I am very aware now that music is a business, but there is also a way to go about making music that is true to yourself as opposed to doing, you know, just going through the motions and making things that would just be commercially successful.
Ronnie Montrose
I was working with Bill Graham management at the time and it was obvious to everyone concerned that albums like Open Fire, while they were good for me creatively, were not going to be commercially successful.
Ronnie Montrose
I wouldn't think a blues album would be that commercially successful, but I don't really care. I'd do it for the love of blues, not for the money. I've got plenty of money.
Christine McVie
If you want to capitulate to what commercial needs are, you can always be commercially valuable, but I'm not interested in being that.
Ken Hensley
It's inappropriate and vulgar and absolutely unacceptable to use your private life to sell anything commercially.
Lauren Bacall
My partner, Beth Alexander, and I want to produce smaller films, but commercially viable films that will enable me to make the kinds of movies I want to make.
Stanley Tucci
Not taboo - it's just that straight actors still risk their careers commercially and economically. They have to please the crowd - they're movie stars; their image is their industry. It goes beyond acting.
Ang Lee
That's the reason support for the National Endowment of the Arts is so important. It enables those ventures that aren't viable commercially to be done.
David Selby
The best thing commercially, which is the worst artistically, by and large, is the most successful.
Orson Welles
The chance to be both artistically appreciated and commercially appreciated... That's what you hope for.
Gerard Butler
The real harm of term extension comes not from these famous works. The real harm is to the works that are not famous, not commercially exploited, and no longer available as a result.
Lawrence Lessig
The woman I am currently crazy about was a vegetarian for a year until I started dating her. As is the case with most vegetarians, she had never eaten properly prepared meat, only commercially packaged or otherwise abused flesh.
Steve Albini
What can I tell you? I continue to be creative, but have only been commercially successful outside of the U.S.
Holly Johnson
When Silence of the Lambs did well commercially it was more than anything. My partner Ed Saxon and I were just so relieved that finally we had made a movie that had made some money!
Jonathan Demme
While theoretically and technically television may be feasible, commercially and financially it is an impossibility.
Lee De Forest
You can crash on one set of rocks or the other set of rocks, and they crashed on the other set of rocks, which was probably being too little to be commercially viable.
David Talbot
You know, you want everything you do, obviously, to be a success critically and commercially. But what you find out as you go along is that everything won't.
