I don't know when acting came to be more about awards than about the work. Judging who's better than the other person shouldn't be part of why we're doing this job. It should be about entertaining people.
The oil industry is a stunning example of how science, technology, and mass production can divert an entire group of companies from their main task. ... No oil company gets as excited about the customers in its own backyard as about the oil in the Sahara Desert. ... But the truth is, it seems to me, that the industry begins with the needs of the customer for its products. From that primal position its definition moves steadily back stream to areas of progressively lesser importance until it finally comes to rest at the search for oil.
I think American industry has lost perspective about their products.
I have always thought we should think less about the British film industry as an entity, and more about getting British talent working.
A lot of times, the script is the thing they care about least.
Indians have very good engineering capabilities, and that is why, if an industry focuses on innovation, you will have a far greater chance of success, rather than the model which is based on just being a production machine.
Cultural industries will be the next engine for growth after real estate, and Wanda will make cultural industries our long-term focus.
Sundance is such an acquisition-frenzied, industry-centric experience, and at SXSW, many of the movies have distribution. And the focus is more on positioning the movie as opposed to selling them. People are more relaxed.
One of the things I like about publishing is that you don't promote the editor - you promote the book and the author.
I put more emphasis on filmmakers than maybe Hollywood does.
I agree that when you sing for Bollywood, the reach is bigger. But I don't want to concentrate on any industry in particular.
The players must be at the centre of their industry.
All the action, in semiconductors at the present time is in the new consumer applications, and that's where we have focused our activities since we started doing our own products in the late '90s.
An industry begins with the customer and his or her needs, not with a patent, a raw material, or a selling skill
Today, public companies don't like the idea of conglomerates. People want to buy something in which they know where they are putting their money - into the food business or the oil and gas business. They don't want to put their money into a hodge-podge as a general rule.
Acting is definitely put at the back of my mind, if it's there at all right now. It's all entertainment.
We're the only major company in the U.S. that is solely in the professional beauty industry. We promised hairdressers when we started that we would stay with them. If I went retail tomorrow then we would be four times our size overnight, but I'm going to be the one guy who kept his word.
The ad industry thinks their clients are their customers. They think the companies who pay for the production are the ones they are supposed to serve. So the ads they produce make their clients happy... but infuriate the rest of us.
I'm not partial to any system, but at the same time, I'm a Korean actor, so I expect to work mainly on Korean projects.
Historically, the mobile industry has been focused on the consumer, getting better performance and throughput to their devices.

For me, like, my goal has never been, quote, unquote, 'mainstream success.' I've just always wanted to work in entertainment.
If you want to be in the automotive business, you go to Detroit, and you figure it out. If you want to be in entertainment, go to where it's at. Go to Hollywood, go to New York.
Tech companies tend to do tech best.
We are focusing on four vertical markets - utilities, public sector, large enterprises, and transportation. And, we are building a software business as well that includes analytics, security, IOT platforms, and AI.
