Acting, Is Not A Profession

Acting Is Illusion, As Much Illusion As Magic Is - And Not So Much A Matter Of Being Real.

Use Your Weaknesses; Aspire To The Strength.

Life Is Enthusiasm, Zest.

In The Great Wealth, The Great Firmament Of Your Nation's Generosities This Particular Choice May Perhaps Be Found By Future Generations As A Trifle Eccentric, But The Mere Fact Of It . . . The Prodigal, Pure, Human Kindness Of It . . . Must Be Seen As A Beautiful Star In That Firmament Which Shines Upon Me At This Moment, Dazzling Me A Little, But Filling Me With Warmth Of The Extraordinary Elation, The Euphoria That Happens To So Many Of Us At The First Breath Of The Majestic Glow Of A New Tomorrow.
