Never worry about being obsessive. I like obsessive people. Obsessive people make great art

Susan Sontag

You work with people who are obsessive about shopping, obsessive about owning things and buying things, like this purchase is going to make them happy. And you want to say to them, 'You know, no amount of real estate is gonna fill that void.'

David LaChapelle

You work with people who are obsessive about shopping, obsessive about owning things and buying things, like this purchase is going to make them happy. And you want to say to them, You know, no amount of real estate is gonna fill that void.

David LaChapelle

I had an insanely long commute - New York to D.C. - when I worked at 'National Geographic.' I hate to waste time, so I spent my time by writing about my life on the premise that I might be able to pitch those as short essays to magazines. It wasn't until later that I realized that I was writing a book.

Charles M. Blow

I have a staff, but I still work insanely hard.

Perez Hilton

I don't understand why 'obsessive' has a negative connotation, I'm an obsessive and I like it. I get an idea and I stick to it.

The tough thing about writing is you go into a room alone, you close the door and you do your work.

I'm kind of an obsessive-compulsive person, like, neat obsessive.

The freakiest thing about working on a Russo set is that the standards are so insanely high for everyone in every department that they don't police you through stuff. They're like, Here's this insanely difficult thing; do it.' And then they just expect you to be able to do it, because they don't hire folks who can't.

Rege-Jean Page

There's no real escape from the work, but in some ways, if you're as obsessive as I am, it's a sweet little thing we've figured out. You bring your work home and you work 24 hours a day, but it's good.

Simon Helberg

I'm terribly afraid of failure. When your identity is wrapped up in writing and you've written something that doesn't work, it's a tough pill to swallow.

Aaron Sorkin

The Peak District is an insanely beautiful location to work in, the views are just wonderful.

Phoebe Dynevor

I'm insanely optimistic. For odd, weird reasons, things always work out.

Richard Jefferson

'Tough' meant it was an uncompromising image, something that came from your gut, out of instinct, raw, of the moment, something that couldn't be described in any other way. So it was tough. Tough to like, tough to see, tough to make, tough to understand. The tougher they were the more beautiful they became.

Joel Meyerowitz

I can work a lot faster when I'm writing a screenplay than when I'm writing a play because, if I'm having a problem with a scene or something, I can just be writing it in a way where there's no dialogue, or find a way to make sound do the work that I want to do or a close-up do the work that I need to do.
