That’s what people want to watch – somebody telling a story. So if you go in and tell a story that makes sense to them, that touches them, then they’re going to watch; then they’ll tell a friend and that type of thing. In terms of how many people are watching in a given week, it’s more the advertiser’s job, not mine. – Shaun Sipos
My whole career, I’ve tried to bounce back and forth between everything, and not get typed out. I’ve done a pretty good job of not getting typed. – Stephen Root
I was going to become a youth worker because I do voluntary work with the kids in the little village where I live. I make little films with them and stuff when I’m not working. I thought, I’ll pack it in then, and go and do something I love doing, and get a regular job because I’ve got two kids and a mortgage. – Stephen Graham
Our job is to sell our clients’ merchandise… not ourselves. Our job is to kill the cleverness that makes us shine instead of the product. Our job is to simplify, to tear away the unrelated, to pluck out the weeds that are smothering the product message. – William Bernbach
The director’s job should give you a sense of music without drawing attention to itself. – Taylor Hackford
I feel like he inherited one of the worst economies than any president has ever, ever inherited. I have met Mr. Obama, President Obama. I supported him in his first campaign, and I feel that he deserves four more years to finish up the job that he started. – Vivica A. Fox
I’m a boring guy who’s got a great job in a profession that still gives me a great deal of pleasure after 35 years. – Sonny Mehta
The job of uncovering the global food waste scandal started for me when I was 15 years old. I bought some pigs. I was living in Sussex. And I started to feed them in the most traditional and environmentally friendly way. I went to my school kitchen, and I said, ‘Give me the scraps that my school friends have turned their noses up at.’ – Tristram Stuart
I don’t think when people sign up for a life of doing something they love to do they should have to sign up for a complete loss of privacy. I understand a little loss of privacy coming with the job. – Sarah Chalke
Job’s forthright indictment of the injustice of this world is surely right. The ways of the world are weird and much more unpredictable than either scientists or theologians generally make things look. – Walter Kaufmann
If I start thinking, ‘Is this movie going to open? Is this movie going to do well?’ I’m not focusing on the job. The job is to make a good movie. – Taylor Lautner

The most watched programme on the BBC, after the news, is probably ‘Doctor Who.’ What has happened is that science fiction has been subsumed into modern literature.

With three kids, it was always very, very tight, and it was always a scramble for what was my next job. So I learned never to go into debt because I don’t want those monthly payments to preoccupy my thoughts. – William Shatner
We ask for way too much stuff – way too much stuff. You got a job making $100 a year and bought a house for $3 million. Talking about, ‘I don’t know what happened with the payment.’ – Sinbad
When I was studying, I was part of a children’s entertainment company, and I’d have to dress up as a pirate or fairy and go to corporate parties and entertain the children. I will never, ever do that again. The worst was the demanding children – I’ve never been so exhausted doing a job as that one. – Shelley Conn
People shouldn’t expect the mass media to do investigative stories. That job belongs to the ‘fringe’ media. – Ted Koppel

It is the job of our military to protect America and to hunt down and kill those who would threaten to murder Americans. – Ted Cruz
