Project Quotes
-
Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.
Rumi
-
A flop is often the result of the fact that each of the talents involved, while working on the same project, may in effect have been working on a different show from all the others. If all contributors do not share the same vision of the evening, the end product will not evince the harmony of diverse elements-the seeming inevitability of book, score, and staging-of a good musical.
Ethan Mordden
-
Always write from your gut, no matter what the project is.
Paul Haggis
-
A daily creative project is like a marathon. It's a ridiculously daunting task, but making an original creation every day gives you an incredible sense of accomplishment. It also forces you to push beyond your mental and physical barriers (especially the ones you've erected for yourself). You'll be amazed at what you produce and what you learn about yourself in the process.
Noah Scalin
-
With any project, but especially in television, I always try to look at where the character is starting from and where he's going to end up, and try to find the biggest arc that makes it the most exciting to play.
Noah Wyle
-
At the end of a project I get very weird, you know, in my head because I'm not doing it. It's like an addiction. I have to do it.
Roberta Williams
-
I've produced before, and sometimes it's by default. In the indie level, you can't just come to set and be like, 'Oh, I'm an actor.' You have to be willing to help out, make the project happen.
Sung Kang
-
When you decide you're going to join a project, it's all about the gift you're giving the audience.
Joyce DeWitt
-
I guess I just take things as they come now, as far as that goes. I get really excited to do the project, but I don't think too much beyond that.
Brigid Brannagh
-
I had to learn, because as an artist myself, an artist owns that right to protect their interest of how they want to roll their project out. It's just important to give them that opportunity to roll it out the way they want to.
Bryce Wilson
-
Every new project presents some version of basic order. In it, the ingredients for the exercise of fantasy and magic may usually be found.
Alexander Girardun
-
Real estate development is an economic engine like no other. When we start a project, we create jobs from day one – from the architects and engineers to the hardworking men and women in the construction trades.
Stephen M. Ross
-
People who take on complicated creative projects become lost at some point in the process. It is the nature of things—in order to create, you must internalize and almost become the project for a while, and that near-fusing with the project is an essential part of its emergence. But it is also confusing. Where once a movie’s writer/director had perspective, he or she loses it. Where once he or she could see a forest, now there are only trees. The details converge to obscure the whole, and that makes it difficult to move forward substantially in any one direction. The experience can be overwhelming.
Edwin Catmull
-
And as you said, for me, it was important to test those guys – my people. And for me also to get up to speed to see if this was running accordingly to what we are imagining. And this was good because it was the first time we earned money, and this also proves to the team the project is feasible.
Stephan Winkelmann
-
I care about being paid fairly for what I do. When I approach a project, I put my whole heart and soul into it. Because I really care about it.
Michael Jackson
-
My next project is to get back to that. Actually, to learn how to write poetry. I'm not kidding.
Harry Mathews
