At this point, I can't say what network would be picking it up, but I know that it would be a success.

I don't pity any man who does hard work worth doing. I admire him. I pity the creature who does not work, at whichever end of the social scale he may regard himself as being.

I love what I'm doing most of the time, but it's hard work. People only see your albums in the charts. They see us at award shows and after-show parties. They don't know about your doubts, the hard work that goes in.

I don't know any musician who got to the top without hard work. Take whoever you want. They all work bloody hard, harder than you think.

We can do things the cheap way, the simple way, for the short-term and without regard for the future. Or, we can make the extra effort, do the hard work, absorb the criticism and make decisions that will cause a better future.

Hard work keeps the wrinkles out of the mind and spirit.

Writing is far too hard work to say what someone else wants me to. Serving it as a craft, using it as a way of growing in my own understanding, seems to me to be a beautiful way to live. And if that product is shareable with other people, so much the better.

I got a nomination for director, which means the world to me; it's just the most exciting thing for me and my family. You do the good hard work, and the rest of it is something you shouldn't get too caught up in, but when it happens - boy! I respect it.

It was really fun. It was fun for a lot of reasons. It was fun because nobody thought that we would be successful. It was on a network that wasn't even there at the time.

It was a JOB; the video show was a JOB; you don't tell the Aristocrats joke at 8 o'clock at night on network tv, it would be funny though. But those guys know I like dirty stuff, I like clean stuff too.

If I went in to pitch this show to a network, I would be laughed out of the room.

I stayed away from mathematics not so much because I knew it would be hard work as because of the amount of time I knew it would take, hours spent in a field where I was not a natural.

For every two minutes of glamour, there are eight hours of hard work.

My goal was to be a network correspondent by the time I was 30.

It is a warning to all those who may think about becoming involved with a terrorist network, people who are willing to destroy their own lives are hard to deter.

When you start out in a team, you have to get the teamwork going and then you get something back.

The support that we have from the network in terms of watching us at an unusual time in the year and playing our episodes three times in a given week until we built an audience... is exceptional.

People think I must have been so talented at an early age, but I don't know - was it talent or hard work? Who knows?

I don't think that Yahoo or any other Internet company should try to become a television network. We will be nowhere if we have to create our own content.

Dealing with network executives is like being nibbled to death by ducks.
