Acting in a scene is like paddling a canoe from a pebbly beach on to the river, the writer builds the canoe, and the actor provides the river. The river is the actor's thoughts and emotions.

The truth of your instincts is the root of your foundation.

There's no such thing as nothing.

You don't pick up cues, you pick up impulses.

Listen with your gut, not your head.

You can't learn to act unless you're criticized. If you tie that criticism to your childhood insecurities you'll have a terrible time. Instead, you must take criticism objectively, pertaining it only to the work being done.

WHY is the most important word in an actor's vocabulary.
