In the language of an actor, to know is synonymous with to feel

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

Don't go so deep in yourself that you no longer exist for your partner and for the character and for the play.

All action in theatre must have inner justification, be logical, coherent, and real.

Remember this practical piece of advice: Never come into the theatre with mud on your feet. Leave your dust and dirt outside. Check your little worries, squabbles, petty difficulties with your outside clothing - all the things that ruin your life and draw your attention away from your art - at the door.

We have as many planes of speech as does a painting planes of perspective which create perspective in a phrase. The most important word stands out most vividly defined in the very foreground of the sound plane. Less important words create a series of deeper planes.

The actor must use his imagination to be able to answer all questions (when, where, why, how). Make the make-believer existence more definite.
