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

The first step to a better audition is to give up character and use yourself.

If we lived for reality, we'd be dead, every last one of us. Only dreams keep us going.

Conflict is what creates drama. The more conflict actors find, the more interesting the performance.

We don't live for realities, but for the fantasies, the dreams of what might be. If we lived for reality, we'd be dead, every last one of us. Only dreams keep us going...When you are acting, don't settle for anything less than the biggest dream for your character's future.

Most actors make themselves unhappy by searching for their sanity, by insisting on their normalcy; it's a grave mistake.

There's only one reason why a character drinks: to seek confrontation. To fight for what they want in ways normally denied them.
