In talking about a genius, you would not say that he lies; he sees realities with different eyes from ours.

Stage charm guarantees in advance an actor's hold on the audience, it helps him to carry over to large numbers of people his creative purposes. It enhances his roles and his art. Yet it is of utmost importance that he use this precious gift with prudence, wisdom, and modesty. It is a great shame when he does not realize this and goes on to exploit, to play on his ability to charm.

Create your own method. Don't depend slavishly on mine. Make up something that will work for you! But keep breaking traditions, I beg you.

The character has to have some kind of arch. The character has to go through an event, and be changed by the human event.

In talking about a genius, you would not say that he lies; he sees realities with different eyes from ours.

You'll never see any two good actors approach a role in the same way.

Never allow yourself externally to portray anything that you have not inwardly experienced and which is not even interesting to you.
