Everyone has a different path. I knew no one in the acting industry growing up. I never did a play until college. I was not outspoken when I was younger and I hated being the center of attention. But I had a dream of being an actor. I went to NYU and studied theatre. I learned a craft. And began my career straight out of college.
Peter Facinelli
Image
I'm disappointed in acting as a craft. I want everything to go back to Orson Welles and fake noses and changing your voice. It's become so much about personality.
Spencer Tracy
Image
I actually believe that a lot of what people call originality has to do with persistence in the craft.
George Saunders
Image
People know that I always do my hair and makeup, but I also love doing crafts. I love getting a blank canvas and painting something.

There are nine-and-sixty ways of constructing tribal lays, And every single one of them is right.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
Everywhere there is craft and technique everywhere there is artistry and form. Art itself, technique, is ponderous and clumsy, and because of its awkwardness it obstructs that inner element.
Kazimir Malevich
Image
Far from wishing to awaken the artist in the pupil prematurely, the teacher considers it his first task to make him a skilled artisan with sovereign control of his craft.
Eugen Herrigel
Image
Tap into what you don't want to say. Tap into that secret place, despite the agony, despite the personal pain, over and above the fatigue.
Arthur Penn

There is one story and one story only.
Robert Graves

I had no agenda in writing this play except expressing myself. . . . It later occurred to me that I was not only announcing things to my family I was announcing it to the world. Of course, if the play had been a flop, only my family would have known.
Mart Crowley

Real life has always let me down. That's why I do the monologues. I have always said I would rather tell a life than live a life. But I have to live a life in order to tell one.
Spalding Gray
Image
Sometimes I can better describe a person by another person's reaction. In a story in my first book, I couldn't think of a way to sufficiently describe the charisma of a certain boy, so the narrator says, I knew girls who saved his gum.
Amy Hempel

The more you are blessed with experience, the fuller and the more enriched you are in your craft.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

All great art comes from a sense of outrage.
Glenn Close

It's strange, 'cause a play, you start at the beginning and you go all the way through to the end. So it's naturally very well rehearsed and you get a rhythm and a flow. In film, you can shoot the ending before the beginning. It's very odd. And it's like a craft you have to learn.
Judd Nelson
Image
Art is craft, not inspiration.
Stephen Sondheim
Image
I've always remembered something Sanford Meisner, my acting teacher, told us. When you create a character, it's like making a chair, except instead of making someting out of wood, you make it out of yourself. That's the actor's craft - using yourself to create a character.
Robert Duvall
Image
If we see an object as a bowl, it may inhibit seeing it as craft, just as seeing it as craft might inhibit seeing it as art. See first name later.
Walter Darby Bannard
Image
Originality, then, ultimately distinguishes art from craft. We may say, therefore, that it is the yardstick of artistic greatness or importance.
H. W. Janson
Image
Though, as he was torn into a pink upper air, she was a good craft to ride in, for her belly was firm and her breasts enabled a flying man good hold and emotions of heady safety. . . . Steering her peasant tits he bounded off stars.
Thomas Keneally

Writing really is a difficult craft and there are many parts to master.
James Johnson
Image
First thought, best thought.
Allen Ginsberg

What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie? I, who was born in a naked land and bred in the open sky. The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing Rush in and die, dogs—I was a man before I was a king.
Robert E. Howard
