People Only Speak To Get Something.

At The Neighborhood Playhouse School Of Theatre, Sanford Meisner Said, 'when You Go Into The Professional World, At A Stock Theatre Somewhere, Backstage, You Will Meet An Older Actor, Someone Who Has Been Around Awhile. He Will Tell You Tales And Anecdotes, About Life In The Theatre. He Will Speak To You About Your Performance And The Performances Of Others, And He Will Generalize To You, Based On His Experience And His Intuitions, About The Laws Of The Stage. Ignore This Man!'

My Definition Of A 'friend' Is, Coming From Chicago, Someone Who Says, 'yeah, Sure. You Know What? Let's Talk About What We Can Talk About. Let's Help Each Other Out. Your Politics Are None Of My Business.'

It's Upsetting To Be A Man In Our Society.

Characters On Stage, Like People In What We Refer To As "real Life," Do Not Speak To Reveal Themselves. They Do Not Speak To Conceal Themselves. They Speak To Get Whatever It Is That They Want. It Is The Only Reason They Speak.

I Understand That Computers, Which I Once Believed To Be But A Hermaphrodite Typewriter-cum-filing Cabinet, Offer The Cyber Literate Increased Ability To Communicate. I Do Not Think This Is Altogether A Bad Thing, However It May Appear On The Surface.
