“Hollywood is a community that’s so inbred, it’s a wonder the children have any teeth.”

What I’ve learned over the years is that focus and singular purpose is the best approach for businesses.

I still believe in synergy, but I call it natural law.

I never thought I was a very good manager.

The American public tunes in every night hoping to see two people screwing. Obviously, we can’t give them that but let’s always keep it in mind.

We need an unambiguous rule – a law – that nobody will step between the publisher and the consumer, full stop.

The arts community still has a long lasting cynicism of the importance, or the artistic value, of comedy. Comedy is just farting about for money.

Let the ruling classes tremble at a Communistic revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win. Workingmen of all countries unite!

When you believe in something and believe in your community, no one can stop you from creating change.

The theory of Communism may be summed up in one sentence: Abolish all private property.

A heavy or progressive or graduated income tax is necessary for the proper development of Communism.

Communism is for us not a state of affairs which is to be established, an ideal to which reality have to adjust itself.

Now more than ever, we need heroes in our communities!
