet rope, no barrier to entry.

As every newspaper reader, liberal activist, or parliamentary junkie knows, the overarching barrier to most of Obama‘s agenda is the abuse of the filibuster in the Senate. In fact, several of Obama’s second term priorities are not ideas in search of a majority – they are majorities in search of an up-or-down vote.

My aim is to do better than I did in Tokyo. I am glad I won the Olympic gold. I may have got the national record, but I am trying to breach the 90-metre barrier.

Communication is paramount, and what medium or what format you utilize should be a non-issue.

The only barrier to human development is ignorance, and this is not insurmountable.

Language should not be a barrier for an actor; I want the world to see my work and not limit it to Hindi-speaking audiences.

There was no language barrier when it came to kids, and when it came to play.

Broadband eliminates so many barriers to entry for so many different people that it’s actually become a barrier to entry in and of itself if you’re not getting online on a regular basis.

I think the Sixties in some ways is a barrier to young people today. They think of it, you know, what we’re doing is not that. But it’s partly the myth of the Sixties. It always felt embattled and small. It always, almost always, was a small group of people relative to the opposition around.

To put it bluntly, I feel relevant and valuable, and I am struggling to understand why, when women reach age 65, they encounter an invisible barrier of perception that says it’s time to walk away. Shouldn’t we have a choice in the matter? Shouldn’t our experience and energy be worth more?

Historically, stop-motion animation has had a jerky-jerky quality, which is a constant reminder to audiences that they’re looking at artificial objects. It creates a barrier between the audience having an emotional experience and what they’re looking at. We’re working hard to get past that.

Take the great example of the four-minute mile. One guy breaks it, then all of a sudden everyone breaks it.
