If I Had My Druthers, I Would

I Was Born A Character Actor.

Dancing Came Easy For Me. Acting Came Hard.

I Would Rather Do A Play Because It's Instantaneous. You Go On The Stage, And You Know Whether It's Happening Or Not. Somebody Asked Me 'what Is Acting?' And I Said, 'acting Is Listening.' And If You Ain't Listening, Nobody's Listening.

You're Out There On A High Wire Without A Net, And That's The Way Actors Operate. They Have To Be Fearless About How They Work And They Have To Create A Life For The Audience In 90 Minutes And Make Them Believe.

Acting Is Ephemeral. You Can't Hang It On A Wall. You Can't Throw It Off. And You Can't Bring It Out Of A Closet. It's There One Night And It's Gone The Next, At Least With Stage Acting Anyhow.
