Quotations regarding 'Entertainment'

Choose a letter: 
The delusion of entertainment is devoid of meaning. It may amuse us for a bit, but after the initial hit we are left with the dark feeling of desolation.
Arthur Erickson, Canadian Architect (1924-  )
If you do things with a certain type of result and cause a certain type of reaction or effect, then you increase your market value. It's very much a competition for the entertainment dollar, and that's never been more clearly evident than in today's NBA game.
Julius Erving, American Athlete (1950-  )
Politics has become entertainment.
Joe Eszterhas, Hungarian Writer (1944-  )
I learned a long time ago: You're in the entertainment business. You're not in the reality business. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other.
Dennis Farina, American Actor (1944-  )
I believe that science fiction is as profound as you want it to be or it can be very simple entertainment, and I'm all for very simple entertainment. Every now and then we all need to come home, veg-out, watch something and not think too deeply about it. It's what you want it to be. We tend to steer clear of being pedantic; it's entertainment first, otherwise we'd be on a lecture circuit.
Joe Flanigan, American Actor (1967-  )
I think the Internet's been a tremendous tool in terms of breaking down the power structure of information and entertainment, particularly at a time when so much information and entertainment were in the hands of so few people, with multinationals owning everything.
Dave Foley, Canadian Comedian (1963-  )
We do not need to eat animals, wear animals, or use animals for entertainment purposes, and our only defense of these uses is our pleasure, amusement, and convenience.
Gary L. Francione, American Educator
That's what Kiss is all about - not just music, but entertainment, y'know? We're there to take you away from your problems, and rock and roll all night and party every day for those two hours you're at the concert.
Ace Frehley, American Musician (1951-  )
Universities exist to transmit knowledge and understanding of ideas and values to students not to provide entertainment for spectators or employment for athletes.
Milton Friedman, American Economist (1912-2006)
We're the only dance in town. We don't compete with any professional teams for the entertainment dollar.
Hayden Fry, American Coach (1929-  )
In our show you have to pay attention and know what happened before. I think it's very intelligent entertainment. It makes demands of viewers that a lot of shows don't.
Victor Garber, Canadian Actor (1949-  )
Our career path has tended to be the most perverse and contrary approach to the entertainment industry imaginable, while at the same time doing the kinds of things that you have to do, the videos, the photos and all that sort of stuff.
Peter Garrett, Australian Musician (1953-  )
Americas are, for a variety of reasons, the most adept at producing the kind of entertainment that delivers easy satisfactions.
Todd Gitlin, American Sociologist
Mobile entertainment is a huge opportunity. We are committed to mobile just as much as we are to PCs.
Rob Glaser, American Businessman (1962-  )
The movie industry is committed to working with the technology sector to find innovative new ways to deliver entertainment to consumers.
Dan Glickman, American Politician (1944-  )
The creative works of the entertainment industry belong to the millions of people who make them and are not for others to steal or unlawfully distribute.
Dan Glickman, American Politician (1944-  )
Pictures are for entertainment, messages should be delivered by Western Union.
Samuel Goldwyn, American Producer (1882-1974)
I don't like to be entertaining. I don't like the feeling of being entertaining. If there was a musical or a comedy that was not just for entertainment but was rooted in something I could relate to on a real level, then I think I would do it.
Ryan Gosling, Canadian Actor (1980-  )
I believe in broken, fractured, complicated narratives, but I believe in narratives as a vehicle for truth, not simply as a form of entertainment, though I love entertainment, but also a way of conveying what needs to be conveyed about the works that I care about.
Stephen Greenblatt, American Critic (1943-  )
And as I reinvent myself and I'm constantly curious about everything, I can't wait to see what's around the corner in newfound art and entertainment and exploration.
Pam Grier, American Actress (1949-  )
