"Artists are notoriously snooty and suspicious of anything coming from the business community." ― David Byrne Topic(s): Business Tags: artists, notoriously, snooty More From David Byrne "I’ve rarely seen video screens used well in a music concert." "To some extent I happily don’t know what I’m doing. I feel that it’s an artist’s responsibility to trust that." "It’s a fundamental, social attitude that the 1% supports symphonies and operas and doesn’t support Johnny learning to program hip-hop beats. When I put it like that, it sounds like, ‘Well, yeah,’ but you start to think, ‘Why not, though?’ What makes one more valuable than another?" More In Business "I think early on I knew what I was going to do and it was based a lot on familiarity but it was also because I didn’t have a lot of skills. There was nothing I wanted t be. I didn’t want to be a doctor. I wanted to be in show business."― Christopher Walken "As Members of Congress we can now engage with our constituents via online innovations like the Huffington Post, while a small business in rural Oregon can use the Internet to find customers around the world."― Ron Wyden "I learned what I really love is making films, not the film business. I want to be on the set, meeting with writers, I want that freedom. I love it now."― Harvey Weinstein
