You must be so thoroughly immersed in the given circumstances of the play, then you decide what it is at any given moment what that the actor wants.

Doubt is the enemy of creativeness.

The main factor in any form of creativeness is the life of a human spirit, that of the actor and his part, their joint feelings and subconscious creation.

Gratuitous cruelty borders on the pathological, psychotic and that becomes uninteresting because there is no choice.

In the circle of light on the state in the midst of darkness, you have the sensation of being entirely alone... This is called solitude in public... During a performance, before an audience of thousands, you can always enclose yourself in this circle, like a snail in its shell... You can carry it wherever you go.

Play well, or play badly, but play truly.

Young actors, fear your admirers! Learn in time, from your first steps, to hear, understand and love the cruel truth about yourselves. Find out who can tell you that truth and talk of your art only with those who can tell you the truth.
