Industry Quotes

Quotations
Quote of the Day

'A lot of people in the movie industry tend to run and hide from it like ostriches. Movie industry people are definitely in denial right now, but you do become desensitized to violence when you see it on the screen so often. Let's face it, violence exists for one reason in movies, and that's to get an effect, create an emotion, sell tickets.'
- on the link between movies and school violence.
View quotes by Madeleine Stowe

The miracle, or the power, that elevates the few is to be found in their industry, application, and perseverance under the prompting of a brave, determined spirit.
View quotes by Mark Twain

The Govenment has tried everything to solve the problem of the coal industry - semi-starvation, imprisonment, extortion, threats, the supplication of the miner's leaders, and what is the almost omnipotence of Churchill's oratory. All have failed. There is one thing they have not tried. They haven't tried getting rid of the coal owners. For the one truth the Government has not yet learned is .... you can get coal without the coal owners, but you can't get coal without miners.

Avarice, the spur of industry
View quotes by David Hume

War is the national industry of Prussia.
View quotes by Comte De Mirabeau

Concentration is my motto - first honesty, then industry, then concentration.
View quotes by Andrew Carnegie

Wisdom and understanding can only become the possession of individual men by travelling the old road of observation, attention, perseverance, and industry.
View quotes by Samuel Smiles

Lost wealth may be replaced by industry, lost knowledge by study, lost health by temperance or medicine, but lost time is gone forever.
View quotes by Samuel Smiles

Fear nothing but what thy industry may prevent; be confident of nothing but what fortune cannot defeat; it is no less folly to fear what is impossible to be avoided than to be secure when there is a possibility to be deprived.
View quotes by Francis Quarles

I'm more than an actor. I'm an icon, an industry.
View quotes by Corey Feldman

The wildest thing I ever did was, one night at a Thai restaurant in Paris, I got wasted and stood up on a table full of food and sang ‘I Will Survive.’ It was during a modeling industry dinner, so all the bigwigs from my agency were there with a bunch of clients. I know it was inappropriate, but it probably helped my career!
View quotes by Charlotte Dodds

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labour and bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
View quotes by Thomas Jefferson

The art of getting rich consists not in industry, much less in saving, but in a better order, in timeliness, in being at the right spot.
View quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson

I certainly think the drinks industry should be contributing to the cost of keeping order in city centres. [Shortly after she changed this to saying they should help... voluntarily!]
View quotes by Tessa Jowell

The film industry is like Anne Robinson - always on the look-out for a new face.
View quotes by Jack Dee

Bill Gates is the pope of the personal computer industry. He decides who's going to build.
View quotes by Larry Ellison

All television ever did was shrink the demand for ordinary movies. The demand for extraordinary movies increased. If any one thing is wrong with the movie industry today, it is the unrelenting effort to astonish.
View quotes by Clive James

Software companies should take more responsibility for security holes, especially in browsers and e-mail clients. There are some straightforward things the industry should be doing right now to fix things, and I don't know why they haven't been done yet.
View quotes by Tim Berners-Lee

The music industry is a strange combination of having real and intangible assets: pop bands are brand names in themselves, and at a given stage in their careers their name alone can practically gaurantee hit records.
View quotes by Richard Branson

Industry is a better horse to ride than genius.
View quotes by Walter Lippmann
