I am only limited by the amount of life I have left to capture the ideas I am already working on. Another problem is that I am not sure if I would rather create or collect art. Collecting art is another passion of mine.
— Richard MacDonald
I never had a job. I bought my first house within a year of getting out of school, and I built a custom one four and a half years later. The Art Center didn't teach much about business, but I learned a lot from the Fortune 500 companies that were my clients.
The spirit of the Olympic movement is great for young people because it teaches them about the training and discipline required to compete. Even if they don't make the teams, they can rededicate their lives to the art of sport, discipline, and physical fitness.
— Richard M. Daley
If you want to devote yourself to the arts, you'd better do it strictly from passion, because there is zero guarantee that you'll get anywhere. The hardest thing is dealing with business people who have nothing to do with your art. They could care less that you're up at 4:30 in the morning writing a joke. Don't expect any sympathy from anybody.
— Richard Lewis
As to the differences between game work and novel writing, well, obviously the former is a lot less lonely - you're in and out of meetings all the time, bouncing stuff back and forth with the level designers, the art department, the animation team, so forth.
— Richard K. Morgan
It's really interesting with art-movies too, but art especially - to see how your attitude toward artists and works and your level of appreciation of them is always shifting and changing over the years.
— Richard Hell
One does not devote one's life in art to shock an audience.
— Richard Foreman
War stories deal in death. War illuminates love, while love is the greatest expression of hope, without which any story rings untrue to life. And to deny hope in a story about such darkness is to create false art.
— Richard Flanagan
Balance is the enemy of art.
— Richard Eyre
It may be fine for an artist to be indifferent to the reaction of the viewer to a work of art. A vigorous debate on issues is also beneficial. But the dark vision of a world without truth cannot be our future.
— Richard Edelman
There are risks in the sheer brevity of Twitter, and it's actually quite an elegant art reducing what you have to say to 140 characters, and it's something that I quite enjoy attempting to do.
— Richard Dawkins
I had grown up thinking of movies as something to eat popcorn with. Bergman and the other European directors were the first ones to open my eyes to film as art.
— Richard Corliss
Art saved my life.
— Richard Cabral
Anything is an art if you do it at the level of an art.
— Richard Avedon
The greatest footballers take the sport into the world of art, of performance.
— Richard Ashcroft
I would wake up at night and think, 'What the hell have I gotten myself into? You don't want to do that!' But you gotta do something, and with art, there's freedom - which is actually very seldom practiced by artists.
— Richard Artschwager
I just want to have folks be comfortable and just share and have a good conversation. To me, that's kind of a lost art.
— Rich Eisen
These guys are just flying through the air and I'm capturing them in the split second and putting it into a work of art, via clay to the bronze.
China is important to the world in that they are a force and on the move. Exposing them to figurative art opens up a potential for artistic expression far greater than anyone would ever have dreamed possible until today. It is this very spirit of the struggle and determination to triumph that inspires creative expression.
As a species, we are most animated when our days and nights on Earth are touched by the natural world. We can find immeasurable joy in the birth of a child, a great work of art, or falling in love.
— Richard Louv
More people are exposed to movies than to most other forms of art.
— Richard King
The lover of nature has the highest art in his soul.
— Richard Jefferies
There is no work of art that has ever been made that is absolutely truthful about life.
The art of living your life has a lot to do with getting over loss. The less the past haunts you, the better.
— Richard Ford
I'm the classic example of alienation: I grew up in a middle-class household without art or books. I was going to be a chemical engineer until I went to the theatre for the first time at 16 and was blown away by it.
A brief visit to Nepal started my insatiable love for Asian art.
— Richard Ernst
I don't know what its like for most actors, but really clearly for myself acting has always been the fulfilment of personal fantasies. It isn't just art, its about being a person I've always wanted to be, or being in a situation, or being a hero.
— Richard Dreyfuss
I'm quite a softy, yes. I have a blank spot with respect to visual art, but I have perhaps a compensating hypersensitivity to poetry and music.
Hollywood was born schizophrenic. For 75 years it has been both a town and a state of mind, an industry and an art form.
We need more theatres, more art and more culture in this country.
— Richard Briers
I think all art is about control - the encounter between control and the uncontrollable.
'Bitter Sweet Symphony' is one of the greatest pieces of modern art created by anyone. I'm not blowing my own trumpet here.
If the kids like it, my fans like it - whoever this music pertains to, if they like it, it's for them. That's what this art is for.
— Rich the Kid
I'm really about seeing people and art for what they are. Like, seeing people as humans and seeing art.
— Rich Brian
My goal is to make fine art, and fine art comes from the soul. If you have virtuosity and facility, you can take and create something of significance.
I'm also interested in creating a lasting legacy for collectors because bronze will last for thousands of years so I'm not really selling the art to this particular collector but it is being passed on.
It's disappointing to see films become pure entertainment, so that it's not an art form.
— Richard Linklater
Movies are an art form that is very available to the masses.
Simplicity, clarity, singleness: These are the attributes that give our lives power and vividness and joy as they are also the marks of great art. They seem to be the purpose of God for his whole creation.
— Richard Holloway
Which implies that the real issue in art is the audience's response. Now I claim that when I make things, I don't care about the audience's response, I'm making them for myself. But I'm making them for myself as audience, because I want to wake myself up.
'The Bradshaws' is the appropriately inappropriate English title given to an enigma - some hundreds of thousands of mysterious rock art paintings scattered through the wilds of the Kimberley, an area larger than Germany in the remote, scarcely populated northwest of Australia.
Art is about the 'I' in life not the 'we', about private life rather than public. A public life that doesn't acknowledge the private is a life not worth having.
Talking points are a core set of messages an executive or politician utilizes in communicating with stakeholders. It's a term of art for having an outline of your remarks.
The usefulness of science is sometimes exaggerated. You'd never talk about music being useful or art being useful.
The very large brain that humans have, plus the things that go along with it - language, art, science - seemed to have evolved only once. The eye, by contrast, independently evolved 40 times. So, if you were to 'replay' evolution, the eye would almost certainly appear again, whereas the big brain probably wouldn't.
Through sharing my pain, I can possibly heal your pain. There is no other feeling like it. Money doesn't compare. This is the true meaning of art.
The art of delegation is one of the key skills any entrepreneur must master.
— Richard Branson
What I am sad about is that there is now, in America, no equivalent to the art circuit.
— Richard Attenborough
There isn't any art until some creature sees and consumes it. And has a reaction.
I went to Cal Arts. I went to art school.
— Rich Moore
