Actors are players and if they're hot, or onto something, you let them go, or you and the actor can both get on to something. I always run out with lines as I think of them.
William Monahan
Image
Actors are programmed to see the worst. If you're talking about an actor's TV series, you say, I loved you last night. And they go, What about the week before? They immediately worry.
Tom Hooper
Image
Actors have bodyguards and entourages not because anybody wants to hurt them - who would want to hurt an actor? - but because they want to get recognized. God forbid someone doesn't recognize them.
James Caan
Image
Actors have to protect each other in a way. The idea of humiliating another actor or being humiliated myself is devastating.
Nicole Kidman
Image
Actor Mike Warren [was my former teammate], who was in Hill Street Blues. There are more, but it's starting to sound like a team reunion at Red Lobster. They were a great bunch of guys and we accomplished a lot together. That's something you don't forget.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Image
Actors aren't fighters. They don't know how to throw a punch. So, there's a lot of hitting in the face. I'd much rather fight with a stuntman than another actor. I don't like fighting with other actors because somebody always ends up getting hurt.
Aaron Eckhart
Image
Actor is an odd profession, and sometimes people get jealous, but I haven't really experienced any of that. Everyone's been really happy for me, which is really, really great.
Benedict Cumberbatch
Image
Actors, who should pride themselves on their singularity, are forever trying to be someone else. It isn’t necessary for you, the actor, to like yourself— self-love isn’t easy to come by for most of us— but you must learn to trust who you are. There is no one else like you.
Michael Shurtleff
Image
Actors who have tried to play Churchill and MacArthur have failed abysmally because each of those men was a great actor playing himself.
William Manchester
Image
Actors are such wonderful creatures and such wonderful instruments. It's always different on the page, or in my head. I hear it differently. I see it differently. And then, you give it to an actor and it comes alive, in a way that you didn't expect.
Kelly Masterson
Image
Actor's life is very long.
Jackie Chan
Image
Actor is just a strange profession, it really is, that you could be in front of the same people for years, and all of a sudden one thing happens, and it finally clicks.
Viola Davis
Image
We do say no to a lot, but we also say yes I find ways of coming to peace with certain things. Sometimes a writer or actor will reach out and make it very personal.
Alex Scally
Image
An actor's job is to embrace emotions and situations that in real life we spend all of our time running away from.
Wentworth Miller
Image
I'm an actor because I love movies, and always have loved movies. I'm a film buff. So, getting to work with those kinds of directors and getting to tell those stories is what I want to do.
Alden Ehrenreich
Image
The way that you have cut the film, you can take the audience out of the action if it becomes evident that there is a stunt double doing it rather than the actor. I'd rather stay with the character and the story point behind the fight, rather than cutting to a wide angle of the fight.
Wade Eastwood
Image
I've always thought of acting as a tool to change society. I watch a lot of actors and I see panic in their eyes because they don't know why they act and I know why I act. Whether I'm a good or a bad actor, I know why I do it.
Andy Serkis
Image
I'm an actor. I'm just a creative person. I figure if I wasn't a good writer, I'd take to renovating homes... not renovating... decorating homes.
Andrea Gabriel
Image
I have never felt brutalized as an actor. Many actors do, some times, but I've never had that experience. If I'm not happy with the balance, I just won't work with that person again.
Jack Nicholson
Image
As an actor, I've always said, half the audience is going to love you, half is going to hate you so just live with it. It's easier that way.
Ioan Gruffudd
Image
I've always been quite mature because of the way my parents brought me up. They were very good at talking to me like a person rather than a baby, and I was around so many actors and directors from such a young age because my dad is an actor. I was more comfortable with adults rather than actually being an adult child.
Saoirse Ronan
Image
I think movies are a director's medium in the end. Theater is the actor's medium. Theater is fast, and enjoyable, and truly rewarding. I believe in great live performance.
Sam Mendes
Image
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.'
Theodore Bikel
Image
When you use any kind of internet based capability, any kind of electronic capability, to cause damage to a private entity or a foreign nation or a foreign actor, these are potential acts of war.
