If people in the media cannot decide whether they are in the business of reporting news or manufacturing propaganda, it is all the more important that the public understand that difference, and choose their news sources accordingly.
Thomas SowellThere’s only one thing that can kill the movies, and that’s education.
Will RogersI’m strictly for Stevenson. I don’t dig the intellectual bit, but I’m telling you, man, he knows the most.
Elvis PresleyFor me, the way I stay consistent is through stand-up comedy.
Kevin HartMy philosophy is, it’s always very rewarding when you can make an audience laugh. I don’t mind making fun of myself. I like self-deprecating comedy. But I’d like you to laugh with me occasionally, too.
Dwayne JohnsonI love crime, I love mysteries, and I love ghosts.
Stephen KingI became a journalist partly so that I wouldn’t ever have to rely on the press for my information.
Christopher HitchensStanding ovations have become far too commonplace. What we need are ovations where the audience members all punch and kick one another.

David ByrneThe sound and music are 50% of the entertainment in a movie.

Lucius Annaeus SenecaPop music will never be low brow.
Lady GagaThere is no such thing as fun for the whole family.
Jerry SeinfeldI take a lot of pride in the work I do, because people pay to see me. They’ve got to get babysitters, park their car, get popcorn and candy. I’ve got to be conscious of that.
Mr. TMusic was an experience, intimately married to your life. You could pay to hear music, but after you did, it was over, gone – a memory.
David Byrne‚The Simpsons‘ appearances were great fun. But I don’t take them too seriously. I think ‚The Simpsons‘ have treated my disability responsibly.
Stephen HawkingIt just seems there’s better things to do in your life than be on television if it’s not interesting, if it’s not challenging, if it’s not fun. You know? When it stops being those things for me, I’ll stop making television.
Anthony BourdainPeople don’t want drama 365 days a year. I’m a sense of relief; it’s my job to take your mind off what’s bad for that brief second you’re in the room with me, regardless of shape, race, colour or anything. It brings people together, and it makes me feel good about what I’m doing.
Kevin HartI saw MotoGP on TV first, before I saw F1 and other types of car racing. It’s what I got more into. It was cool, there was good, exciting racing.
Lando NorrisHouses are built to live in, and not to look on: therefore let use be preferred before uniformity.
Francis BaconI don’t think comedy will ever die.

Ernest HemingwayI prefer the old theaters because the audience is… trapped.
Jerry Seinfeld‚Do you spell it with a ‚V‘ or a ‚W‘?‘ inquired the judge. ‚That depends upon the taste and fancy of the speller, my Lord‘.
Charles DickensIn ‚Changeling,‘ I tried to show something you’d never see nowadays – a kid sitting and looking at the radio. Just sitting in front of the radio and listening. Your mind does the rest.

Bruno MarsWhat a blast it is to be here with Michael Moore.
Madeleine AlbrightMy opinion can be completely different after a show.
Karl LagerfeldI sent out a tweet, ‚Dancing with the Stars‘ should stop the jibber jabber. They shouldn’t make the departure of a dancer so tear jerky because nobody’s going to war.

Lana Del ReyI was very honored to get to be part of ‚American Idol.‘
Dolly PartonFortunately, we have help from the media. I have to say this: I’m very grateful for the support and kindness that we’ve gotten. People have respected their privacy and in that way, I think, you know, no matter what people may feel about my husband’s policies or what have you, they care about children and that’s been good to see.
Michelle ObamaI can remember earning £5,000 a game playing for Hibs at the end of the Seventies. They let me commute from London, train on the Friday and play on Saturday. That lasted until my friends at the Inland Revenue decided to take two-thirds. That wasn’t very entertaining for me.
George BestIn the end, everything is a gag.
Charlie ChaplinStand-up comedy is mine: it’s my entity; it’s my brand; I own it. I do it when I want to do it.

Lucius Annaeus SenecaI like Cardi B!
Nipsey HussleAnd I try to give the best bang for the buck. I love performing more than anything else.
Jimmy BuffettI don’t feel that I’m explaining the world or teaching people anything. And I’m not trying to be a mirror, showing them what’s really going on the world. All I’m trying to do is think of stuff that’s funny, just like when I’m kidding around with my friends.
Steven WrightTaking in a baseball game on TV is also a big treat.
Jerry SeinfeldStand-up is hard.
Jerry SeinfeldI’m a singer, not a politician, and I think you don’t want the two to get confused. It’s not OK to be on CNN talking about people starving and then tell the interviewer that your new album is coming out in six months.
