“I trained as a theater actor and you had a bare stage and you had to pretend, one prop and you are in the middle of 8th Ave. and traffic is just going by.”
Benicio Del Toro
“This whole creation is essentially subjective, and the dream is the theater where the dreamer is at once: scene, actor, prompter, stage manager, author, audience, and critic.”
Carl Gustav Jung
“It was an accident, although I’ve been involved in some kind of theatrical function or other since I was a child – in school, music, athletics. To me, acting is the most logical way for people’s neuroses to manifest themselves, in this great need we all have to express ourselves. To my way of thinking, an actor’s course is set even before he’s out of the cradle.”
James Dean
“The movies enable an actor not only to act but also to sit down in the theater and clap for himself”
Will Rogers
“Shakespeare was a working actor who worked in the same theater company his whole life, and we need to take seriously his own commitment to the theatrical realization of his work.”
Gary Taylor
“I majored in theater, but it was pretty obvious right off that I wasn't any good as an actor. I'd been writing shows since I was in high school. So I concentrated on writing for the theater.”
