To Grow: That Is Your

You Have To Get Beyond Your Own Precious Inner Experiences. The Actor Cannot Afford To Look Only To His Own Life For All His Material Nor Pull Strictly From His Own Experience To Find His Acting Choices And Feelings. The Ideas Of The Great Playwrights Are Almost Always Larger Than The Experiences Of Even The Best Actors.

Actors Need A Kind Of Aggression, A Kind Of Inner Force. Don't Be Only One-sided, Sweet, Nice, Good. Get Rid Of Being Average. Find The Killer In You.

The Imagination Is Closer To The Actor Than Real Life-more Agreeable, More Comfortable.

Your Job As Actors Is To Understand The Size Of What You Say, To Understand What's Beneath The Word.

You Cannot Afford To Confine Your Studies To The Classroom. The Universe And All Of History Is Your Classroom.
