More quotes by Frank Langella
And the test for any actor is whether you stay at the table or go away.
Frank Langella
But in order to be the thing you want to be, you have to work like a dog at the thing you love.
Frank Langella
Vampires are sexy to a woman perhaps because the fantasy is similar to that of the man on the white horse sweeping her off to paradise.
Frank Langella
It's also easy to fall back into what's familiar, what feels safe, what you've done before.
Frank Langella
I always choose to do the thing that scares me.
Frank Langella
There is a thing called the death wish, a literal thing. It doesn't mean you want to die. It just means however we're built, as we get into these years, some inner part of you does begin to accept the fact that you're heading towards the end, and there's a peace that comes with that.
Frank Langella
There are no taboos in bed, and there shouldn't be any taboos in bed.
Frank Langella
You can only lead by example.
Frank Langella
When I closed in King Lear I went into a period of depression for about three weeks, and every actor I've talked to who's ever played a major, major Shakespeare role has done this.
Frank Langella
One of the safest places to be in the world is the stage.
Frank Langella
I had to face within myself all the things I didn't do and wasn't while I was wearing my own crown.
Frank Langella
I just feel that no matter what comes in a career - and mine has been all over the map - you must stay at the table, pick up the cards you're dealt and play them.
Frank Langella
I'm hardly disinterested totally in my appearance
Frank Langella
At this point in my career, I can stand shoulder to shoulder with an actor my age who has chosen to do really awful things, and he will get a job over me.
Frank Langella
You can only lead by example, and you can only say it might be better for you if. But nobody can do anything until they're ready to do it. So you can sit down with a strong-minded young man of 24, as my son was at a point, and say now listen, this, this, this, and this.
Frank Langella
However, I don't by any means suggest that I'm always playing myself.
Frank Langella
When asked what it takes to succeed in the acting profession, Bette Davis would answer, The courage to be hated.
Frank Langella
Absolutely. I can produce. I can write. I can direct.
Frank Langella
I will carry on acting as long as I have breath and as long as I have energy and as long as I can remember my lines. Those are the basic things you need to be an actor. I'll never retire unless something happens to me and I can't do it well. If I can't do it well I don't want to see the public to see me wasting away in front of them.
Frank Langella
The only thing you have then to believe in is your craft.
