You don't have to do anything.

Nearly always when actors are approached by the beauticians, they try to avoid the dabs that the beauticians put on their faces. They dodge them.

I have to work in England, but here in America you don't have to work. You can sort of enter the profession of being.

Nowadays people don't use face powder; they say it dries the skin. But I makeup in the old-fashioned way.

America believes in freedom. The English don't believe in it. They don't believe in happiness.

My outlook was so limited that I assumed that all deviates were openly despised and rejected. Their grief and their fear drew my melancholy nature strongly. At first I only wanted to wallow in their misery, but, as time went by, I longed to reach its very essence. Finally I desired to represent it. By this process I managed to shift homosexuality from being a burden to being a cause. The weight lifted and some of the guilt evaporated.

No effort is required to define or even attain happiness, but enormous concentration is needed to abandon everything else.
