I Am Filled With Awe

I Don't Speak Out Because I Am An Actor Nor Will I Keep Silent Because I Am An Actor. I Respect My Profession, But It Endows Me With No Special Privileges; But It Also Does Not Limit Me Or Muzzle Me. I Am A Person And A Citizen With The Attendant Responsibilities Of Voice And Vote.

You Cannot Please All Of The People All Of The Time, And That Is Truer In The Arts Than Anywhere Else.

I Know For Certain Of Only One Commandment, One Obligation, That God Imposes Upon Us, And That Is To Be Compassionate Toward Other Human Beings.

I Remain Convinced That I Can Be A True Universalist Only When I Am A Better Jew.

I Am First, And Foremost, An Actor. That's What I Am. To Me, A Song Is A Mini-drama. My Musical Ability Informs The Actor As Well Because It Gives Me A Sense Of Timing That Non-musicians Don't Have. So, One Hand Washes The Other.
