All the technology of our production was still pre-War. They were sort of ’38, ’39 and the War had been stable and so we were infinitely behind whatever had been going on in the United States for instance. – Gianni Agnelli
When I tell my American counterparts that my budget was $200,000 per episode, they burst out laughing. To us that’s a big production, to them it’s a guerrilla shoot. – Gideon Raff
In the writing of memoirs, as in the production of shows, too much caution causes the audience to nod and think of other channels. – Gerald Clarke
Between Scott on the earlier side and Dickens and Thackeray on the other, there was an immense production of novels, illustrated by not a few names which should rank high in the second class, while some would promote more than one of them to the first. – George Saintsbury
The BBC were not playing the music that was happening on the street so we did an independent production because we knew we had an audience. Then we licensed the album to EMI. – Georgie Fame
Capital is a result of labor, and is used by labor to assist it in further production. Labor is the active and initial force, and labor is therefore the employer of capital. – Henry George
Open source production has shown us that world-class software, like Linux and Mozilla, can be created with neither the bureaucratic structure of the firm nor the incentives of the marketplace as we’ve known them. – Howard Rheingold
I get offers to do huge-budget music videos with big production companies all the time, but I have no interest. – Grimes
I’ve had my run-ins with department stores, like Harrods, which stopped selling fur coats, but I found some there with fur trim, which is just as disgusting. Foie gras production is appalling – there’s no excuse for selling it. – Joanna Lumley
I can’t get enough of this guy called Baths. He’s a total L.A. dude and really young as well. It’s super-electronic, but with almost Hall & Oates-style songwriting. Without the context of the production, it could be super-cheesy, but it has amazing harmonies. – Jamie Cullum
There are only a few TV networks that really invest in production in the way that I think they should. HBO, obviously, is one of them. – James Purefoy
In societies where modern conditions of production prevail, all of life presents itself as an immense accumulation of spectacles. Everything that was directly lived has moved away into a representation. – Guy Debord
It never ceases to amaze me what it takes to develop and bring to mass production a product. – Jonathan Ive
What makes the production of my work so expensive? The whole installation thing – the construction, the objects, the technology. It really adds up. – Barbara Kruger

Pakistan has dozens of laboratories and production and storage sites scattered across the country. After developing warheads with highly enriched uranium, it has more recently tried to do the same with more-powerful and compact plutonium. – Barton Gellman
Import and substituting imports with domestic production are a big opportunity. With a devaluation of the rupee, imports get expensive, and for Indian manufacturers, this creates a huge opportunity. – Baba Kalyani
The consumption and production of energy is a major component of the global economy. – Barry Ritholtz
Production and consumption of carbohydrates is so well regulated that there is a constant blood sugar level; any accidental increase or fall in blood sugar is rapidly compensated. – Bernardo Houssay
The idea of doing a production of ‘Carousel’ that doesn’t feel like it’s stuck in the 1950s really intrigues me. – Aaron Lazar
This programme would only really make sense and work properly if it was also broadcast on France’s international television channel TV5. So I ended up with a double production, on France 2 and TV5. – Bernard Pivot
