The New York Times interviewed 27 actors, directors, writers and producers about their experiences seeking equality in the entertainment world. The interviews were excerpted in a 2016 feature called What It's Really Like to Work in Hollywood.* (*If you're not a straight white man.) 

Which of these quotes hits closest home for you?

"The head of casting said, 'I couldn't put you in a Shakespeare movie, because they didn't have black people then.' He literally said that."

FYC
I found it a bit long and work to get through. I like the idea, but this might work better by consolidating similar themes with the simplest quotes. The best 15 quotes might be a good target to be viable for most poll takers to complete.

'Wonderful poll! There are so many great quotes, it will take me time to deliberate. Bravo, though, on both the content and presenting the content well.

I'd suggest putting NYTImes in itallics and the name of the feature in double quotation marks, but it's no big deal.
