Text Quotes
I know there are some actors who are just brilliant at improvising and brilliant at just being in the moment and doing it there and then. I’m not one of those actors.  (Actors Quotes) When you’re still, and some actors are really brilliant at that, you bring a kind of energy to you as opposed to sending the energy out. There are some actors, like Gary Cooper or Kevin Spacey, that are absolutely brilliant - Gene Hackman is another - at being and allowing the audience to just do the work.  (Actors Quotes) I loved ‘Pulling.’ It was so original and hilarious. I remember being very sad when it finished. I’d love to start a campaign to bring it back, but if I did, the actors would probably say, ‘We’re fine. We’re all really busy, thanks. Please don’t!’  (Actors Quotes) I’ve never had any illusions about being a lead actor in films, because lead actors have to be of a certain kind.  (Actors Quotes) People have always tut-tutted about actors stepping out of line politically. And I can sort of see it because what you’ve got your fame for is not being someone who can influence things, so it’s cheating.  (Actors Quotes) I had a hard time treating my field as if it’s horse racing, putting actors in competition against each other. I see how the industry and the studios feel it’s important, but I don’t really have a feeling for being in competition. I want to feel sympathetic and close to others, not opposed to them.  (Actors Quotes) We all hope we have something else to do. We’re going to be unemployed actors. It’s a consistent state of being a professional actor, in my experience.  (Actors Quotes) Sometimes some of the best moments are contributed by the actors being creative, with their own improvisations.  (Actors Quotes) Actors live dependent on being validated by other people’s opinions. I don’t understand what it is I do that people want. I don’t know what an actor does. I have no credentials. I don’t know what I’m doing.  (Actors Quotes) You hear about actors being late and all that sort of stuff, but you never find that with an actor who’s directed, because an actor who’s directed understands all the problems your production is going through.  (Actors Quotes) I began acting at age eight, but if you don’t stay on your game then people pass on you. Being on a show, it’s a little easy to get comfortable, so I’m trying to get back on it. I’m taking some acting classes and watching movies, and I’m just trying to stay up with other actors.  (Actors Quotes) The deepest change begins with men raising children as much as women do and women being equal actors in the world outside the home.  (Actors Quotes) I’ve seen so many excellent actors - excellent actors - who, the minute they’re told they’re in a comedy, turn into God knows what - creatures from another planet! I mean they just... the voice changes, they don’t look the same, it’s like - it has no similarity to any living human being, do you know what I mean?  (Actors Quotes) It’s hard to get those roles that allow you to show everything and feel like you’re really being used and exhausted and spent, which I think is what actors really love: We want to be tired.  (Actors Quotes) I don’t see that many plays, and for me, musicals are rarely pleasing. I feel the actors are being put through a kind of nightmarish labor. They’re like animals being forced to pull heavy carts of vegetables at incredible speeds.  (Actors Quotes) Actors have an innate sense of self and humanity, the good ones do, and of being generous of heart and generous of spirit.  (Actors Quotes) What I do quite honestly and seriously and not in any way being humble is not as important as what the garbage collector does. People make actors important.  (Actors Quotes) I don’t feel that I was often compartmentalized as an African-American actor, yet I am fully aware of the plight that actors, directors and producers of color face in our industry. I choose to focus on being proactive in creating opportunities for myself and others while acknowledging that we are not playing on a level playing field.  (Actors Quotes) I’ve been shocked by film actors - 25 and under - having such confidence and cockiness to rewrite a scene. My background is more about the director being in control. It’s all about yielding. It’s an oddly submissive relationship in which you’re moulded, Pygmalion-style.  (Actors Quotes) I think there’s a very fine line between the type of performing that some actors do, and being in a state in your mind where you actually believe what’s going on. If we weren’t actors, what would we do with that ability? Would we not be slightly insane? Mentally ill? I don’t know.  (Actors Quotes) I love working with actors. I love to see what they’re going to do. There’s just something very thrilling and satisfying with being involved with something, all the way through the process [making movie].  (Actors Quotes) I think the first thing is don’t give up. If you love the craft. If you love being a detective and discovering who a character is and the detail of how they walk and what kind of shoes they wear and what did they do yesterday and what’s important to them. I definitely advise actors to learn about the craft.  (Actors Quotes) I’ve learned a lot about what kind of actor I want or do not want to be while being on set. I sit back and observe how other actors treat the totem pole of set politics.  (Actors Quotes) One of the great joys of being able to write something you can make, if you get certain actors you want and love, you’re kind of buying yourself a front row seat to watch them work.  (Actors Quotes) Collaboration to me is... my favorite collaboration in the theatre is the collaboration between the actors and the audience because it’s just that thing that happens when the only thing left that is left on the human scale is that human beings come to look at other human beings act out stories.  (Actors Quotes) Child actors come off as work being their life and doing it 24/7, but I still have those days where it’s totally, like, whatever: shopping, movies, adventures.  (Actors Quotes) Actors fall into this trap if they missed being loved for who they really were and not for what they could do - sing, dance, joke about - then they take that as love.  (Actors Quotes) I am pretty sure that all young human beings have, at one time or another in their growing-up, been actors. They have used their imaginations to carry them away from painful or confusing situations... have imagined themselves to be more powerful or beautiful or brave or loving than they are.  (Actors Quotes) Actors use who they are to be someone else, but I would hate to ever think I’m playing myself. It’s imagining being someone else that is the key motivating thing for me. So when people want to know about me, it makes me a bit unnerved.  (Actors Quotes) I think that I need to work on being comfortable at being normal, everyday-ish on camera. Unlike a lot of actors, I think that’s the thing that I’m not so comfortable with.  (Actors Quotes)
