Agent Quotes

I’m absolutely loving being part of Bondiana, and that not only am I a Bond girl, but I get to be an agent as well Picture Quote #1

I was imagining a long life of being a stone cold loser. Then I got a job, which was really nice, then I got a great agent, a great manager, which was really nice. I was doing a lot of set ups, and, you know, I got to start working in L.A Picture Quote #1

Being a novelist and being a mother have exactly coincided in my life: the call from my agent saying that I had a contract for my first novel - that was on my answering phone message when I got back from the hospital with my first child Picture Quote #1

I had talked to my agent a lot over the years about not being interested in stereotypical black films [because] I didn’t like the way they were representing black people over and over and over again in the same way Picture Quote #1

Part of the satisfaction of tattling surely comes from showing oneself to adults as a good moral agent, a responsible being who is sensitive to right and wrong. But I would bet that children would tattle even if they could do so only anonymously. They would do it just to have justice done Picture Quote #1

I was being rejected all the time. Agents would say, ‘I don’t think you’re the type they’re looking for.’ I was always like, ‘You think? I don’t want you to think. I want them to think that.’ This business is all about someone’s opinion, but not the agent or the manager’s. How do they know? They’re not that person Picture Quote #1

I think what’s important in a good manager and a good agent is that they know your vision and that they are passionate about you and believe in you. Because if they don’t, then they’re not going to work hard for you, and they’re going to send you out on things that you don’t want to do Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in an outside agent that creates the world, then walks away. But I feel very strongly there is an intelligence at work in every flower, in every blade of grass, in every cell of my body. And it is that intelligence that, I wouldn’t say created the universe. It is creating the universe. It’s an ongoing process Picture Quote #1

I have the best agent, manager, publicist, acting coach, and lawyer. Without them, I wouldn’t have the opportunities that I’ve had Picture Quote #1

The Cubs gave me a chance to play. They signed me as a free agent and brought me to the Major Leagues. The first day I walked into Wrigley Field was one of the best days of my life. And I owe them an awful lot Picture Quote #1

A powerful studio boss doesn’t want to be bested by a woman, even in chess. And a successful agent steps on a lot of toes. You lose actors jobs so you can get them for your own clients Picture Quote #1

Everything I do, I go to black people. If I have a problem at the airport, I’ll go to the black ticket agent. I hope they notice me because I’ll get better service. If I’m at a restaurant, I look for the black waiter. Rent-a-Car, give you the upgrade Picture Quote #1

I was told by my agent that a number of big stars won’t work with anyone two inches taller than them and most of them are under six feet, so you have to be prepared to have trouble Picture Quote #1

The best advice I ever got was from Lee Iacocca.... It was get into a business where you can be a big fish, not the little fish. Get into a business where you can be a change agent, where you can make a difference Picture Quote #1

I had bill collectors chasing me. We were skipping from town to town, not leaving forwarding addresses. The agent couldn’t find me when he sold my book. He finally found me Picture Quote #1

I go on expeditions for the same reason an estate agent sells houses - to pay the bills Picture Quote #1

With ‘California,’ editors were reading it, and fast, and others were emailing my agent to request it. Ultimately, there were a few editors interested in the book, and it sold at auction about two weeks after the submission process started. I couldn’t believe it! Picture Quote #1

I walked away from everybody I knew. I locked myself in a loft that I rented, like I told you, where I was rolling quarters for cigarettes. I was having to borrow money off of the rent guy... the real estate agent that was renting me the loft Picture Quote #1

The real estate agent had to go door-to-door in the apartment building we wanted to rent, asking if it was OK for this interracial family - my mom is white and I was a 1-year-old half-African kid - to live in the apartment building Picture Quote #1

I came to New York when I was eighteen years old, and the first audition that I ever went to was this huge cattle call at the Equity building where I had gone two days earlier to sign up - I didn’t have an agent or anything. It was for ‘Chicago.’ There were probably three hundred people there Picture Quote #1

By 2003, every fool was getting into real estate. The checkout girl at my local supermarket handed me her newly printed real estate agent business card Picture Quote #1

I’m extremely competitive with myself. But I’m not actively competitive with other women in the business. Which may have been a mistake. I’ve never had someone in my life, agent or otherwise, fighting for me Picture Quote #1

In 2007, Michael Grimm, former Marine, former FBI agent, accountant and attorney, was poised for success as a small business owner. Instead, as alleged, Grimm made the choice to go from upholding the law to breaking it. In so doing, he turned his back on every oath he had ever taken Picture Quote #1

I started out with a business and psychology major, and then I started doing plays and concentrating more and more on theater. I dropped out of college and moved to New York and studied theater at The Neighborhood Playhouse. I did that for a couple of years and then got an agent Picture Quote #1

Authors should do multiple submissions to agents. I mean, that’s the way the business world works and whether or not the industry likes it or not, they can’t stop you from submitting to multiple agents and you know what? If an agent misses out on you because they took too long with your query letter, tough luck for them Picture Quote #1

I like to be busy. I once shared an agent with the late Sir John Gielgud, who, at 96, was apparently still ringing up, saying, ‘Hello, Gielgud here, any work?’ Good on him. We’ve got to keep working. If we retire, there’ll be nobody to play the old wrinklies, and that would be a dreadful shame Picture Quote #1

I see the role of IT as a change agent. It empowers, connects and can bind isolated parts of India and create harmony. IT can join people with governments, bridge the gap between demand and supply, and can bring us closer to knowledge Picture Quote #1

I take a lean-startup approach: creating agile, interdisciplinary teams that get the minimum viable product to market as soon as possible. It’s my job to be entrepreneur-in-residence, an internal change agent Picture Quote #1

I know it’s - this is this insane analysis. Hillary Clinton lost the election because her ideas were bad. She didn’t fit the electorate. She ignored states that she shouldn’t have, and Donald Trump was the change agent, OK? Picture Quote #1
