Stage Quotes

The truth is, unlike TV and film cameras, the theater stage doesn’t add 10 pounds Picture Quote #1

Film has always been hard for me, I’m basically a stage actress. I never felt comfortable in front of the camera Picture Quote #1

Some of the greatest actors on the planet are the most insecure people. Now I don’t know if that insecurity necessarily equates to a lack of confidence. Some people are just very shy individuals. You give them a character to play and a script, and you put them in front of a camera or on a stage, and they just go Picture Quote #1

I went to theatre school for four years and just wanted to do theatre. I had no ambition to be on TV or to be on camera. I just wanted to go to New York or London and be on stage... I did a lot of theatre in Montreal, got involved in TV in Toronto and then moved to L.A. I hope that film and TV will take me back to theatre Picture Quote #1

In my late 30s, I flirted with the idea of having a child without necessarily being in a steady relationship. But I’ve never had a strong maternal urge, and then I got cancer of the womb - luckily caught at an early stage - so that put paid to that Picture Quote #1

You can’t cure your own cancer, obviously, especially if it’s late stage Picture Quote #1

I’m happy about working; I’m happy about gracing the stage and coming out and making people laugh. I never treat it like a job or feel that way. It’s the best thing ever to me, and I feel like a kid in a candy store Picture Quote #1

Imperialism, in a sense, is the transition stage from capitalism to Socialism. . . . It is capitalism dying, not dead Picture Quote #1

We modern Marxists regard socialism as a historically brief transitional stage between feudalism and capitalism, necessary only in backward countries Picture Quote #1

I’m not in Captain America because it takes place in the 40s. Both he and Bruce Banner are relationships that evolve during this - two more rock stars that I got to get on stage, ready to play ball Picture Quote #1

Develop a mentor at each stage of your career - someone who will give you guidance and advice Picture Quote #1

Once you get on stage, everything is right. I feel the most beautiful, complete, fulfilled. I think that’s why, in the case of noncompromising career women, parts of our personal lives don’t work out. One person can’t give you the feeling that thousands of people give you Picture Quote #1

Our perception of songs that we’ve written... the meaning changes from day to day... to whatever stage we’re at in our life and careers Picture Quote #1

Cary Grant was on the back lot one time doing a movie called North by Northwest. I would see Cary outside the stage, and he would sit on a set chair and had one of those reflectors. He wanted this tan so he didn’t have to use makeup Picture Quote #1

What I do on stage, you won’t catch me doing off stage. I mean, I think deep down I’m still kind of, like, timid and modest about a lot of things. But on stage, I release all that; I let it go Picture Quote #1

Martyrs - those killed because of their Catholic faith - can be beatified even if they don’t perform a miracle. However, all beatified individuals must stage a certifiable miracle before being made a saint Picture Quote #1

Center Stage focused on the drive and what it’s like to be a student, and this is what it’s like to be an adult and what you need to give up in the pursuit of that passion and that focus Picture Quote #1

Nicholas Hytner, who directed Center Stage, is a huge ballet fan. He was completely open, as was Bruce Beresford, to get our perspective. No, we wouldn’t do this. Yes, we would do that. That’s not realistic. So, I feel like Center Stage did well in that respect Picture Quote #1

Robinson did not merely play at center stage. He was center stage; and wherever he walked, center stage moved with him Picture Quote #1

I feel that the real drama of life is never center stage, it’s always in the wings. It’s never with the spotlight on, it’s usually something that you don’t expect at all Picture Quote #1

To a large extent, the aged in our society are ghettoized. Old people are seen as useless, bypassed by history, old-fashioned, in the way. So, not surprisingly, when we reach the official mark of old age, we’re supposed to go gently into that good night, to get off center stage and hand over the spotlight. Old age is also surrounded by shame - the myth of impotence and inability Picture Quote #1

Right before I go on stage, I’m absolutely terrified. My mind darts at many directions, but the center of me is going forward into the performance Picture Quote #1

[Donald] Trump is taking America’s dirty laundry to the center stage. Everything he does, the rest of the country already does really well: victimize immigrants, poor people, women Picture Quote #1

The declaration of love marks the transition from chance to destiny, and that’s why it is so perilous and so burdened with a kind of horrifying stage fright Picture Quote #1

It’s not humanly possible for anyone not to go through changes. Change is a constant in everyone’s life, even in mine. I have enjoyed the change at every stage of my life Picture Quote #1

I remember feeling the temperature change the first time the curtain came up, the difference between the audience temperature and the stage temperature. I’ll never forget it Picture Quote #1

Generally, it’s a great exercise to not get stuck in one medium too long because you begin to lose perspective on the peculiar drawbacks and strengths of the medium. For example, if I’m in the back of the stage and I want you to see my emotional change by a flicker of my eyelid, we’re all going to be in for a long boring evening Picture Quote #1

In the past, if you did film, you couldn’t do stage, and if you did film, you certainly didn’t do television. You had to pick what you wanted to be. Now it seems like we can bounce around, not only between genres, but between mediums, and I like that. I like change and I like a good story Picture Quote #1

A movie and a stage show are two entirely different things. A picture, you can do anything you want. Change it, cut out a scene, put in a scene, take a scene out. They don’t do that on stage Picture Quote #1

My life changed the day I walked across that stage. Because I finally finished something! Picture Quote #1
