Michael Eisner
"If you can't tell a story, you can own the television station, you can own the radio station, you can own the satellite. You'd better find somebody to tell a story or you're not going to own it for very long."
Person

Leonard H. Goldenson

"When I acquired ABC, everyone in the motion picture companies had refused to deal with television, but Walt Disney wanted to build Disneyland and he needed money. I made up my mind that I was going to do everything in our power to bring Disney into television. If I could crack Disney, then I could maybe crack the other motion picture companies."

Person

William Blinn

"It's not enough just to tell the truth.  Then you're doing the History Channel. There's something to be said for that, but it may not always be compelling. And it's not enough just to be interesting, because then you're doing Paris Hilton and her elephant. You know it'll be interesting, but it's cotton candy. If you can tell the truth in an interesting way, then you accomplished something."

Person

Aaron Ruben
"I'm certainly proud to have been at the beginnings of The Andy Griffith Show. Andy gives me more credit than I deserve because he's quoted about how I set the style for that show. I don't know. I'm just glad I was there and was an important part of the structuring of the show. I nurtured it and nursed it and I thought I took really good care of it. It was five of the best years of my life in the business."
Person

Robert Culp
"...On opening night, the lights hit me and I went backstage and sat  behind the flats, listening.  Not to the people onstage. I knew what they were saying. To the audience. I had never experienced that before. It was alive. I had never been so thrilled in my life. I never stopped working as an actor from then on."
Person

Walter Bernstein

"You have to be true to yourself, to what you believe in. You have to have a bottom line. You have to have some place beyond which you know you can't be pushed. It's not politics. It's morality."

Person

Walter Cronkite
"Man landing on the moon was the great story of our century, I believe.  The great single story of the [20th] century was man escaping his earthly environment and landing on a distant orb in that fashion."
Person

Lee Grant

"I have made some very, very good and tough documentaries that have changed some things. And coming from my blacklisted background, where I was unable to do so much for so long, the ability to take this journey into situations and people's lives and to give them my letter to the world, is a very important part for me. And of course, I love directing films, too."
