If You Can't Take Both Sides, It

Don’t Use Your Conscious Past. Use Your Creative Imagination To Create A Past That Belongs To Your Character. I Don’t Want You To Be Stuck With Your Own Life. It’s Too Little.

You Have To Get Beyond Your Own Precious Inner Experiences. The Actor Cannot Afford To Look Only To His Own Life For All His Material Nor Pull Strictly From His Own Experience To Find His Acting Choices And Feelings. The Ideas Of The Great Playwrights Are Almost Always Larger Than The Experiences Of Even The Best Actors.

When You Most Succeed, You Do So By Seeming Not To Act At All.

Your Talent Is In Your Choice.

Be Innocent, Wise And Ninety-five.
