Roles Quotes

As we create synergy among the roles of our lives, there’s more of us to put into the time we have Picture Quote #1

We must, therefore, quit our roles as jailers and instead take care to prepare an environment in which we do as little as possible to exhaust the child with our surveillance and instruction Picture Quote #1

I look for roles that show women as independent, informed, and free to make their own decisions Picture Quote #1

Boyhood proves that there’s still good roles for women over 40, as long as you get hired when you’re under 40 Picture Quote #1

If you look at the movies that come out, most of them are bad, so it’s not as if achieving some level of success means you get offered better roles, because frankly they don’t seem to exist Picture Quote #1

Our stories come from our lives and from the playwright’s pen, the mind of the actor, the roles we create, the artistry of life itself and the quest for peace Picture Quote #1

I like the character roles. Somewhere back there I really came to the conclusion in my mind that the difference between acting and stardom was major. And that if you become a star, people are going to go to see you. If you remain an actor, they’re going to go and see the story you’re in Picture Quote #1

There’s a certain cruelty to being on a big screen as your eyelids start to sag and your hair falls out and turns gray that you either have to be able to handle or not. What you can’t do is try to force yourself into roles that you could have played or would have played ten years earlier Picture Quote #1

I know people who prepare their roles in such a way that they technically look ahead and memorize their gestures, and then they stick to it. Those that are technically proficient enough can make it seem natural, but they do that and don’t really take in what other people are doing Picture Quote #1

We’ve never thought too deeply about the roles things like forgetting or partisanship or inefficiency or ambiguity or hypocrisy play in our political or social life. It’s been impossible to get rid of them, so we took them for granted, and we kind of thought, naively, that they’re always the enemy Picture Quote #1

The institutions of human society treat us as parts of a machine. They assign us ranks and place considerable pressure upon us to fulfill defined roles. We need something to help us restore our lost and distorted humanity. Each of us has feelings that have been suppressed and have built up inside. There is a voiceless cry resting in the depths of our souls, waiting for expression. Art gives the soul’s feelings voice and form Picture Quote #1

When I was 9 or 10, I used to get all the lead roles because I was the tallest person. But my interest in music soon drew me to country music. I was infatuated with the sound, with the storytelling. I could relate to it. I can’t really tell you why. With me, it was just instinctual Picture Quote #1

I don’t view prosecutors and attorneys as natural enemies... Though their roles are oppositional, the two simply have different roles to play in pursuit of the larger purpose, realizing the rule of law... This is not to deny that the will to win drives those efforts... Rather, it is simply to insist that ultimately, neither the accused nor society is served unless the integrity of the system is set above the expedient purposes of either side Picture Quote #1

In a society where the roles everyone plays are obvious, the refusal to conform to any standard will excite interest. Be both masculine and feminine, impudent and charming, subtle and outrageous. Let other people worry about being socially acceptable; those types are a dime a dozen, and you are after a power greater than they can imagine Picture Quote #1

Many adults play roles when they speak to young children. They use silly words and sounds. They talk down to the child. They don’t treat the child as an equal. The fact that you temporarily know more, or you’re bigger does not mean the child is not your equal Picture Quote #1

I remember that it was never that difficult for me to get a director to look up and pay attention to me. Mind you, I don’t know if that’s necessarily charm. But I’ve played roles where my character has to be charming and I’ve found it quite easy to do. I think some of it is in my bones, but some of it is more deliberate Picture Quote #1

I like to play different types roles, but I’d like to do a comedy next Picture Quote #1

After that, I was offered lots of lesbian roles, but I didn’t want them because I’d already played the best there was Picture Quote #1

You go up for hundreds, thousands of roles, and you get told no, no, no, so many times Picture Quote #1

The best roles you have to fight for. You have to really want to do it and you have to go after it Picture Quote #1

I think the roles in television are better for women right now. At this point, I don’t want to continue doing the same things I’ve been doing in film because it’s very limited Picture Quote #1

For me, choice is the most important thing because I’m going to be an adult actor pretty soon. So I’ve got to be choosing the right roles now so that by the time I get to that age there will be wide options available Picture Quote #1

We don’t consider the roles that we’re taking in making the world the way it is Picture Quote #1

You should learn to be happy with what you have. Besides, the fact that I’m not a huge star has allowed me to pick and choose the roles I want to do, not the ones some person sitting in a studio office thinks I should do Picture Quote #1

I have very much enjoyed being in the music business in different roles through five different decades Picture Quote #1

I was getting offers. I had just turned them down. Then I realized I should be grateful that at age 54, people were still offering me film roles Picture Quote #1

As a fiscal conservative, I believe one of the most important roles the federal government can play in assuring that our economy remains strong is to keep our fiscal house in order Picture Quote #1

I played a real nasty little girl but most of the roles I had up until then were very sweet and very nice Picture Quote #1

I am not an angel and do not pretend to be. That is not one of my roles. But I am not the devil either. I am a woman and a serious artist, and I would like so to be judged Picture Quote #1
