Actor Quotes

My first part was in a film where I played a sadomasochist who killed people and created fun orgies. I’m a method actor. I went to every orgy in the world Picture Quote #1

Broadway was without doubt the hardest I ever worked in my life and the highest highs I’ve ever had as an actor. The unadulterated fear was on a level that was hard to explain Picture Quote #1

I haven’t aged into a character actor. I’m an old leading man Picture Quote #1

Age is as much an asset for character players as it is for good wine. Human experiences, both good and bad, leave their marks on one’s face and bearing. A few lines on the face and a few gray hairs coupled with the idiosyncrasies an actor adopts throughout life help out round out the actor’s personality. So far as I’m concerned, the older a character actor gets, the firmer his position is Picture Quote #1

I stay away from the elf roles; I stay away from playing a leprechaun. All the roles I try to do are something that an average actor would do Picture Quote #1

If you’re a song writer, it’s a bit different because you are expressing your own words, feelings, perspective. As an actor, you are doing your best to interpret and express the root of the character’s perspective which have been established by the writer. There are parallels of performing. Tapping into your own emotional piggy bank. The biggest commonality is if you are successful in either industry, you get free snacks all the time Picture Quote #1

It was always my dream to be a director. A lot of it had to do with controlling my own destiny, because as a young actor you feel at everyone’s disposal. But I wanted to become a leader in the business Picture Quote #1

To be a great actor you just need to comprehend, so that’s why I became a writer Picture Quote #1

The best thing as an actor, the best tool you have is your imagination. That you kind of take things that have happened, and then go and expand on them.

I kind of knew it wasn’t going to be until my 30s that I really hit my stride as an actor Picture Quote #1

I am good when there is something central about the character. There is always a human theme I attach myself to. I am really looking for something that is moving or enlightening or something with depth as an actor. I look for these kinds of roles Picture Quote #1

As an actor, you know, I love not being pigeonholed, which is great. No one really knows who I am. So that’s a positive Picture Quote #1

It doesn’t matter if you’re good. If you’re just good, you won’t succeed. If you have patience and persistence and talent and that’s it, you will not have a successful career as an actor. The elusive thing you need is luck Picture Quote #1

I’m so proud of the time I put in the pool, so proud of the people I met along way, just to be asked to do this was exciting for me.
