Then you get to an age where what you might be gives way to what you have been. You weren’t Einstein. You weren’t anything. That’s a bad moment  (Chuck Barris Quotes) If you stick in the business of being creative, you get hurt. And creative disappointment seems so much harder to take than any other kind.

Certainly game shows aren’t. I don’t watch reality shows at all.  (Chuck Barris Quotes) There’s tons of creative people in television that have one failure after another, and they just step up higher.

When I had a failure, there was no such thing as just getting over it.  (Chuck Barris Quotes) Spontaneity is such an entertaining facet of show business  (Chuck Barris Quotes) Fifty percent of something is better than than one hundred percent of nothing  (Chuck Barris Quotes) One piece of pie is delicious. Fourteen pieces are obviously nauseating  (Chuck Barris Quotes) There’s tons of creative people in television that have one failure after another, and they just step up higher. I could never get over that. When I had a failure, there was no such thing as just getting over it  (Chuck Barris Quotes) Helplessness is such a rotten feeling. There’s nothing you can do about it. Being helpless is like being paralyzed. It’s sickness. The cure calls for a monumental effort to stand up and start walking somewhere, anywhere. But that takes some doing  (Chuck Barris Quotes)
