It's A Sad Thing To

The Play Is Always Fresh To Me. It's Not The Audience's Fault That I've Said The Words Before.

But, When I Toil In The Field Of Jewish Culture Which I Frequently Do, I Am Indeed A Jewish Artist.

An Actor Is Supposed To Emulate Life. Instead, Alas, Many Are Imitating Other Actors. You Don't Fashion Your Knowledge Of Theatre Or Your Approach To A Role On The Basis Of What Other Actors Have Done. This Kind Of Thinking Is A Great Danger, Especially In Dealing With Tv Producers Who Frequently Say Things Like, 'this Is A Sean Connery Type.'

What Moves Me Is Neither Ethnocentric Pride Nor Sectarian Arrogance. I Make No Claim That Jewish Culture Is Superior To Other Cultures. But It Is Mine.

I Do Prefer The Stage. It's Really The Granddaddy Of Them All.
