Great Character Quotes

Between New York and L.A., and all of us who are actors, I feel like we’re just one big, cast repertory company, all running back and forth between the coasts and between different shows. There is a wealth of great character actors, who show up, here and there, on different shows. I love the fact that we’re allowed to do that Picture Quote #1

I’m character-driven. If it’s a great character and something different; because I find that a lot of the times you do get pigeon-holed, you do get the same characters over and over again because that’s what producers are comfortable with. They’ve seen you do it, they know you can do it. I’m kind of getting a little stir crazy Picture Quote #1

Honestly, when you think of any great action hero or any great hero out there or great character actor, you kind of transcend the character. You just don’t love the character, you love the guy. In any of the great action stars, you see the guy doing the work Picture Quote #1

[With] this show [This Is Us], I don’t think I was seeking something outside of the world I’d always played in so much as I’m ruled by characters. If it’s a great character, I’m invested. It doesn’t matter what the genre, what the storyline, anything Picture Quote #1

I like good stories. Quality products and character are what’s important. Even if the script isn’t that strong, if I challenge myself with a great character, I’ll go for it Picture Quote #1

In every soap, at the end of the season, relationships end and people leave the show. You look at characters and evaluate whether they’re great characters or not, and whether they have a future in the show. And we did all of that Picture Quote #1

It’s funny how the ruthless, murderous gangster has really been romanticized by the media. I mean, I grew up watching the ‘Godfathers’ and ‘Scarface,’ and they were the coolest. They’re just really interesting stories with great characters. They’re rock stars Picture Quote #1

Inspector Rebus is a great character, so when the opportunity came up to revive the role for ‘BBC Children in Need,’ and really have a bit of fun with it, I was happy to take part Picture Quote #1

I played a little bit of ‘City of Heroes’ - they have a really great character generation system. I was pretty impressed with that. I played ‘World of Warcraft’ with my kids. That’s a lot of fun Picture Quote #1

I gotta say, Pluto is such a great character, and if I ever got to work with him, I’d be very happy. The scene where he gets caught in fly paper, he’s such a great dog! Picture Quote #1

Everyone loves the seventies because that’s when movies were character-based, and you saw great characters and you saw very interesting filmmaking. There are interesting movies being made now, but it’s harder and harder to make them Picture Quote #1

Ralph Angel was such a great character. The single-father image has been portrayed in so many ways so having the ability to be a part of that narrative excites me! Picture Quote #1

I’m a very great non-violent character. I would never resort to violence to change anything Picture Quote #1

The best portraits are perhaps those in which there is a slight mixture of caricature; and we are not certain that the best histories are not those in which a little of the exaggeration of fictitious narrative is judiciously employed. Something is lost in accuracy; but much is gained in effect. The fainter lines are neglected; but the great characteristic features are imprinted on the mind forever Picture Quote #1

The reason we see hypocrisy and fraud and unreality in others is because they are all in our own hearts. The great characteristic of a saint is humility-Yes, all those things and other evils would have been manifested in me but for the grace of God, therefore I have no right to judge Picture Quote #1

[We need] someone bold, to put himself at the head of the disaffected and rally them against the oppressor. Some great character who could captivate the people... someone wise who could direct the actions of an unbridled and floating multitude Picture Quote #1

I am delighted to join Doctor Who and to be working with this incredible team. Ms Delphox is a great character and someone I’ve had a lot of fun playing Picture Quote #1

Good work is the great character-builder, the sweetener of life, the maker of destiny. Let the spirit of your work be right, and whether your task be great or small you will then have the satisfaction of knowing it is worth while Picture Quote #1

The cool thing is that jazz is really a wonderful example of the great characteristics of Buddhism and great characteristics of the human spirit. Because in jazz we share, we listen to each other, we respect each other, we are creating in the moment. At our best, we’re non-judgmental Picture Quote #1
