Chemistry is not anything an executive producer or writer can orchestrate or plan; you just hope for it.
David E. Kelley

Consumption is the sole end and purpose of all production; and the interest of the producer ought to be attended to, only so far as it may be necessary for promoting that of the consumer.
Adam Smith

Dan Curtis, our producer, has the idea that people like to see a stock company of actors.
Thayer David

Every man is a consumer, and ought to be a producer. He is by constitution expensive, and needs to be rich.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

For a director and a producer to be named on the writing credits is practically unheard of.
Terry Southern

From my experience as an actor, choreographer, action director, and producer, I understand the elements and the dynamics of being a film maker.
Donnie Yen

Having been an actress before becoming a producer has helped, because I realize the needs.
Shelley Duvall

He makes me laugh, Mick! He tended to turn up when we were having lunch and entertain us all. He bought an Enigma machine! I've never worked with a producer who was more famous than everyone put together.
Saffron Burrows

He's a good tough producer, yes. But I don't think that he's unreasonable unless he feels threatened. And when somebody's in your home, I think everybody in the home gets threatened.
Liza Minnelli

He's a TV producer, a theatrical impresario, and he wants to be treated as Mr. Windsor but when the going gets rough he wants to be treated like a member of the Royal Family.
Andrew Morton

I am an old, old friend of Aaron Sorkin's, who is the executive producer and writer. He had been talking about doing a political show for a long time and I had been interested in it for a long time. The moment I became available, he called me last year and asked me if I wanted to do it and then I just had to audition for the powers that be, and I got it.
Bradley Whitford

I am more a friend of art than a producer of painting.
Paul Cezanne

I became producer so that I could work with persons like him and to rock the world of Hong Kong Cinema a bit.
Andy Lau

I came to New York to be an actor and I became a film producer first.
Griffin Dunne

I can meet any producer in Hollywood and look them in the eye, knowing I didn't sleep with them, or do drugs with them.
Morgan Brittany

I can't really recall the first time I was noticed by a producer but the first time I was on television was doing Daytime for Another World, which I started in December '75 and went until December '76.
Ted Shackelford

I can't wait to work for Rick Kaplan. He's a great producer. I would host an infomercial if he would produce it.
Tucker Carlson

I did a record with a producer, and the good producers eat up the budget, so I didn't have any budget left to produce this record. I had to produce it myself.
Sean Lennon

I did a series called Ned and Stacey for two years for Fox back in the 90s. I was writer on it as well as a producer, and it was very important to me that there were no contemporary references.
Thomas Haden Church

I discovered early in my movie work that a movie is never any better than the stupidest man connected with it. There are times when this distinction may be given to the writer or director. Most often it belongs to the producer.
