Performing Quotes

One of the many reasons why I love stand-up so much is when you’re performing, you get instant feedback. You know if stuff is working right away Picture Quote #1

Performing arts was something I was always part of. That was may be the only common thread that ran throughout my education, throughout my schooling years. But apart from that, there were no friends or no long term associations. That was the only thing I knew was with me wherever I went Picture Quote #1

People are beginning to realize that it’s important that we see animals in a natural state - but through film, through video, through documentaries, at wildlife preserves, and through other humanely protected ways, which don’t involve... performing for us Picture Quote #1

It seems that these phenomenal feats that race car drivers are performing are instinctive. They [require] very little mental workload Picture Quote #1

Learn as much as you can about performing. Live theater, improv classes, music, stand up comedy, dance, anything to make yourself confident and comfortable in front of an audience. It’ll all come in handy when auditioning for producers and performing with other actors. The best voice actors all have a live performance background. And are competent, fearless, incredibly creative actors Picture Quote #1

My mom and my dad never pushed me into performing. They never prohibited me from trying anything, or being anything. They never restricted me in any way. For which I’ll be forever grateful Picture Quote #1

I began my career performing in plays and musicals in New York, but by the mid- 80s, opportunities in Hollywood beckoned and I made the move to Los Angeles. It was a good decision. Work took off, but most important, I met my family out there - my husband, Bill, and the children we would adopt: Elijah, Mae-Mae, and Aron Picture Quote #1

I explain to athletes, you’re supposed to be a well-oiled machine. You’re supposed to be in better shape than the people watching you. You’re supposed to be an unbelievable specimen of a human being. You have to treat your body different while you’re performing Picture Quote #1

The only thing that’s helped me get through some really hard times was just being able to write and express - it’s very cathartic for me. I’m hoping that, by writing and performing for other people, it affects them the same way Picture Quote #1

I’m tired of being in a band, but I do want to continue making records and performing, at least a little bit. Making the records isn’t always fun. It’s fun to be finished with them. Making beautiful things can be quite painful Picture Quote #1

I would have been a visual artist. When I was in high school, that was one of the things... I had to make a decision what I was going to go to college for, and at the time, I also painted and sculpted. I got more attention for my performing, so I thought that was a better idea Picture Quote #1

I remember performing in Russia when I was twenty, and I stayed at this hotel with 3000 rooms. There were sailors knocking on my room door, wanting to barter stuffed animals with Marlboros that I had been instructed to bring! Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been into theater and movies. When I was in school, I did a monologue for my talent show. I would go to the local theater. I was always in dance. I was always performing. That was always my thing Picture Quote #1

I love being in the studio and singing on stage and performing. It’s so much fun. I love every second of it - and I love the way you get to show who you are. I love the way fans are really passionate around the world, so I adore performing and hearing people sing along in different countries Picture Quote #1

On a good night, I’m just into the flow and seeing the pictures and words in my mind clearly before I say them. On a bad night, which to be honest are nowhere near as bad as when I was starting out, I just concentrate on performing the routines correctly. I focus on my delivery Picture Quote #1

I pride myself on never using a cuss word on stage. Ever. I headline in Las Vegas every year, and this summer I am performing on an Alaskan cruise. Not too many comedians can pull that off. Funny thing is, my show doesn’t change for Vegas Picture Quote #1

I love songwriting ! It’s my Number One passion other than performing. Well, actually it’s like wearing three different hats: songwriting, recording and performing. They’re all completely different and draw on different types of skills. With recording, there are so many different phases of production, and you have to be very careful because you can polish it until it doesn’t shine Picture Quote #1

I went to Performing Arts because that was the only school that would accept me. My scholastic level was not very high Picture Quote #1

When I was in first grade, the kids called me ‘fatso.’ It hurt, but the way I overcame it was to outrun every kid in the class. So I developed a thick skin, and athletics became my way of performing and being accepted Picture Quote #1

Acting was merely a pastime; I wanted to make films. But theatre, ah - now that was a labour of love. Can there be anything better than performing without retakes and cuts, in front of people you can see, hearing them breathe in the darkness of the hall? Picture Quote #1

I went to the High School for Performing Arts in New York for acting. I’ve studied it on and off for years and have done some theater and film Picture Quote #1

There’s nothing better than going out there and performing and making that connection with audiences. Even after all this time I get the biggest buzz from that Picture Quote #1

At this point in my life - age 24 - I have chosen a fairly strange path that not many are walking. I am a professional spoken word poet who tours the world performing and teaching. I run an organization called Project VOICE dedicated to using this art form as an education and empowerment tool in schools and communities of all kinds Picture Quote #1

Doris Day started performing at a young age, had a tough road to success, and once she achieved it delivered the goods 100 percent and brilliantly, always making difficult work look as easy as breathing Picture Quote #1

If players are performing for you, their age shouldn’t really matter, especially because the older players can bring their experience to the table Picture Quote #1

I was just a ham since about the age of five. If I was performing at Medieval Times or something, I’d be the court jester. That was always my defense mechanism. I was never all that funny; I was just obnoxious and loud Picture Quote #1

I was five years old; I got addicted to being on stage. I felt like it was the most wonderful place on Earth, performing in front of an audience, who in this case were a bunch of classmates, kids my age Picture Quote #1

I have such happy memories of performing in a choir and I don’t think I’d have got where I am today without all that experience. So my advice to young singers is to either join your school or church’s choir or find one in your local area. Choral music at any level teaches you so much about musicianship and blending your voice Picture Quote #1

I get really nervous right before I go on stage. But once I’m performing, I always love it. It’s like being in a different world Picture Quote #1

Your body is an amazing creation, capable of performing great wonders, but you can destroy that miraculous machine’s potential with an overdose of stress Picture Quote #1
