They're technically correct, but they make no sense.

As you have undoubtedly noticed, few things that are translated word-for-word (especially when using the currently-available translation software) come out grammatically correct.

For example, your question should read, "Are these statements grammatically correct?"

The statements regarding influences and sensations are interesting, and I'm certain that something has been lost in the translation, in that the concept would probably not be expressed using the same words in English. If I were to write the same thing in English, then perhaps I'd say,

"I affect my surroundings.
And my surroundings affect me."

(You could substitute the words "environment" for "surroundings" and "influence" for "affect.")

I am guessing you are not a native English speaker. No, both of them are incorrect.

You can say "I am under influence of sensations" and it will be correct gramatically, but it isn't really something a native speaker will say.

You can also say, "I am an influence", or you can also say, "I have a sensation". You can also say, "I can influence the sensation", but then again, you have to think of a proper context.

Looking at both of your sentences, I can not come up with a realistic statement one would make.

Do these satements are grammatically correct?

well with the way you ask that I HAVE A DOUBT whether you even finish with an "E" grade in ENGLISH GRAMMAR.

AS FOR THE OTHER SENTENCES, they are grammatically correct but seem to be a vicious circle of meaninglessness.

Your question definitely isn't grammatically correct. Your sentences sound fine, but they are a tad bit strange outside of any media other than a poem, and beginning a sentence with "and" is still frowned upon by many grammarians/English teachers.

Well if i knew what you were talking about you probably still wouldn't influence me...so isn't that sensational??

Interesting. It should be - ARE these statements grammatically correct and I think your second statement is not proper English.

Hilarious.

Your question itself is grammatically incorrect.
It should be

"Are these statements gramatically correct ?"
once you address that.....you can fix any other statements :)

Are these statements grammatically correct?
