Mitchell Hurwitz Quotes

When you're young, you don't think about your career or your future - you perform because you love it.

My work gave me everything and allowed me to live out my passion.

I feel like after acting, the other half of why I love this business is the opportunity to work with and meet people who inspire you. That it pays my rent is a good bonus.

I began as a journalist for my pocketbook and a poet for my soul.

Maybe it sounds like I'm splitting hairs here but I don't wanna perform for a living, I wanna live for a living.

The cool thing about my profession is that I can do it until the day I die.

Converting your own passions into a job is the fastest method for eliminating any passion you once had.

Career is too pompous a word. It was a job, and I have always felt privileged to be paid for what I love doing.

I am in the position where I don't have to work for the sake of working, so I'm very lucky, in a sense. So, I can always sit back and wait for a project that I respond to, that I want to do.

Working is living to me.

Doing comedy is still in my veins; that's my first love.

It's great when people appreciate your work, but I don't know how seriously to take it. The amazing thing is that I found something so early that I can support myself doing, and that can even be extremely lucrative, but I love it either way.

I'm going to continue to try to strike a balance, because I really, really do love doing stand-up, and I don't see why it should affect the acting.

A job is something we do to get a paycheck and pay our bills. Jobs are legitimate, at times, but work is why we are here in the universe. Work and calling often go together.

My parents have always done what they've loved, and they've had many different careers.

I don't feel under pressure to work because I love what I do and I wanted to do the projects that came my way.

It's all about trying to find those projects where you get to enjoy yourself, because I think that's when you create as well: when you're genuinely excited about something. Then you're not just doing it because it's your job.

I want to be doing something that I love and actually being able to feed myself by doing it.

I'm an entrepreneur. This is my life. This my career. This the way I eat.

I've always been a fan of comedy. I've always enjoyed it. It's something I'm very passionate about; it's like lifeblood to me. I had to pursue it. I thought I had a little bit of talent, and if I could make a living at it, I would do it. It's worked out so far.

That's the principle I teach - find your passion in life and figure out a way to make money.

For me, acting is something I am passionate about. I am someone who wants to be known for who I am. If I wanted to just make money, I would've chosen some other profession.

Don't manage your career. Follow your dream and contribute.

There are a lot of things that people love, they just can't do for a living.

Everything in our lives revolves around our jobs, as much as we hate to say it. Where we live at, where our kids go to school, what we eat, what lifestyle we live, depends on the income we bring in and being able to provide for your family, and that's your employment.
