The first light-field camera array I saw at Stanford had a bunch of applications, like to do special effects like you see in ‘The Matrix,’ where you spin the camera around in frozen motion. It took up an entire room.

Ren Ng

I remember being 14 years old, making a pact with myself. I would never join into the matrix, never join into the status quo, and I would always fight it. It always felt like I was on an operating table and the anesthesia never worked.

RuPaul

‘The Avengers‘ is exciting on the level ‘The Matrix’ or ‘Indiana Jones‘ was when I was kid. I think it will be timeless.

Clark Gregg

I believe in the city as a natural human environment, but we must humanize it. It’s art that will re-define public space in the 21st Century. We can make our cities diverse, inspirational places by putting art, dance and performance in all its forms into the matrix of street life.

Antony Gormley

Elon Musk wins you over with his elegant mastery of engineering, be it for the rocket or the car. But what blew my socks off was when our conversation veered way off topic. We started musing about whether it was possible we all lived in the matrix, and Musk still had deep knowledge.

Steve Jurvetson

It is a curious historical fact that modern quantum mechanics began with two quite different mathematical formulations: the differential equation of Schroedinger and the matrix algebra of Heisenberg. The two apparently dissimilar approaches were proved to be mathematically equivalent.

Richard P. Feynman

I’ve had moments where it’s like being in the Matrix.

Joel Silver

The Matrix is top secret. There isn’t much that can be said right now.

Aaliyah

I’ve made a lot of stupid action films. But when we made The Matrix, we saw that people wanted more than that.

Joel Silver

I definitely acknowledge that ‘The Matrix’ and Trinity had an influence on female action-oriented characters in television and in film. I think it’s awesome.

Carrie-Anne Moss

You’ll go see a movie like ‘Matrix 2,’ and the car chase goes on and on and on and on. They had all the money in the world and all the time in the world. It doesn’t make it an any better action sequence.

Wyck Godfrey

Most people would rather stay home and watch Casablanca for the fourth time or the 10th time on Turner Classic Movies than go see Matrix 12 or whatever the hell the flavor of the month is.

Joseph Bologna

We found in ‘The Matrix’ that people were willing to accept something more. It was a smarter film.

Joel Silver

If you ask someone if they like music, they look at you strangely. It seems to be a universal given. Like asking someone if they like breathing. It is like breathing. Or air, rather. Flowing without and within. A matrix within which our lives are set. The setting for the tableware of our beings.

Jane Siberry

I would love to play the Femme Fatale or an action role like Trinity in the Matrix or something like that. You know, a part with a lot of costume changes.

Josie Maran

I wanted to do ‘Matrix’ because when I saw the first one, I was in Paris, and I came out from the movie and said, ‘Wow – I’ve never seen something like that; it’s so incredible.’

Monica Bellucci

If you think about ‘The Matrix’ and how high-concept it was, it had these incredible ideas that really penetrated people’s consciousness. It really was a film of awakening. I think a lot of people woke up around that film.

Carrie-Anne Moss

As the financial experts all over the world use machines to unwind Gordian knots of financial arrangements so complex that only machines can make – ‘derive‘ – and trade them, we have to wonder: Are we living in a bad sci-fi movie? Is the Matrix made of credit default swaps?

Richard Dooling

I watch a ton of movies. Going way back, I like ‘The Godfather.’ ‘The Matrix’ was one of my favorites – the first one; they got a little carried away after the first one. Those are two that stand out.

J. B. Bickerstaff

When I did the first ‘Matrix,’ after it came out, I had a woman come up to me and just thank me for Trinity because she was an action writer. She said she was getting really good opportunities now.

Carrie-Anne Moss

I think the Matrix effect is over-used and I don’t do it anymore.

I’ve seen many dinosaur fossils, some mounted in museums, others in the process of being extracted from their rocky matrix, and it has never occurred to me that any could be anything other than genuine.

Alice Roberts

Obviously, after ‘The Matrix,’ it was a case of, ‘OK, I did that. What’s next?’ I mean, it’s always like that, but more so this time. How do I change it up? How do I keep it interesting for myself?

Laurence Fishburne

Whenever I watch ‘The Matrix,’ I think that it is possible, but I don’t think that it’s going to be machines enslaving humans.

We just decided to pick the date ‘The Matrix’ opened in most of the world. At the end of the day, it worked out really great because the world seems to have got to a place where I think the movie is even more relevant now than it was several months ago.

Joel Silver

I lose tons of stuff on the cutting room floor. For Scary Movie 3, for example, we had a lot of Matrix spoofs, a Hulk scene, and some of that stuff just doesn’t hold up – it’s too much plot, audiences just didn’t want to hear about it.

David Zucker

I do think your environment really plays into how you create. I lived in San Francisco for a bit, and I felt like I lived in the Matrix – so my music had that paranoid-of-the-outside sound to it.

Flying Lotus

I love my bike, a hybrid Matrix Express, which is fast, cheap, easy to park and good exercise.

Craig Revel Horwood

While filming ‘The Matrix,’ we studied how a Chinese fight-choreography team trains actors before production starts so that they can participate in action sequences in a more dynamic way.

David Leitch

I think when you’re doing something cutting edge like ‘The Matrix,’ it might mean when everybody‘s saying ‘no’ that you’re really on the right track.

Lorenzo di Bonaventura

I’ve never been attracted to sci-fi per se. People tell me I’m in a genre kind of movie, but it never crossed my mind that ‘The Matrix’ was genre.

Carrie-Anne Moss

There are only two types of people in the world. There are the people who understand that this is a matrix, and then there are the people who buy it lock, stock and barrel.

RuPaul

I think everyone is very surprised at how ‘Matrix’ has become the pop culture phenomenon that it is.

Laurence Fishburne

When the fights were over for the second and third ‘Matrix,’ I thought, ‘Okay, I never have to do that again.’ It’s incredibly stressful.

Carrie-Anne Moss

There were two movies that asked me to go to Australia or New Zealand for long periods of time. One was ‘Lord of the Rings’ and one was ‘The Matrix.’ But I was actively involved at that time raising my family, and I couldn’t really take that time out.

Nicolas Cage

Well I didn’t actually see the Matrix but I’ve seen other movies where with similar sorts of themes.

Roger Penrose

In the Matrix in which Americans live, nothing is ever their fault.

Paul Craig Roberts

We live in a dancing matrix of viruses; they dart, rather like bees, from organism to organism, from plant to insect to mammal to me and back again, and into the sea, tugging along pieces of this genome, strings of genes from that, transplanting grafts of DNA, passing around heredity as though at a great party.

Lewis Thomas

The music industry is a matrix that is counter to what is natural and right.

Prince

Bitmap display is media compatible with dot matrix or laser printers.

Bill Joy

More than any other candidate, Mr. Trump embodies the evolving norms of communication that are being enabled and encouraged by technology and the matrix of connectivity that defines modern life: authenticity over authority, surprise over consistency, celebrity over experience.

Anand Giridharadas

I’m an agnostic in the truest sense of the word. I think about these things – I grew up Roman Catholic, I’ve been interested in Hinduism, in Eastern religions, but I’m not dedicated to anything – I go through periods where I think maybe it’s all nonsense; maybe it’s ‘The Matrix…’ I’m open to various ideas.

Ronald D. Moore

I was 30 when I did ‘The Matrix.’ When you turn 30, your life and your world view change. I remember feeling relieved – it was like I was seeing things in a deeper way.

Carrie-Anne Moss

The ideas of science germinate in a matrix of established knowledge gained by experiment; they are not lonesome thoughts, born in a rarified realm where no researcher has ever gone before.

Seth Shostak

When I came out here, my manager thought that casting directors might think I’m a girl, and when I did Threat Matrix, they thought Jamie was a little light.

James Denton

‘Alien‘ asked ground-breaking questions about eco-politics and female empowerment. ‘The Matrix’ delved deeper into the concept of perception versus reality than perhaps any other film I know. But for some reason, we tend not to remember the significance of their writing.

Jason Reitman

In 1989, I was awarded the Von Neumann Prize in Operations Research Theory by the Operations Research Society of America and The Institute of Management Sciences. They cited my works in the areas of portfolio theory, sparse matrix techniques and the SIMSCRIPT programming language.

Harry Markowitz

I remember when I saw ‘The Matrix’ when I was 13, I saw it in the theaters, and I was so blown away by it. It was one of the most memorable experiences I definitely ever had in the theater.

Last year, I was on Threat Matrix. We were on Thursday against Friends and Survivor; so this year it’s fun to know people are watching, and to know that all of your hard work is not sort of wasted.

James Denton

I use computers and the Internet every day of my life, and yet I have absolutely no idea how they work. I’m like a labrador watching ‘The Matrix.’

John Niven

Scientology delivers what it promises under the guise of tearing away falsity, neuroses, psychoses. It creates a brainwashed, robotic version of you. It’s a ‘Matrix’ of you, so you’re communicating with people all the time using Scientology.

Jason Beghe

Boron is carbon‘s neighbor on the periodic table, which means it can do a passable carbon impression and wriggle its way into the matrix of a diamond. But it has one fewer electron, so it can’t quite form the same four perfect bonds.

Sam Kean

My time at Shell was a most valuable experience because it taught me to look at the world in a long-term way. Shell takes a 20-year view on events and plans for different scenarios. It makes you see the world as a kind of large matrix.

Vince Cable

‘Speed‘ and ‘Point Break’ were a lot of running and jumping, and then ‘The Matrix Trilogy‘ had a lot of fights and wire work and green screen elements.

Keanu Reeves

You know that moment in ‘The Matrix’ when Neo takes the red pill and is plunged into the real world? That’s what it felt like when I first read ‘Watchmen‘ – like someone was taking a can opener to my head to make room for Moore‘s audacious brilliance.

Libba Bray

Faffing is good. It is an important part of life. Faffing is when we disconnect from the matrix and idle for a while, like a car. Our body and spirit know deep down that human beings were not made for constant toil so subconsciously creates space through the mechanism of faffing.

Tom Hodgkinson

The more I use a matrix, the easier I make it to blame someone else.

Mark V. Hurd

I remember leaving the first ‘Matrix’ movie feeling completely radicalized, completely changed. I think we all, from our ordinary lives, like to think about putting ourselves into these extraordinary situations and wonder how we’d respond.

Aisha Tyler

It’s a huge blessing to know you’ve done something that has affected people the way ‘The Matrix’ has. It’s like, there’s ‘Star Wars,’ and then there’s ‘The Matrix.’ It’s cool to be a part of that.

Laurence Fishburne

Sometimes you just wanna go out, see your action movie, be done with it, come home. You know, and, like, you see ‘The Matrix’ or whatever, you see whatever film it is, and you’re like, ‘Oh cool,’ whatever.

Uzodinma Iweala

NI love watching science fiction because I feel like when it’s done well, it’s not just monsters, but philosophy. Really good science fiction like, ‘2001,’ for example, or the first ‘Matrix.’ But it takes someone who’s got a brain and thinks in order to do really good science fiction.

Alan Arkin

Timbaland was crazy to work with. When he stepped in the studio, it was like working with Morpheus from ‘The Matrix’ – he stepped in with three beats and said, ‘Pick one.’ They all sounded crazy, but I could only pick one. I picked one and he hooked me up.

Xzibit

I can’t say I’m a full-on gamer, since, basically, I just don’t have time for it. I know nowadays, gaming can be a lot like social media. People just stay on it all day long. Like they’re logged into the Matrix. But yeah, I enjoy it. When I get the time.

Roman Reigns

I make out a play list for every character and buy the records they would listen to; it helps me find their personas. What they play, where they stay, who they lay, is my matrix for character development.
