You name it
and I've done it. I'd like to say I did it my way. But that
line, I'm afraid, belongs to someone else.
-- Sammy Davis Jr.
1925-1990, American Actor,
Dancer, Singer
The real actor
has a direct line to the collective heart.
-- Bette Davis

I have often
seen an actor laugh off the stage, but I don't remember ever
having seen one weep.
-- Denis Diderot
1713-1784, French Philosopher
I'd prefer not
to be the pretty thing in a film. It's such a bloody
responsibility to look cute, because people know when you
don't and they're like, ''They're trying to pass her off as
the cute girl and she's looking like a bedraggled sack of
potatoes.
-- Minnie Driver
1971-, British-born American
Actress, Guitarist, Singer

I find myself
fascinating.
-- Richard Dryfus
American Actor
I mean, the
question actors most often get asked is how they can bear
saying the same things over and over again, night after
night, but God knows the answer to that is, don't we all
anyway; might as well get paid for it.
-- Elaine Dundy
She represents
the un-vowed aspiration of the male human being, his
potential infidelity -- and infidelity of a very special
kind, which would lead him to the opposite of his wife, to
the ''woman of wax'' whom he could model at will, make and
unmake in any way he wished, even unto death.
-- Marguerite Duras
1914-, French Author,
Filmmaker
Acting doesn't
bring anything to a text. On the contrary, it detracts from
it.
-- Marguerite Duras
1914-, French Author,
Filmmaker
