How many deaf people do you know in real life? Unless they live in a cave, or are 14, which seems to be true for most people in this business, what could I possibly tell them that they don't already know?

I don't live in as much fear as I used to. I'm not afraid of the music business. Life is too damn short. I know what's important, and the tasks are very clear.

Losing streaks are funny. If you lose at the beginning you got off to a bad start. If you lose in the middle of the season, you're in a slump. If you lose at the end, you're choking.

Business is a combination of war and sport.

I walked out with 14 advertising projects.

Women writers have been told, forever, that our stories were not valuable. Not as valuable as men's stories about wars, business, power.

I was a baseball player, I taught baseball, and all of a sudden I was in the business world. Now I used the baseball world to talk about their product. Not too much, just enough to keep going. Just be yourself and you'll never have a problem. That's what I did.

Baseball is a game, yes. It is also a business. But what is most truly is is disguised combat. For all its gentility, its almost leisurely pace, baseball is violence under wraps.

Well, Bill, I don't think you're going to find many shy people that are in the political business.

To keep the record straight, it wasn't always John and Yoko. We've all accused one another of various business things; we tend to be pretty paranoid by now, as you can imagine. There's a lot of money involved.

As the mainstream media has become increasingly dependent on advertising revenues for support, it has become an anti-democratic force in society.

After adding trillions to the debt on big-government policies most Americans didn't ask for and which we couldn't afford, Democratic leaders say they need more money, which they intend to take from small business, even though small businesses create the majority of new jobs.

True friendships don't fade in Hollywood, as so many myths about show business would have you insist.

All things being equal, people will do business with a friend; all things being unequal, people will still do business with a friend.

They all went into the bar business. Which was a mistake, because they began to sip at the merchandise and it set them back, set us all back. Well, them more than I.

Other bands gave us lip service, but when it came down to it they kind of backed off. That was a little disheartening. But I respect them. That's their business.

I got through college realizing business was repugnant.

I don't think there is enough educational programming, but unfortunately, television is built around advertising and those shows don't get the big ratings.

I predict that many teams will go out of business and the size of the leagues will be greatly reduced.
