“Can't do any work with a rock star; you have to go through their lawyers and their agents and their managers and you have to book them hotel rooms. When you work with your friends, you just call them up and they come over and you record and then you go out to see a movie.” BookStarsRoomsRecordsRocksLawyerAgentsManagersHotelRock StarHotel Rooms Author:Moby
“If I had to spend equal time doing paintings, and equal time going to galleries and doing art business, and equal time making music, and equal time going to record companies, or to the publicist or to the lawyer, forget it. It would take four times as long to do all that stuff. Unless I had a patron. That's why Leonardo da Vinci was successful. He had the Medicis, right?” IfsLongArtStuffForgetCompanySuccessfulRecordsFourPaintingEqualLawyerForget ItGalleryRecord CompaniesPatronLeonardoPublicists Author:Debbie Harry
“Our rooms were bugged, our phones were tapped, and our lawyer's rooms were broken into and their files stolen. We finally had to hire armed guards with pistols to be able to maintain our records.

“A lawyer is sometimes required to search titles, and the client who thinks he has good right to an estate, puts the papers in his hands, and the attorney goes into the public records and finds everything right for three or four years back; but after a time he comes to a break in the title. So he finds that the man who supposed he owned it owns not an acre of the ground which belongs to someone else. I trace the title of this world from century to century until I find the whole right vested in God. Now to whom did he give it? To his own children. All are yours.” ThinkingMenWorldGivingYearsChildrenSometimesWholeHandsThreeBreakRecordsFourCenturyThis WorldHe ManPaperLawyerTitlesFour YearsClientsEstatesPapersAttorneyAcres Author:Thomas De Witt Talmage
“I've done everything. I've sung, done records, plays... It just so happened my first professional job was as a dancer. I've done the whole shebang, darling. But dancing was my first professional engagement in 1974. I got paid for it, so that was it, my vocation. But my parents weren't keen. They wanted me to be an accountant in Italy. Or a lawyer. They were furious. I had to run away. I had to leave the country.” FirstsCountryDonePlayWholeRunningWantedJobsParentRecordsHappenedPaidDancingLawyerDancerEngagementRunning AwayVocationDarlingFuriousAccountants Author:Bruno Tonioli
