I have no idea what the audience makes of me.
Keith Richards

Listen, wait, and be patient. Every shaman knows you have to deal with the fire that's in your audience's eye.
Ken Kesey

If it's a good movie, the sound could go off and the audience would still have a perfectly clear idea of what was going on.
Alfred Hitchcock

I am a typed director. If I made Cinderella, the audience would immediately be looking for a body in the coach.
Alfred Hitchcock

I do not write for an audience.
Leon Uris

And even Moonstruck - for some reason the audience were just in the mood for a very romantic film, because it's one of the few romantic comedies to be nominated for a Best Picture Oscar.
Norman Jewison

You can try to reach an audience, but you just write what comes out of you and you just hope that it is accepted. You do not write specifically to a generation.
Leon Uris

At male strip shows, it is still the women that we watch, the audience of women and their eager faces. They are more obscene than if they were dancing naked themselves.
Jean Baudrillard

Musicals are, by nature, theatrical, meaning poetic, meaning having to move the audience's imagination and create a suspension of disbelief, by which I mean there's no fourth wall.
Stephen Sondheim

I firmly believe lyrics have to breathe and give the audience's ear a chance to understand what's going on. Particularly in the theater, where you have costume, story, acting, orchestra.
Stephen Sondheim

Musicals are plays, but the last collaborator is your audience, so you've got to wait 'til the last collaborator comes in before you can complete the collaboration.
Stephen Sondheim

When the audience comes in, it changes the temperature of what you've written.
Stephen Sondheim

I'm always shy in front of an audience, so I'm always at the back, in the shadows, just doing it. I don't like the front, the adulation.
Bill Wyman

The Golden Girls certainly proved that there was a large audience for a show about older women.
Marlo Thomas

I need to talk about Chinese culture. We have deep, strong philosophy and culture. I want to share some information, tell the worldwide audience.
Jet Li

The audience likes their emotions to be touched. They want to laugh and cry and feel good.
Magic Johnson

I think it's been a little difficult at times for the audience, because they've told me they see me as a family member. So to see your little sister sing about sex... I think they are pretty used to it now.
Janet Jackson

I'm not sure why no one wants to admit there's a viable audience out there that believes in God and wants to see a movie with their family. The demand is there. The supply is not.
Tyler Perry

I know my audience, and they're not people that the studios know anything about.
Tyler Perry

It is not whether you really cry. It's whether the audience thinks you are crying.
Ingrid Bergman
