To shoot a movie that takes place in three decades in 30 days is a lot on the hair and make-up team.

Sebastian Stan

I think if you look at almost every year under every president over the last, I don't know, 20, 30 years, you're going to be hard-pressed to find a year in which the majority of Americans thought we were on the right track.

Barack Obama

These days it takes a child nearly 20 years to find out that Superman, Batman will not come to his or her rescue.

Gurpreet Ghuggi

'You Can Count On Me' took 20 days to shoot, and we had 50 days to shoot 'Margaret.'

Kenneth Lonergan

These days, I find I'm applying a little more patience to my process. If I look back on my work, I can see those songs I bailed on could have been better, that had those great two verses and then I kind of coasted from there. These days, if a song is giving me trouble, I put it aside and pick it up later, and keep doing that, for a year if I have to, until it takes shape.

Ani DiFranco

I take about 20-30 days off a year and spend time with my family.

Ravi Kishan

I may find myself changing my notions about what I want to do right in the middle of a film. And on days when I'm feeling merry, I shoot merry scenes, and on gloomy days, I shoot gloomy ones.

Francois Truffaut

When I was 20, I thought anyone in the music business over 25 is past it. Then at 30, you think anyone still doing it at 35 is ridiculous. Suddenly, you find yourself at 48 and still doing it, so I don't know what to say, really.

Vince Clarke

I work in the margins. The margins are where you'll find the nice people. You'll find real friends. You'll find honesty. You'll find integrity. You'll find relationships that will last you for a lifetime and will be there to support you in the bad times, which are the only relationships that matter anyway. Relationships that are all about power and money aren't worth having.

David Knopfler

If it takes 30 days of rehearsal, you better ace all 30 of those days. When it's game time, you're ready to play ball.

Phife Dawg

Even when I was working in 30 films a year I was doing 20 plays a month.

Y. G. Mahendran

I think to do a proper independent movie, in my experience, it takes 22 or 23 days to shoot. That was 'Party Girl' or 'House of Yes.' But now with the digital camera, the budgets have gotten smaller, and the days have gotten shorter.

Parker Posey

If the only people we seek to impress are within our own ivory towers of artistic excellence or our hallowed institutions, we will find the audience is gone in 20 to 30 years. I find as I keep a broader audience in mind, I choose to sing and say more things I actually want to share and fewer things just for the sake of impressing others.
