“The great actors are the luminous ones. They are the great conductors of the stage.”
Ethel Barrymore
“Acting is standing up naked and turning around very slowly.”
Rosalind Russell
“A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint. What I began by reading, I must finish by acting.”
Henry David Thoreau
“I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being.”
Oscar Wilde
“I love acting. It is so much more real than life.”
“Life's like a play; it's not the length but the excellence of the acting that matters”
Seneca
“The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the objects it loves.”
Carl Gustav Jung
