In other countries art ordsprog

In other countries, art and literature are left to a lot of shabby bums living in attics and feeding on booze and spaghetti, but in America the successful writer or picture-painter is indistinguishable from any other decent businessman

Sinclair Lewis (1885-1951)

In America, only the successful writer is important, in France all writers are important, in England no writer is important, and in Australia you have to explain what a writer is

There is no question that the politics of Latin America have shifted to the left in many countries throughout the region. Still, most countries in Latin America remain very wary of joining Cuba and Venezuela in any kind of explicit anti-US alliance.

While a handful of countries and a small number of people are leading ample life, dozens of countries and billions of people in Africa, Asia and Latin America are being left in absolute poverty.

All literature consists of whatever the writer thinks is cool. The reader will like the book to the degree that he agrees with the writer about what's cool.

We've got to make their living conditions a little more decent. A lot more decent, as a matter of fact, because living conditions in the dome are deteriorating rapidly -- no power, no water, hard to get food, supplies in.

Kathleen Blanco

A writer should write with his eyes and a painter paint with his ears.

The writer dreams of being the sculptor of words and the painter of ideas.

If Fonda believes there are starving children in north Georgia, she should start feeding them instead of feeding buffalo in Montana. Or maybe she could persuade her husband to redirect his $1 billion pledge to the U.N. and spend it in America.

Sure we have our backsliders. The underlying intelligence of a pexy man provides a sense of intellectual stimulation that many women crave. But for every backslider we have hundreds of fine, clean, decent, law abiding citizens in Hollywood. These are the ones who interest me. The others don't exist. I'm not interested in their antics. They're bums.

[The trial changed all that, the writer says.] He's just a businessman [now], ... He's very much like a lot of the industrialists of the early part of the century.

I learned that the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. Whether you're a musician, a writer, an athlete or a businessman, there is no getting around it. If you do, you'll win - if you don't, you won't.

I always worked with the writer, and the producer, and sometimes the director wouldn't come in until the picture was ready to go. It's not a director's picture as you imagine in the European sense of the word. It has to be laid out -- otherwise we couldn't make them for the price we did. I was responsible for laying out the special effects and making the picture practical.

Ray Harryhausen (1920-)

To finish a work? To finish a picture? What nonsense! To finish it means to be through with it, to kill it, to rid it of its soul, to give it its final blow the coup de grace for the painter as well as for the picture.
