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

Acting in theatre or television or screen is only for the irrecoverably diseased, those so smitten with the need that there is no choice.

Consistency is the death of good acting.

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

An expression of feeling isn't worth anything unless it interferes with what the other actor in the scene wants.

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

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