Performance Quotes

With dancing, so much is about sexuality and sensuality and without life experience it becomes much more of a performance, rather than a living, breathing entity from the soul Picture Quote #1

I grew up loving David Letterman and Pee-wee Herman, but as far as live performance comedy, all I knew were the Jerry Seinfeld-type comedians of the world, and that’s what I thought live performance comedy was all about Picture Quote #1

With high fashion, it’s a performance. You’re trying to interpret a fantasy in a very physical way, and you really are playing a character.

It’s quite an insular experience even though the crowd is in front of you and there’s an expectation Picture Quote #1

To vote is like the payment of a debt, a duty never to be neglected, if its performance is possible Picture Quote #1

I think people have different definitions of team unity. My definition is doing whatever it takes to win, what makes a great team; it’s performance on the field, respect on the field Picture Quote #1

You’re going to see this ‘Internet of things’ start demanding network performance and making the networks much more aware of what is on top of them Picture Quote #1

When you’re shooting a network television show it inevitably starts airing a few episodes in, and depending on the ratings and the response from the public, you find yourself tweaking your performance or the scripts go in a different direction Picture Quote #1

One day. I was putting on a hill in Zurich, and a few hundred yards away, Diana Ross was doing a sound test at an arena for a performance that night of ‘Take My Breath Away,’ my song with her. That was a very nice game, an incredible feeling Picture Quote #1

I’m always happy and most at home on the stage. I love film and television, but I love live performance... your immediacy with the audience, it makes all the difference in the world Picture Quote #1

Every performance is different, but I try to approach them in the same way and give it my all Picture Quote #1

I sing in many different colors and, hopefully, they add up to a great performance that, after you leave the theater, makes you feel like I’ve really shared something of myself Picture Quote #1

Maleficent was always so elegant. She always was in control. And to play her was difficult. I worked on my voice a lot. She’s bigger than me. She’s on a different level of performance that I have never done Picture Quote #1

No translation can possibly be perfect. Every production and every performance is a different path up the mountain, and nobody ever makes it all the way to the summit Picture Quote #1

As the director of an opera, it is my responsibility to unify the style of the particular performance, but one can certainly approach the piece from different points of view. That’s what makes it interesting and keeps it alive Picture Quote #1

I think I do have a way of predicting - not always accurately - what is a nerve-wracking day for actors, what may be a difficult scene or a difficult moment, how small - and it may be down to one line - a thing maybe that is upsetting or undermining a performance Picture Quote #1

Early in my career, I had difficulty breathing during workouts and my performance on the ice suffered. It wasn’t until I was diagnosed with EIB and received the proper treatment that I was able to reach my peak performance Picture Quote #1

Every acting gig isn’t the same, every writing job isn’t the same, every live performance isn’t the same - the challenge is the level of difficulty or ease, and that may vary Picture Quote #1

Dixie Chicks surprised me with a beautiful three-part harmony version of ‘I’ll Take Care of You.’ And Don Henley’s performance of ‘The Heart of the Matter’ still just slays me every time I hear it Picture Quote #1

I created a human being from paper and I put it on the screen, a unique individual. I wish every performance, every IMDB credit, I would do it over, because I would do it better, because I would do it less. If that makes any sense Picture Quote #1

Like the theater, offering food and hospitality to people is a matter of showmanship, and no matter how simple the performance, unless you do it well, with love and originality, you have a flop on your hands Picture Quote #1

At the end of every stage performance, the audience all applaud me for doing my job, but I have friends who work in offices who don’t get that Picture Quote #1

Research can be interesting, but it can be pointless as well. The realities of making a movie often are not conducive with that. I’m not knocking it. I love doing research myself, but I admit it doesn’t always add to the performance Picture Quote #1

I absolutely hated ‘Gattaca.’ I left the theater shaking my head because the science in the film was just terrible. No genetic test will ever tell you how many heartbeats you have left. No genetic test will ever be more accurate in telling an employer how well you’ll do at a job than your performance at a past job would be Picture Quote #1

I knew I really made it when my dad saw me in London and after the performance he had no notes to me and just said ‘You are doing your own thing and I am proud of you.’ Picture Quote #1

I don’t blame people who suspect my performance. My own mind suspects it. How can I blame them? Picture Quote #1

Don’t waste life in doubts and fears; spend yourself on the work before you, well assured that the right performance of this hour’s duties will be the best preparation for the hours and ages that will follow it Picture Quote #1
