Billing Quotes
Who gets the credit, and who gets the bill.
Billing covers more than invoices here; these quotes also weigh who deserves top screen credit, from actors named up front to writers arguing they've earned equal standing with directors. That fits neatly with our Actor quotes collection on recognition in film.

From the law firm's perspective, billing by the hour has a certain appeal: it shifts risk from the firm to the client in case the work takes longer than expected. But from a client's perspective, it doesn't work so well. It gives lawyers an incentive to overstaff and to overresearch cases.

I act for love. I give it my all. I would probably still do it even if I wasn't paid at all. But in terms of equal pay, I need to be paid the same as the guy who has equal billing with me. Otherwise, I won't do it. Because if you accept less, you're just letting everyone else down and continuing the cycle.
