Acting is the use of human experience with talent added.

Life is getting through the moment. The philosopher William James says to cultivate the cheerful attitude. Now nobody had more trouble than he did -- except me. I had more trouble in my life than anybody. But your first big trouble can be a bonanza if you live through it. Get through the first trouble, you'll probably make it through the next one.

I feel that much of the world's sorrow comes from people who are this, yet allow themselves to be treated as that.

Acting is the use of human experience with talent added.

The good that men do lives after them.

Sometimes what you want you don't get until you don't want it anymore.

You have to have a talent for having talent.
