Actor Quotes

It’s like playing tennis, you play a different rally with different people. Every actor is different and the chemistry between actors is different Picture Quote #1

Being unemployed is not good for an actor. No, it isn’t, no matter how unsuccessful you are. Because you always remember getting fired from all the restaurants. You remember that stuff very, very strongly Picture Quote #1

Oh yes. I’m an actor, so I just learn my lines, and show up and do it. I gave it a little bit of thought Picture Quote #1

I’m an actor who believes we all have triggers to any stage of emotion. It’s not always easy to find but it’s still there Picture Quote #1

Many of us go through life feeling as an actor might feel who does not like his part and does not believe in the play Picture Quote #1

It is better to be making the news than taking it, to be an actor rather than a critic Picture Quote #1

This whole creation is essentially subjective, and the dream is the theater where the dreamer is at once: scene, actor, prompter, stage manager, author, audience, and critic Picture Quote #1

I’ve always felt that I would rather see an actor, writer, or musician’s work, rather than actually know the person. If you know too much about an artist, it somehow lessens their ability to do their work as well Picture Quote #1

Singers come and go, but if you’re a good actor, you can last a long time Picture Quote #1

I certainly direct with confidence even if I’m not confident. I learned early on as an actor that confidence can be faked, and it’s not always a terrible thing to do. A lot of times if people feel you’re confident, then they’re confident Picture Quote #1

When you first start out as an actor, you’re just looking for a good part. As time goes on, if you’re being held responsible for the movies themselves, you’re looking for a good script all around Picture Quote #1

I got an agent when I was 12, and I started working in more amateur productions well before that. But even as a kid, I never felt like a kid actor, you know? I always took myself kind of absurdly seriously Picture Quote #1

My first offer was when I was 12, and it was for a soap opera. And I turned it down because I knew that I was an unformed actor, and I didn’t want to develop bad habits Picture Quote #1

I always wanted to be normal. I tried really hard, but it’s like I try so hard and then people still say I’m offbeat. I’ve learnt to accept that and take advantage of it as an actor Picture Quote #1

I guess any movie actor can become a role model for audiences out there who enjoy him Picture Quote #1

They’ve got this crazy actor who’s 82 years old up there in a suit. I was a mayor, and they’re probably thinking I know how to give a speech, but even when I was mayor I never gave speeches. I gave talks Picture Quote #1

One sign of a great actor is when he can be alone by himself on the screen, doing almost nothing, and producing one of a film’s defining moments Picture Quote #1

As an actor, you have to be open to doing things where you look stupid, to be experimental Picture Quote #1

As an actor, you try to bring as much of yourself to a part to try and create a feeling of authenticity and emotional truth and resonance Picture Quote #1

The frustrating part of being a movie actor is waiting in your trailer to do two takes of a scene you’ve prepared for two months Picture Quote #1

As an actor, you are in a unique position because you’re not only memorizing dialogue but really embodying it. You naturally feel the rhythm of good writing Picture Quote #1

Any actor working a long time should know how a shot is set up, where to place themselves, how to handle the lines. I’m a member of the crew, like the best boy, the electrician. What I’m good at is making eyes at the camera Picture Quote #1

As an actor, I’m always playing solitary characters. But as a director, I’m always making ensemble movies, which focus on lots of people’s lives and how they intertwine Picture Quote #1

I don’t have a burning desire to act, strangely enough. I don’t know that if I hadn’t been an actor as a young person, I don’t know that I ever would have chosen this because it’s not really my personality Picture Quote #1

Advertisements

The knighthood was a tremendous honour, I don’t dismiss it. But I feel embarrassed by the flowery, theatrical stuff that goes with being an actor Picture Quote #1

My gosh, I love food. If I wasn’t an actor, I could be a completely different body shape right now Picture Quote #1

Part of the reason of being an actor is you like playing other people’s lives and exploring all the psychologies in that and the emotions Picture Quote #1

I think I probably think about myself as an actor, which is the way most people do. I think I’m good, I don’t think I’m great. I think I would hire somebody else to play me in the movie about me Picture Quote #1

The hardest thing in acting is going from child actor to adult actor. It’s taken me a long time Picture Quote #1

If people perceive you as a good actor then they’ll wish for you to be a good actor and they’ll root for you when they watch you, but if you come out and you’re going to clubs every night people don’t root for you anymore Picture Quote #1
