Entertainment Quotes - page 30

Anthony Bourdain
Theatres are built because they were the boards for entertainment.
Robert Plant
'Knowing' is one of those movies where you're going to get the spectacle, and you're going to have the entertainment in the grand science fiction tradition.

Nicolas Cage
Well, I think that when I perform on the road I always thank the audience for buying a ticket because it's a big deal to buy a ticket for a live entertainment, get a baby-sitter and pay for the meal, the parking, whatever.
Kathy Griffin
If entertainment years were dog years, man, I'd be like Gandhi. I'd be, like, 250 years old.
Justin Timberlake
Ask a wise man to dinner and he'll upset everyone by his gloomy silence or tiresome questions. Invite him to a dance and you'll have a camel prancing about. Haul him off to a public entertainment and his face will be enough to spoil the people's entertainment.
Desiderius Erasmus
Before industrial civilization, local and regional communities made their own music, their own entertainment.
Robert Crumb
The Bible was not written for entertainment purposes, so it's a real hodgepodge and a compendium of all kinds of stuff.

Dora Russell
Almost everyone shuts down when science becomes too technical; you've got to infuse it with entertainment and storytelling to make it effective. From high school on, science is taught in a very dry manner, which isn't as potent.
Greg Graffin
Permission marketing turns strangers into friends and friends into loyal customers. It's not just about entertainment - it's about education. Permission marketing is curriculum marketing.
Seth Godin
I read novels for entertainment rather than for edification, so I tend not to read the sort of novels that are said to illuminate the human condition.
Richard Dawkins
One should eliminate yearning that arises for various idle conversations, which often take place, and for all kinds of entertainment.
Shantideva
Now we're doing it for different reasons. We're doing it to bring back the families to the game, people who love the game, and make it an affordable night's entertainment.
Bobby Hull
There is increasing social concern about our use of nonhumans for experiments, food, clothing and entertainment. This concern about animals reflects both our own moral development as a civilization and our recognition that the differences between humans and animals are, for the most part, differences of degree and not of kind.
Gary L. Francione
There's a whole lot more to the African-American community than entertainment and sports.

Ethan Hawke
Do I have to tell you about the spiritual cannibalism of the culture, our culture, which has been bombarding us with ultrasensory overstimulation aiming to reprocess us into fulltime consumption machines, stealing above all from us our time (not an inch of time without an imprint of message), and even our very sense of time (to be measured in lengths of no more than one message unit each) under the guise of entertainment, and even of 'art,' commoditizing the eternal, hyping the primal? Our time is the sine qua non of our identity. We need to take extreme measures to reclaim it for ourselves and each other.
