That's what show business is--sincere insincerity.
--
Quoted in The Observer (12 June 1977)Benny Hill
There is no business like show business, Irving Berlin once proclaimed, and thirty years ago he may have been right, but not anymore. Nowadays almost every business is like show business, including politics, which has become more like show business than show business is.
Russell Baker
The nearer emotional life approaches to hysteria, to continual outward show, the less genuine it becomes. Feeling becomes equated with vehemence of expression, so that insincerity becomes permanent.
Anthony Daniels
I am in show business. I don't, for a minute, ever forget that this is a business that I'm involved in, and it plays by business' rules.
Harrison Ford
One’s moviegoing tastes and habits change — I still like in movies what I always liked but now, for example, I really want documentaries. After all the years of stale stupid acted-out stories, with less and less for me in them, I am desperate to know something, desperate for facts, for information, for faces of non-actors and for knowledge of how people live — for revelations, not for the little bits of show-business detail worked up for us by show-business minds who got them from the same movies we’re tired of.
Pauline Kael
Little Richard was a one-of-a-kind show business genius. He influenced so many people in the business.
