Everything is getting bigger. The way to go now is to program in a little more sophistication.
Bill Budge

Hip is the sophistication of the wise primitive in a giant jungle.
Norman Mailer

I don't think there has been any increase in sophistication in the audience. When people are aware of a concept that's easy to understand, and there's an actor who will attract them to the theater and it's a movie that's funny three-quarters of the time, it will be successful.
David Zucker

I don't understand why Europeans and South Americans can take more sophistication. Why is it that Americans need to hear their happiness major and their tragedy minor, and as jazzy as they can handle is a seventh chord? Are they not experiencing complex emotions?
Joni Mitchell

I have always thought of sophistication as rather a feeble substitute for decadence.
Christopher Hampton

In other cases, when the medium becomes entranced, the demonstration of a communicator's separate intelligence may become stronger and the sophistication less.
Oliver Joseph Lodge

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
Leonardo da Vinci

Sophistication might be described as the ability to cope gracefully with a situation involving the presence of a formidable menace to one's poise and prestige (such as the butler, or the man under the bed - but never the husband).
James Thurber

The amount of sophistication varies according to the quality of the medium, and to the state of the same medium at different times; it must be attributed in the best cases physiologically to the medium, intellectually to the control.
Oliver Joseph Lodge

The expansion and sophistication of transnational crime represents one of the most dangerous threats we confront in the next millennium.
Rand Beers

The spirit's foe in man has not been simplicity, but sophistication.
George Santayana

The true face of smoking is disease, death and horror - not the glamour and sophistication the pushers in the tobacco industry try to portray.
David Byrne

There is more sophistication and less sense in New York than anywhere else on the globe.
Don Herold

There's a higher place that I have no illusions about reaching. There's a sophistication and aesthetic about composers who only write only for the music's sake.
Bill Conti

When I decided to get married at 40, I couldn't find a dress with the modernity or sophistication I wanted. That's when I saw the opportunity for a wedding gown business.
Vera Wang
