"It's not like a corporate job where the more you accumulate on your resume and the more hours you put in, the higher up you get; it's simply not the case. That being said, if I had known that and known what kind of career I'd get into, I still would have pursued it"

This quote by Jason Marsden talks to the idea that success in the show business is not necessarily based upon the build-up of experience and hours worked. Rather, success in this field is based on the quality of the work and the ability to stand out from the competitors. This quote likewise recommends that even if Marsden had actually known the truths of the show business, he still would have pursued it. This speaks with the enthusiasm and commitment that Marsden has for his profession, and his determination to take risks in order to attain success. Eventually, this quote acts as a suggestion that success in any field needs effort, devotion, and a determination to take dangers.
