Quote by Maynard James Keenan

The record company's worst fear is that you'll fall in love or get rich.

The record company's worst fear is that you'll fall in love

Summary

This quote suggests that the record company, or any entity in the entertainment industry, is apprehensive about artists finding personal happiness or financial success. The implication is that external factors such as love or wealth may distract or shift an artist's focus away from their commitment to their career or the music industry's interests. This fear may arise from concerns that their artist's priorities could change, potentially affecting their commercial viability or willingness to conform to the company's expectations. It highlights the industry's emphasis on continuous dedication and financial profitability over personal fulfillment and success outside of music.

Every night, half an hour before curtain up, the bells of St. Malachy's, the Actors' Chapel on New York's 49th Street, peal the tune of 'There's No Business Like Show Business.'
