I feel lucky. I think acting can help to keep you young. It does make you feel there's meaning in your life.
I move on stage differently. The more you act, anyway, the more you live, your perception of life becomes more and more accurate.
In real life I'm very low-key. A wallflower. One of the reasons I went into comedy and acting was that I was sick of being shy.
I learned so much by being an actor, and part of my sort-of development as a writer is big thanks to the scripts I read in my acting life.
Ideas have a short shelf life. You must act on them before the expiration date.
Acting for me is finding those things that, finding the strings of humanity that tie us all together. And you only find that by living life and loving and breaking up.
I had been singing all my life, but I started acting in high school.
I like to be able to play a character and act out a lot of things which I can't or don't do in my normal everyday life.
There is a guilty pleasure in being rude and knowing that it's acting rather than you. But you get the same release as if you were being rude in life.
I planned so well for my post-'Cosby Show' life that I don't have to make desperate acting choices that conflict with what my values.
I have the luxury of being a little boy... To me, the most important thing in life is to be a human being. Second is acting.
Want balance in your life? Then sure, get your own act together, but don't forget four powerful disciplines of execution in your team and organization.
But most of what I've learned about acting - and a lot of what I've learned about life in the past seven years - was taught to me by Robert Altman.
There's really nothing else I'm going to do with my life. I'd be useless if I weren't singing or acting.
Acting is an escape from the boring person that I am in real life.
I love the craft of acting, I love learning, I love everything that comes with the new project; the whole process is totally intoxicating to me.
People usually think according to their inclinations, speak according to their learning and ingrained opinions, but generally act according to custom.
You can always keep learning with acting, because the school is life and yourself and your friends and your relationships. I'm fascinated by it! It's infinito!
I had done the child acting thing, which is pretty much learning your lines, standing there looking natural, and having fun.
Having a child is surely the most beautifully irrational act that two people in love can commit.
I had heard about how people struggle and how hard it is to get into acting. But I did not care because it's something I love.
