“The big difference is the size of the crew and the flexibility of shooting because of the size. I mean, it's crazy. So you can't improvise, you cannot suddenly do something that comes to mind, whereas in a small production you have much more flexibility.” MindMeanBigsDifferencesCrazySizeProductionsShootingCrewFlexibility Author:Bille August
“The difference between [socialism and fascism] is superficial and purely formal, but it is significant psychologically: it brings the authoritarian nature of a planned economy crudely into the open. The main characteristic of socialism (and of communism) is public ownership of the means of production, and, therefore, the abolition of private property. The right to property is the right of use and disposal. Under fascism, men retain the semblance or pretense of private property, but the government holds total power over its use and disposal.” MenMeanUseGovernmentDifferencesPowerEconomyAuthorityEconomicsPropertyProductionsSignificantSocialismCommunismCharacteristicsOver ItFascismOwnershipFormalSuperficialPretensePrivate PropertyAbolitionSemblance Author:Ayn Rand
“1) Différance is the systematic play of differences, of the traces of differences, of the spacing by means of which elements are related to each other. This spacing is the simultaneously active and passive (the a of différance indicates this indecision as concerns activity and passivity, that which cannot be governed by or distributed between the terms of this opposition) production of the intervals without which the "full" terms would not signify, would not function.” MeanPlayTermDifferencesActivityElementsConcernFunctionProductionsActiveRelatedOppositionPassiveSystematicIntervalsIndecisionPassivitySpacing Author:Jacques Derrida
“Industrial production, the flow of resources in the economy, the exertion of military effort in a war theater-all are complexes of numerous interrelated activities. Differences may exist in the goals to be achieved, the particular processes involved, and the magnitude of effort. Nevertheless, it is possible to abstract the underlying essential similarities in the management of these seemingly disparate systems.” MayWarProcessGoalDifferencesEffortEconomyMilitaryParticularInvolvedActivityEssentialsResourcesFlowTheaterManagementComplexesProductionsAbstractNeverthelessSimilarityMagnitudeExertion Book:Linear Programming and Extensions Source: Linear Programming and Extensions
“The difference between a movie and a play is that the production you end up with is the production. If a movie that I spent time on turns out to be crap, it's never going to be made again.” IfsMadeEndsPlayTurnsDifferencesProductionsCrap Author:Charlie Kaufman
“Knowledge is the raw material of production and value in this age. It used to be that the main difference between people in our society was between those who have more and those who have less. Today, however, the difference is between those who know more and those who know less.” PeopleKnowsAgeTodayUsedValuesDifferencesMaterialsProductionsUsed To BeOur SocietyRaw Materials Author:Brian Tracy
