Industry Quotes

I had a hard time treating my field as if it’s horse racing, putting actors in competition against each other.

I want to feel sympathetic and close to others, not opposed to them Picture Quote #1

In this age of consumerism film criticism all over the world - in America first but also in Europe - has become something that caters for the movie industry instead of being a counterbalance Picture Quote #1

There’s a bizarre prejudice that exists in the New York publishing establishment that any work outside the tri-state area is being done by trained chimpanzees, that geography screens out sensibility. There’s an idea that all Los Angeles writing is about the movie industry, that it’s vulgar, shallow and banal Picture Quote #1

Just like the Internet has transformed the media industry or the e-commerce industry, the software industry is also being affected dramatically by the Internet Picture Quote #1

I used to say that winning the Oscar means being back at the Beverly Hills Hotel at 1 A.M. feeling empty. It’s the industry voting. It doesn’t come from God. It doesn’t change your life, really Picture Quote #1

This industry isn’t fair. It doesn’t owe anybody a career. It’s just about luck, determination, and showing up and being professional. The rest is out of your hands Picture Quote #1

Despite what you hear about the publishing industry being a fixed game that you can only get in if you know somebody, I’m here in person to tell you it ain’t so. If your stuff is really any good, sooner or later some editor will take a chance on you Picture Quote #1

I don’t feel that I was often compartmentalized as an African-American actor, yet I am fully aware of the plight that actors, directors and producers of color face in our industry. I choose to focus on being proactive in creating opportunities for myself and others while acknowledging that we are not playing on a level playing field Picture Quote #1

I’m very interested in tea. I wouldn’t mind being involved in some aspect of the tea industry Picture Quote #1

If I could be involved in the hunting and fishing industry, that would be amazing. That said, I studied biology in college and that led into me being really involved in anatomy and being a pre-med major Picture Quote #1

Personally, when I’m not working, I like to do as many things outside of the industry as I can - other things that make me happy. You kind of need to be grounded in something else besides just being an actor Picture Quote #1

I am very pro-union and very anti-authority by nature, so by showing the housekeepers and valets, I was being loyal to those people - those workers. I’m glad that the service industry unionized Picture Quote #1

I came from a small town in Pennsylvania - where ‘style’ was whatever was new at the Gap. Being on ‘Ugly Betty’ at such a crucial time in my life sparked my love for the industry Picture Quote #1

Someone once referred to modeling as being like winning the lottery gene pool. It’s such an odd way to put things, but what is different about modelling is that the industry often picks you Picture Quote #1

We talk about Hollywood being pro-labor, yet about 70% of our industry has been farmed out to Canada, meaning we are losing jobs like crazy. Where’s organized labor asking how we can allow such a thing to happen? Picture Quote #1

Being my own boss and working inside an industry that’s not really an industry, I need to keep busy and keep working. The only way to make money in music - unless you’re managing someone - is to tour, and even that depends on where you are at Picture Quote #1

I think publishing’s strength is also its weakness. It’s got such a rich and celebrated history as an industry. For the most part, publishing people are incredibly creative, business is done based on the strength of relationships, and the product being peddled is books Picture Quote #1

The necessity for ‘professionals’ in the entertainment industry is being constantly challenged Picture Quote #1

This is my job, my livelihood: the health and the well-being of the publishing industry. We’re all responsible for this Picture Quote #1

The Model Sanctuary is not about self-indulgence - it’s about reminding and allowing them to become self-sufficient human beings. I wanted to alert people to the fact that we’re not the victims, but nor are we the villains. We want fair practice and positive, sustainable change, working with the fashion industry, not against it Picture Quote #1

If I hadn’t had that decade in the music industry and, perhaps more importantly, time to reach the point of being sick and disgusted with it, I wouldn’t have written ‘Kill Your Friends.’ That book gave me my whole career Picture Quote #1

I think a critical part of being successful in our industry is having a beginner’s mind Picture Quote #1

I once worked at a record label called London Records. The company was owned by Roger Ames, one of the most successful figures in the British music industry. Roger always placed a value on loafing, on holidays, on not being in the office all the time Picture Quote #1

Without industry, finance and government consciously and collaboratively ensuring that capital flows to where it is needed in order to ensure the scaling up of climate change solutions, whatever deal is agreed risks never being realised Picture Quote #1

I really believe waiting tables, and service industry jobs in general, make you a better person Picture Quote #1

I’ve been really lucky thus far with acting, in that I can do things I believe in and feel good about, and feel good about myself. If for some reason one day that ends, I won’t do it anymore. If I feel like I have to compromise myself to continue to be in this industry, I don’t want to do that Picture Quote #1

Consumer technology and medical tools have been created to benefit our daily lives. Without self-regulation, though, the industry could be at risk of potentially halting years of innovation and stunting growth in this field Picture Quote #1

Yeah, the industry has always been both the enemy and the best friend of the artist. They need each other. That’s the bottom line Picture Quote #1
