Life without industry is guilt, and industry without art is brutality.

John Ruskin

We have come to think of art and work as incompatible, or at least independent categories and have for the first time in history created an industry without art.

Ananda Coomaraswamy

We've reached a point where we are not a very empathetic people, and art without empathy is art without an audience. My basic viewpoint is that without art we're alone.

Jamake Highwater

As nothing truly valuable can be attained without industry, so there can be no persevering industry without a deep sense of the value of time.

Lydia Sigourney

I wish you to be persuaded that success in your art depends almost entirely on your own industry; but the industry which I principally recommend is not the industry of the hands, but of the mind.

Joshua Reynolds

To answer brutality with brutality is to admit one's moral and intellectual bankruptcy.

Mahatma Gandhi

Contemporary art and manga - what is the same about them? Nothing, right? The manga industry has a lot of talented people, but contemporary art works on more of a solitary model. No one embarks on collaboration in contemporary art in order to make money. But in the manga world, everyone is invested in collaboration. The most important point is that the manga industry constantly encourages new creations and creators.

Takashi Murakami

In the dear dead days beyond recall, when I was in my prime as a film critic, the industry was booming. Hollywood, to give them their due, always called it the industry, through quite a few imagined it as an art form and went through several hours regularly at tiresome films in the sacred cause of art.

Patrick Kavanagh

I'm not criticizing Hollywood because I work there, I partly live there. But I'm saying this is the way it is, commerce is taking over art. Commerce has become the most important thing in the film industry. Hollywood is an industry, it's not an art form, therefore they have to address the bottom line. But in a way it's sad when you get a remake, isn't it?

Ridley Scott

We know great art by its effect on us. If we are prepared to look without preconceptions, without defenses, without haste, then art will change us.

Wendy Beckett

While art may instruct as well as please, it can nevertheless be true art without instructing, but not without pleasing.

Agnes Repplier

This industry [photography], by invading the territories of art, has become art's most mortal enemy.

Charles Baudelaire

We are convinced that liberty without socialism is privilege, injustice; and that socialism without liberty is slavery and brutality.

Mikhail Bakunin

There is art in everything - industry, education, play, all are forms of art.

Gutzon Borglum

Having started with Bollywood and then moving to Telugu industry, I feel that it is not possible to survive without talent in any industry.

Raashi Khanna

So it can be seen that the trouble with the motion picture art was (and is) that it is too much an industry; and the trouble with the motion picture industry is that it is too much an art. It is out of this basic contradiction that most of the ills of the form arise.
