Humor is an attitude, a survivor’s way of looking at life. It’s not about telling jokes.

Every scene is a love scene. The actor should ask the question: 'Where is the love?'

Creating relationship is the heart of acting. It is basic. It is essential.

To go into acting is like asking for admission to an insane asylum. Anyone may apply, but only the certifiably insane are admitted.

An actor must make his needs (goals, wants, objectives) so strong that he is willing to interfere with the other actor in order to get what he needs. Interfering means getting in their way so that what you want is stronger than what they want.

Consistency is the death of good acting.

Competition [in a scene] is healthy. Competition is life. Yet most actors refuse to acknowledge this. They don't want to compete. They want to get along. And they are therefore not first-rate actors.
