Put in other terms, you become angry with yourself rather than with the one who hurt you.

Julie GarwoodThe only tool we have as artists is selectivity. If you're a painter, you select the color, the lines, how severe they should be. As an actor you develop how angry you should be.

What I do is I call on my experience on the stage. I play the scene and I hope that I reach a certain level of integrity because that's what I learned on the stage.

Why worry about how we build our lives if the ultimate ending for all is death, a single breath away? (358)
