Actors often behave like children, and so we're taken for children. I want to be grown up.
Jeremy Irons
The actor is an athlete of the heart.
ANTONIN ARTAUD
An actor is at most a poet and at least an entertainer.
Marlon Brando
Actors die so loud.
Henry Miller
Acting deals with very delicate emotions. It is not putting up a mask. Each time an actor acts he does not hide; he exposes himself.
Rodney Dangerfield
A good actor must never be in love with anyone but himself.
Jean Anouilh
Actors are loved because they are unoriginal. Actors stick to their script. The unoriginal man is loved by the mediocrity because this kind of ''artistic'' expression is something to which the merest five-eighth can climb.
Patrick Kavanagh
Actors ought to be larger than life. You come across quite enough ordinary, nondescript people in daily life and I don't see why you should be subjected to them on the stage too.
Donald Sinden
The real actor has a direct line to the collective heart.
Bette Davis
We become actors without realizing it, and actors without wanting to.
Henri Frederic Amiel
