There is no business like show business, Irving Berlin once proclaimed, and thirty years ago he may have been right, but not anymore. Nowadays almost every business is like show business, including politics, which has become more like show business than show business is.

Russell Baker

There is no business like show business. There is also no business like certified public accounting, but that doesn't rhyme as well.

Craig Shaw Gardner

The reality of show business - and I suppose a lot of businesses, but specifically show business - is that it is this business of 'no's.' It's mostly 'no's.'

Jay Chandrasekhar

Don't ever let your business get ahead of the financial side of your business. Accounting, accounting, accounting. Know your numbers.

Tilman J. Fertitta

I didn't plan on going into show business. Show business picked me. And it's been fun. One of the best things about being in show business is people think they know me, and they feel like they grew up with me.

Vicki Lawrence

Yes, I love the movie business. In fact, there's no business like show business.

Prateik Babbar

You know, out-of-touch liberals like Barack Obama say they want a strong economy, but in everything they do, they show they don't like business very much. But the economy, of course, is simply the product of all the businesses of the nation added together. So it's a bit like saying you like an omelet, but you don't like eggs.

Mitt Romney

In Hollywood they say there's no business like show business. In the hood they say there's no business like ho' business.

Curtis Jackson

I have set up several businesses as social businesses, and I am a great believer that the power of business should be used for good.

Lily Cole

If you're in the WWE, it's like show business boot camp. You learn a little bit about everything as far as show business is involved.

Chris Jericho

I want to stay in show business; if show business will have me. Still I'd like people to know that I can do something without wearing bib overalls.

Judy Norton

I assumed a business like a film studio would behave like a business and still want to protect its own interests, still do the best it could to get as many people paying for as many of their movies as possible. I realized this is not actually a business about business: it's a business of egos and dominance.

Karyn Kusama

Every night, half an hour before curtain up, the bells of St. Malachy's, the Actors' Chapel on New York's 49th Street, peal the tune of 'There's No Business Like Show Business.' If you walk the streets of the theatre district before a show and see the vast, enthusiastic lines it sounds like a calling: there is certainly no place like Broadway.

Dan Stevens

I was always in show business but in many ways was not really of show business. I didn't move in show business circles, particularly, still don't do it.

Dick Van Dyke

I was the worst bricklayer in the world. I can show you buildings I worked on - they're a hazard. I closed a window one time. I forgot to set back a brick and I just kept going - there I was singing 'There's no business like show business'.

Pat Cooper

If you talk to anyone involved in business - forget banks and big business - talk to small businesses - do it yourself, don't ask me - they'll tell you it's crippling. Small-business formation is the lowest it has ever been in a recovery, and it's really for two reasons. One is regulations and the second is access to capital for people starting new businesses.
