How it works

I just try not to subscribe to the ways of celebrity. I'm not a celebrity, I'm a working actor. A lot of the events - the parties and the premieres that people go to to get noticed - I'm just not into. I'll hang out with my friends, go see punk shows, read at home. At the same time, I have a production company, which is a lot of work.

Milo Ventimiglia
I was used to playing misled youth, rough-and-tumble guys. It was nice to get back to a big-hearted, warm and gentle soul, a guy who is destined for something a lot larger than he ever expected.

My sisters and mom raised me to respect women and open doors for them.
Milo Ventimiglia
I'm tough on the outside and soft on the inside... I'm really a shy guy.

When I was starting to get noticed as an actor in the 1970s for something other than the third cowboy on the right who ended up dying in every movie or episode, Burt Reynolds was the biggest star in the world.
Bruce Dern
Most parts that can be played by one actor can equally well be played by another, but not this.
Kenneth More
I think, frankly, that I'm a better director than I was an actor.
Jonathan Frakes
I knew an actor's career goes up and down and back up again. Your standing in this business can't be your whole identity; otherwise, you're doomed.
Lisa Kudrow
I don't think any actor feels comfortable watching themselves in movies. You must be very narcissistic. The problem with your own opinion of yourself is that contrary to the normal spectators, when you watch a film you are in, you only watch yourself.
Omar Sharif
I don't think there has been any increase in sophistication in the audience. When people are aware of a concept that's easy to understand, and there's an actor who will attract them to the theater and it's a movie that's funny three-quarters of the time, it will be successful.
David Zucker
I never dreamed about being an actor, because that was out of reach. Coming from a small town that was big in farming, and also big in clothing factories, you don't dream about being a professional football player or an actor.
Herschel Walker
My goal was always to be recognized as a good actor but no one was interested in that, simply because society just wants to warm towards your appearance. This is the great blemish of society.
Jude Law
If you really do want to be an actor who can satisfy himself and his audience, you need to be vulnerable.
Jack Lemon
To be honest with you, when I got into this I never thought about reviews. I never thought about what people would say about me. I was just a young guy who was excited to become a comedian and an actor and I just wanted to get to do what I got to do.
Adam Sandler

Puff Daddy
There are roles I want that my agency might not want me to do because of the subject matter or whatever. Or there are roles that people won't bring to me because they don't think I'll do it. And that is a big strain because an actor wants to act.
Cuba Gooding, Jr.
Reality is, I'm an actor and an entertainer, and I really wouldn't know what to do with another profession.

Follow the wisdom of the great actor, James Cagney, you hit your mark, you look the other guy in the eye, and you tell the truth.
Larry Merchant
I was always a character actor. I just looked like Little Red Riding Hood.
Paul Newman
In other words, I wouldn't like to be an actor if I could only be real. I like to get wild, behaviorally wild, and it's crazy to think of any form where it's just one way.
Jack Nicholson
An actor entering through the door, you've got nothing. But if he enters through the window, you've got a situation.

I didn't want to be an actor.

I'm always looking, as an actor, for activities. I think it's far more interesting to watch what people do than what they say. You always want to watch behavior, because the dialogue as written by our illustrious leaders is great. Eminently playable.
Adam Baldwin
That's always something that's really important for an actor - to find an opportunity to do a scene where there is a moment like that, where you manage to connect with everyone.
Bruce Davison
In the editing room, 20 percent of the time you're using stuff from before the actor knew the camera was rolling or you're taking a line from somewhere else and putting it in his mouth.
Campbell Scott
And, you know, when you are a kid, everybody wants to be an actor. I think that everybody wants to be in show business, frankly.
Brent Spiner
An actor is at most a poet and at least an entertainer.
Marlon Brando
To wait, for an actor, is not like someone who's waiting to see the doctor. It's not the kind of wait where you get bored.
Catherine Deneuve
Every actor wants to direct.
Theodore Bikel
I'll always be there because I'm a skilled professional actor. Whether or not I've any talent is beside the point.
Michael Caine
