Be yourself. The world worships the original.
A kiss is a lovely trick to stop speech.
Thank you for your coffee, seignior. I shall miss that when we leave Casablanca.
If you took acting away from me, I'd stop breathing.
I can do everything with ease on the stage, whereas in real life I feel too big and clumsy. So I didn't choose acting. It chose me.
