My goals aren't really commercial success.

Commercial success certainly helps pay the bills.

Commercial success and quality are not necessarily allied.

I don't really think about the critics or the commercial success.

It's not always about huge giant commercial success. It's about art.

'Cabaret' was the most commercial success that I've been involved in.

I'm an underground mix-tape artist who's had a level of commercial success.

If you make a good film, then there's no harm if it achieves commercial success.

Until 'Bangalore Days' happened, a huge commercial success had not happened to me.

It's pretty hard to make out what's going to be a commercial success and what's not.

I would be humiliated if I found out that anything I did actually became a commercial success.

I don't care about commercial success. I get to do what I love and communicate whatever I want.

Like every one, I too enjoy commercial success but for me it is certainly not the end of world.

I was never writing for commercial success. It's nice that it has come, but it is not important.

I've had lots of commercial success. I've also had some terrible reviews and some wonderful reviews.

Buddha' is my third film but I chose to release 'Hate Story' first because I wanted commercial success.

All record companies want big-selling records, and my music is a little too raw for commercial success.

Yes, I have had more commercial success in Malayalam but that doesn't mean I can't do with more in Tamil.

The commercial success that came with Anjali Menon's 'Bangalore Days' helped me in getting my work noticed.

Rock became an incredible commercial success, people just became bored with serious music, and it was forgotten.

Regardless of what film you make, you want people to watch your film, and you ultimately need commercial success.

When I did have a little bit of commercial success, it really didn't suit my temperament at all. I'm a terrible public person.

We ceased to be a band the moment we made it. It left us with nothing. We felt like a failure although we had commercial success.

You come off the kind of commercial success that 'Rumours' had, and you see that there are limitations to that as well as freedoms.

'Vicky Donor' dealt with a taboo topic, but it was a family entertainer and not cringe-worthy, which helped make it a commercial success.

Singing is my dream and, while it may have not been a commercial success, critically I was thrilled with the reception my first album got.

Commercial success won't come to us from a change in the music. It will gradually be the result of a change in the appetite of the audience.

As far commercial success, I don't think that's a focus but it's not that we don't enjoy that. It's not something you can attempt and achieve.

I never assumed I would have that commercial success, so it was a total surprise. And honestly, I never assumed that it would ever happen again.

I never really think so much about commercial success; I usually just think about records that move me, and 'Baby Got Back' was one that moved me.

It's not necessarily all about commercial success. It's about inspiring in the world and having what you do seen as art and a contribution to the world.

I've rarely gotten a good review in my life, yet, to paraphrase Noel Coward, I am happy to console myself with the bitter palliative of commercial success.

People love Twinkies, and everyone knows about them, yet Hostess went bankrupt. Attention and commercial success have an uncertain relationship in business.

I've got friends who are literally working alone on indie games that have no prospect of profit or commercial success. I've got guys working on iPhone games.

I know a lot of people who have tremendous commercial success and they go directly for it. There's something that has always been difficult about that for me.

It is difficult to survive as an author in Sweden, so for commercial success, it is good idea to write crime, get yourself translated, and live happily ever after.

One of the obvious things that went wrong with Multics as a commercial success was just that it was sort of over-engineered in a sense. There was just too much in it.

Years of imprisoning and beheading writers never succeeded in shutting them out. However, placing them in the heart of a market and rewarding them with a lot of commercial success, has.

When you hold things back, when you don't commit completely to your ideas and trust completely in your own instincts, you are guaranteeing your own failure - even if you end up having commercial success.

What has helped me is my success in commercial cinema. It has given me a platform for others to cast me in their films. If I did not have the commercial success, then I wouldn't be able to do the smaller films.

None of my movies have ever made any money, so it's not about commercial success for me. It's always the same thing. I want to create something valuable, something unusual and different that the world has never seen.

A film has to be for commercial success as well as earn you respect as an artist. You don't want to do only things that are designed to run commercially, and neither do you want to do things that get acclaim but don't run.

Not all are starting from the same line; however, the finishing line is certainly the same. We all have to show how much money our films make or how many awards we win or what critical acclaim and commercial success our films have.

Commercial success still hasn't come to an artist that isn't signed to a record label. There are very few artists that can succeed without the help of a record label. The role of the record label is still required, it's still necessary.

There's only one barometer for the commercial success of a film and that's the box office. The obsession with box office doesn't annoy me. It's the main part of the business, if you get irritated with the main part then you're in trouble.

We're not uncomfortable with it, and we've already been through enough of the music business where I'm not really worried that commercial success is going to in some way - we're already past saving, you know what I mean? It's too late for us.
