More quotes by Liev Schreiber
As soon as you know what you're doing, you're doing it wrong.
Liev Schreiber
Some actors need to be rattled and some need to be focused
Liev Schreiber
Particularly with the plays I choose, they're good parts, and they're parts that have been around long before a bad actor played them, and will be around long after I play them. Part of what I enjoy about the theatre and acting is that sense of history.
Liev Schreiber
I love having that creative discussion where, at the end of the day, you both feel better for having done it. Maybe it's a typically Jewish thing, where you sort of go at each other.
Liev Schreiber
There's something cathartic about swearing 150 times after spending ten hours in the editing room.
Liev Schreiber
Pitching. You're pitching yourself constantly which is probably why there are so many plays about sales. I think also it's like life.
Liev Schreiber
And you know, I hate to admit this, but I don't always think in terms of Shakespeare. When I eat, I do. When I'm at a restaurant, I'll think, 'Hmm, what would Macbeth have ordered?'
Liev Schreiber
Part of what I enjoy about the theatre and acting is that sense of history.
Liev Schreiber
I direct in the same way that I act, which is thinking about what the scene needs.
Liev Schreiber
I'm not that interested in working with impervious people.
Liev Schreiber
I am very good with dialects, but the two that I can't do for some reason are the South African and Australian.
Liev Schreiber
You always have to create the character from the ground up.
Liev Schreiber
The funny thing is that I write and I act a lot about being Jewish, but I don't really think about it as a regular person.
Liev Schreiber
I want to forget what I've learned about the character, but the reality is that you can't, because you've absorbed it. It's there in that moment when you need it. The hard part is to trust it.
Liev Schreiber
I was a writer. I just wasn't a very good one. I was lucky enough to have a playwriting teacher who told me that I'd be a better actor than I would a playwright.
Liev Schreiber
I get very nervous around famous people and I get nervous around beautiful women.
Liev Schreiber
Its the difference between instinct and intuition.
Liev Schreiber
Everyone assumes that novelists are smarter and more interesting. They're generally smarter and more interesting, but they're often very short. So it kind of cancels all the smart and interesting stuff out.
Liev Schreiber
I'm a typically lazy person. It is sort of characteristic of actors.
Liev Schreiber
I don't think I've ever been a huge target for the press, and I value that to a degree, because there's a certain value for actors staying beneath the radar so they can play characters.
