Performers Quotes

You have to remember we’re just performers, that we seldom have any kind of grasp on real life Picture Quote #1

I think that standup has always been an acquired taste and there was always only a handful of performers that were really inspired Picture Quote #1

It takes stamina to get up like an athlete every single night, seven to eight performances a week, 20 weeks in a row. And there are many young performers who only learn their craft in the two minute bits it takes to film a scene. You never learn the arc of storytelling, the arc of a character that way Picture Quote #1

All dance has expression. If there is no expression, I prefer the circus. The performers do more dangerous, more difficult technical things than we do. But we are dancers. We have to express and we have to project Picture Quote #1

The top players in every field think differently when all the marbles are on the line. Great performers focus on what they are doing, and nothing else... They let it happen, let it go. They couldn’t care less about the results Picture Quote #1

I’m honored to be in a position to have young girls or performers look up to me Picture Quote #1

When we outlaw child pornography, the prices paid for child performers rise, increasing the incentives for parents to use children against their will Picture Quote #1

Children who willingly participate in sexual acts have the right to make that decision as well, even if it’s distasteful to us personally. Some children will make poor choices just as some adults do in smoking and drinking to excess. When we outlaw child pornography, the prices paid for child performers rise, increasing the incentives for parents to use children against their will Picture Quote #1

Seen from the point of view of the composer, the most nonsensical practice is that of casting people in musicals who are unable to sing. No one would cast a dancing part with someone who cannot dance sufficiently to come up to professional standards. The same is true of acting. But when it comes to singing, more often than not it is amateur night... Either musicals should be written for specified performers in the first place, or they should be cast with people who are adequate to its dancing, acting and singing demands Picture Quote #1

I’ve worked with genius performers. Sometimes they created great work with a bad script... but not often. Play it safe: write well Picture Quote #1

Performers should realize they not only have to prepare themselves for concert purposes as far as memorizing their programs goes, but for the business of just walking out before the people …. It is important to play before an imaginary audience too. Before I play in public I very often play a program three or four times as though I were seated before a actual audience Picture Quote #1

Pop songs are not as graceful as they used to be. Performers today haven’t gone through the regimen of learning how to write. And of course, everyone wants to own copyrights. Rap culture is interesting and different and has purpose, but it has a nonromantic view of life and of social feelings. There may be a void in that Picture Quote #1

As an actress, I think it’s important to look back and realize that we aren’t always quite as original as we think we are. There’s this grand, textured history for us over the last 100 years of incredible writers, directors, and performers Picture Quote #1

Street performers, homemade crafts, keep your wallet in your front pocket and don’t buy any crap! Picture Quote #1

I continue to be very shy. I think a lot of actors and performers are really weird, shy people working it out onstage. I don’t know why that is Picture Quote #1

Some writers are more natural public performers than others; personally I find it quite strange giving interviews. But everyone has parts of their job that they like more than others. You can’t complain if you get to do what you love doing most of the time, can you? Picture Quote #1

I think there’s something unfortunate about the attention that performers get in our media, but the weight of government propaganda is so heavy that anyone with a different point of view who has access to the media has a responsibility to use it Picture Quote #1

Pure entertainment is not an egotistical lady singing boring songs onstage for two hours and people in tuxes clapping whether they like it or not. It’s the real performers on the street who can hold people’s attention and keep them from walking away Picture Quote #1

The role of an orchestra in the 21st century isn’t just playing, it’s about developing future audiences and performers Picture Quote #1

Not working is bad for you. It is my drug, it gives me a high; most performers will tell you that. And there is nothing like the high that an audience gives you Picture Quote #1

There are artists, true performers that have come before me who have been a big inspiration to me. I hope I do the same for others Picture Quote #1

The professionalism of technique and flash of dexterity are more comfortable to be around than raw creative power, hence our society generally rewards virtuoso performers more highly than it rewards original creators Picture Quote #1

The younger generation of performers really enjoy their success. Its like they know their moment is here right now and probably won’t be here in a few years Picture Quote #1

It’s personalities, it’s conflict, it’s all of these things that actually make performers interesting Picture Quote #1

Ignorance and arrogance are a lethal combination. Nowhere do we see that more clearly among writers and performers who pontificate as historians when they know nothing about history Picture Quote #1

People have different emotional levels. Especially when you’re young. Back then I guess most of my influences could be thought of as eccentric. Mass media had no overwhelming reach so I was drawn to the traveling performers passing through Picture Quote #1

Performers and their public should never meet. Once the curtain comes down, the performer should fly away like a magician’s dove Picture Quote #1

I love music that has good catchy choruses and fits into many different genres.... I like real artists, that write their own material and are great performers Picture Quote #1

Vanity is normal in performers. Does it bother other people? All the time. But nine times out of 10, that says more about them than you Picture Quote #1

All the best performers bring to their role something more, something different than what the author put on paper. That’s what makes theatre live. That’s why it persists Picture Quote #1
