Performer Quotes

I went to a theater arts school, so I’m interested in many different projects, whether it be film, television or even live theater. I’m a performer. That’s what I do. That’s what I want to do Picture Quote #1

It seems like a contradiction, but the shy person who is a performer actually does make sense, because in a way, when you’re young and shy, making people laugh is a good way to make friends. It’s an instant connection Picture Quote #1

It’s rare when an artist’s talent can touch an entire generation of people. It’s even rarer when that same influence affects several generations. Elvis made an imprint on the world of pop music unequaled by any other single performer Picture Quote #1

... it took me five years of going right into the mouth of the lion to learn to be at ease onstage... if you deal with an audience as a bunch of people having a great time, you’ll have a much bettrer time as a performer Picture Quote #1

A performer may be taken in by his own act, convinced at the moment that the impression of reality which he fosters is the one and only reality. In such cases we have a sense in which the performer comes to be his own audience; he comes to be performer and observer of the same show. Presumably he introcepts or incorporates the standards he attempts to maintain in the presence of others so that even in their absence his conscience requires him to act in a socially proper way Picture Quote #1

To others we are not ourselves but a performer in their lives cast for a part we do not even know that we are playing Picture Quote #1

I’ve been, I think, able to stay grounded in such a crazy business, and I attribute that a lot to my family, and especially to my mother. Because, you know, she just was always there to kind of remind me of what priorities should be. O.K., yes, I’m an artist, I’m a performer, but I’m a sister, I’m a daughter, I’m a granddaughter, I’m an aunt. Those things have to be as important, if not more important, than my career Picture Quote #1

Performance shots are a waste of time, they look like everyone else’s. If you want to shoot a performer, then grab them, own them, you have to own people, then twist them into what you want to say about them Picture Quote #1

The piano is a divinely inspired instrument, a mirror held up to its player’s soul that captures the light and shadow of the performer and reflects them back to the listener Picture Quote #1

I’m really only responsible to make sure that one person is clapping at the end of my life. Because I feel like as a performer, a lot of times you live for everyone else’s applause. That’s a dangerous thing within the church or outside the church Picture Quote #1

What a costume designer does is a cross between magic and camouflage. We create the illusion of changing the actors into what they are not. We ask the public to believe that every time they see a performer on the screen he’s become a different person Picture Quote #1

Go with your gut every single time. It’s never, ever wrong. Even if feels like everybody else is telling you that you need to do this or do that. Your gut is your artist and who you are as a person and what makes you special, and what makes you an interesting performer. Never try to be something you’re not Picture Quote #1

If I belong to a tradition it is a tradition that makes the masterpiece tell the performer what he should do and not the performer telling the piece what it should be like, or the composer what he ought to have composed Picture Quote #1

The true exceptional performer is on super pilot. Every single sense, every fiber of his body is brought together in what he is doing Picture Quote #1

Almost 70 years have gone by, and I’ve still got that feeling when I write... Writing, for me, is still it. It has always been the basis of everything I do. I’m a writer who performs, not a performer who writes. I love the act of writing. It’s still a thrill for me Picture Quote #1

Here’s what I advise any young struggling actress today: The important thing is to develop as a woman first, and a performer second.

One piece of advice that I would give to any young athlete or performer is remember to thank your mom Picture Quote #1

My entire life, I’ve always known that I wanted to be a performer, but I didn’t know exactly how, where or when. I never learned or studied the craft, formally.

The fitness builds the foundation for me as an actor to have clarity. Fitness has always been the base of where I start off as a performer Picture Quote #1

Some bands blow it before they even play. The most important moment of any show is when a band walks out with the red amp lights glowing, the flashlight that shows each performer the way to his spot on the stage. It’s crucial not to blow it. It sets the tempo of the show; it affects everyone’s perception of the band Picture Quote #1
