“A long apprenticeship is the most logical way to success. The only alternative is overnight stardom, but I can't give you a formula for that.”

“No one as ever completed their apprenticeship.”
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“I had always said to myself that forty was the cut off point of my apprenticeship which may for some people sound like a very long one, but the novel as art is a middle-aged art.”
Jane Rule
“It was tough, there was no silver spoon in the mouth. I did a five-year apprenticeship starting at 14. You have to prove yourself. They throw you a bit of meat on the bone and if you handle it you go on.”
Douglas Whyte
“I have the stardom glow.”
Jennifer Lopez
“There are many things in life that will catch your eye, but only a few will catch your heart...pursue those.”
Michael Nolan
“The last three years have been insane, you know, just insane,' he says of his rapid rise to stardom. 'I just stay at the same pace. There's madness in the world around me, sure. There's nothing I can do about that. I just work as hard as I can work and play as hard as I can play.”
Colin Farrell
