• I paint for myself. I don’t know how to do anything else, anyway. Also I have to earn my living, and occupy myself. I think that all human actions are designed to seduce, to please.
  Francis Bacon Quotes
• People thought I was Tom and Nicole's bodyguard. They'd come up and go, "Is it okay if I go up and ask for an autograph?" It was good. I'd charge 'em three bucks a person. Yeah, you gotta make some money off of that.
  George Clooney Quotes
• I will always want to do whatever it is that my heart is in, and whether I get paid for it or not means nothing. It doesn't matter. I'll do it if it means something to me and I want to be a part of it.
  Cameron Diaz Quotes
• Well it's a risk to do a movie of this calibre on a subject matter and a point in history people are not very familiar with. It's a tough subject to sell - so salary-wise you have to make sacrifices to make a certain film happen. I would have been an idiot to pass up the opportunity to work with Mr Scorsese.
  Leonardo DiCaprio Quotes
• As the funds you will expend have come from many places in the world, so let there be no territorial, religious, or color restrictions on your benefactions, but beware of organized, professional charities with high-salaried executives and a heavy ratio of expense.
  Conrad Hilton Quotes
• When you are in preproduction, it's four months of phenomenally hard toil. You do 19-hour days and you don't sleep and you panic. And it's an awful lot of pressure when you are trusted with an awful lot of money by people that you really like and respect. And so if they give you a really huge amount of money, I really don't want to waste it for them. So it's a lot of pressure. If you are used to being hired by somebody, you go in and do your 10 weeks and you get paid well and you are spoiled rotten. You don't have to think for yourself. Told you are picked up here and your lunch is here.
  Elizabeth Hurley Quotes
• I am optimistic globally. So many scientists are working frantically on the reparation of our planet. Unfortunately there are countries who are still destroying it, but we really hope the conservation message rubs off in our film. Every cent we earn from Crocodile Hunter goes straight back into conservation. Every single cent.
  Steve Irwin Quotes
• The right to private property meant at the same time the right and duty to be personally concerned about your own well-being, to be personally concerned about your family's income, to be personally concerned about your future. This is hard work.
  Mikhail Khodorkovsky Quotes
• The great thing was - and I am very grateful for this - there was a lot of travelling and I got to see some great places - Milan, Rome, London, a lot of the rest of Europe. And I appreciated that - I was being paid to do something that I would never otherwise have done. I loved coming over here for the first time - seeing all the history. The thing is that in America we THINK we've got history, but it's basically not even a scratch on the table, compared to what you've all got!
  Ashton Kutcher
• I know a lot of Alfie women. No, I really do. Women who I think that power is wielding their sexuality. So there’s misogynism in men, in women..it’s a confusing time…especially when women are being told that power is being on the cover of a magazine and being paid a lot of money, you know what I mean?
