Famous quotes containing the words world and/or producers:

    “O, I have passed a miserable night,
    So full of fearful dreams, of ugly sights,
    That, as I am a Christian faithful man,
    I would not spend another such a night
    Though ‘twere to buy a world of happy days,
    So full of dismal terror was the time.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “When producers want to know what the public wants, they graph it as curves. When they want to tell the public what to get, they say it in curves.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
