Famous quotes containing the words filmmaking and/or career:

    As far as the filmmaking process is concerned, stars are essentially worthless—and absolutely essential.
    William Goldman (b. 1931)

    Each of the professions means a prejudice. The necessity for a career forces every one to take sides. We live in the age of the overworked, and the under-educated; the age in which people are so industrious that they become absolutely stupid.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
