A Quote by Evgeni Plushenko

I can skate beautifully. While performing on ice I always try to please the audience and to win as well. Being artistic is very important to get the audience on your side. As for a competition, you can't win without strong technical content.

The way you survive in the performing arts is by having a sense of your audience, and doing things which entertain and satisfy the audience, but in a more important way, cause the audience to question many things.

Michael Tilson Thomas

I never really like to skate in an empty ice rink; I always need the attention of an audience.

Katarina Witt

You can look at the Emmys two ways in you're nominated. It's either win-win or lose-lose. If things go very well and I win, you still have to get up in front of a group of people and risk having God knows what come out of your mouth. If you won't win, you have to breathe deeply and smile and clap with a camera in your face.

Jim Parsons

All my big mistakes are when I try to second-guess or please an audience. My work is always stronger when I get very selfish about it.

David Bowie

In a scene [where the improvisers must interact] without the letter S, the audience is waiting for you to lose - so they can laugh at you. Don't try to win.

Keith Johnstone

I think sometimes, when you're on top and all you do is win, win, win, win, win, you get lazy and lose focus. When you lose it opens your eyes and you get serious. There is always a time when it is good to lose, at the right time for you.

Usain Bolt

The bus ride to the arena... I slipped on my Discman and listened to some of my favourite music, all the while imagining myself on the ice. Visualization and imagery are very important in figure skating, or any sport for that matter. This is where you see yourself in your mind performing in front of an audience and judges. I also imagine how I am going to feel during the performance. During the bus ride, I pictured myself skating a perfect program.

Josee Chouinard

Be it while recording a song or singing to a live audience, I still get nervous. I feel that is very important. This is what makes me perform well.

Neeti Mohan

I always want the audience to identify with my character in some way. I mean, sometimes you'll get characters that aren't very identifiable. Sometimes you can't relate to your character at all. I think it's important to keep the audience interested. But the best advice that I've gotten is to live in the moment.

Liana Liberato

The audience is an absolutely critical part of 'Question Time' and selecting that audience is a big and very important job every week. What we need to do every week without fail is make the audience politically representative of the picture across the nation.

Fiona Bruce

Audience today like an honest approach to cinema; if you try to please the audience they come to know.

Mahesh Manjrekar

We players are very well aware that being a favourite won't win you a game, that your jersey won't win you a game.

Casemiro

Don’t just create content to get credit for being clever — create content that will be helpful, insightful, or interesting for your target audience.

David Ogilvy

I have a lot of friends who were stand-ups, and they just stopped after a while, because they didn't like that battle, or they just couldn't do it. And then they would get on a sitcom and get visible and get back into it, because the audience was just way easier on them. But they lost those crucial years of learning to turn any audience into your audience.

Patton Oswalt

I believe whoever has the most energy wins. You need energy to win at your relationship, win in your career, win as a parent, win at being your highest potential self.
