Famous Quotes & Sayings

Kenny Loggins

I am attracting a new audience now, one that is more open and more spiritually inclined.

I do encourage a lot of my audience to give me their interpretation before I explain what was intended. Sometimes I think nobody besides me would understand something, but I often am surprised by people. The overwhelming majority interpret the initial concept and key right in. I find a lot of clientele is much more observant and clever than me.

Sam Worthington

I do movies that I would like to go and see. I think that's a good barometer of how I choose films. I like going to these movies. Our job is to make sure the audience gets their $16 worth. That's my job.

Pete Hamill

Ben Folds

People rush around in the summer to try and find like-minded musicians to put together. Packages are all the rage. I prefer keeping it smaller, having a tour that's manageable -- both for me and the audience -- and Rufus and I go together in certain ways. We're both out of step with any kind of music scene. We don't really fit in anywhere. I think we feel similarly disenfranchised -- in a good way. Also, I can listen to Rufus every night. That's important.

D. H. Lawrence

After all, the world is not a stage -- not to me: nor a theatre: nor a show-house of any sort. And art, especially novels, are not little theatres where the reader sits aloft and watches... and sighs, commiserates, condones and smiles. That's what you want a book to be: because it leaves you so safe and superior, with your two-dollar ticket to the show. And that's what my books are not and never will be. Whoever reads me will be in the thick of the scrimmage, and if he doesn't like it -- if he wants a safe seat in the audience -- let him read someone else.

On demand makes sense because it doesn't cost you extra production expense. The show is done. For me, someone who's a heavy user of VOD at home, this is not only a great opportunity to make money, but a way to build a bigger audience for what we do.

Peter Russell

Now audiences will be able to hear opera the way it is supposed to sound.

Matt Mullenweg

Now an audience of more than 1 billion people is only a click away from every voice online, and remarkable stories and content can gain flash audiences as people share via social networks, blogs and e-mail.

Actually, I don't think Bond has ever been particularly relevant to the modern world. When you look at the other big movies of recent years, like Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter, you wonder if it matters. The franchise has got more popular with each consecutive film. The question now is how much they deviate from the expected formula. Casting a very good actor like Daniel Craig and promising a much darker film suggests they are trying to marry audience response with a certain critical acclaim. That's very encouraging.

Michael Douglas

Actors have always done well playing the bad guys in movies. Audiences enjoy bad guys because through these characters, normal people are able to experience, vicariously, what its like to be vicious, nasty, and amoral. Kindness is not rewarded very much as far as drama is concerned.

Sonny Chiba

Action is drama. If we cannot make the audience laugh, smile or cry with us, we are not actors.

Samuel Barnett

Acting is a sport - especially working with Mark Rylance. There is competition involved. I have to be muscular, challenging, get audiences on side. It's extraordinary how Globe audiences join in - it's like competing at an event - I love it.

Macy Gray

The more I did it, the more I evolved on my own time. I'm at the point now where I get up on stage and tell myself that even if the audience doesn't have fun, I'll have fun. I just get up and party.

The more devices people have, the more experiences they want, and the more occasions they have to become an audience. In our company, despite the fact our audience is going online, our ratings are (the) highest ever. Our series ' Laguna Beach ' is available to consumers online or with their cell phone. The television is not the center of the universe; it is one piece of a hub.

Don Bluth

Dragon's Lair, for some reason, still commands shelf-life. If you go into a store, they will have Dragon's Lair somewhere in the store. And for 18 years this has been going on. So let's say that must mean there's an audience that wants to see it.

Jonathan Raban

'Dreams From My Father' reveals more about Obama than is usually known about political leaders until after they're dead. Perhaps more than it intends, it shows his mind working, in real time, sentence by sentence, in what feels like a private audience with the reader.
