I was an English major at UCLA when I was 18, and then I left after a year to start acting. I was educating myself during that time.
This act demonstrates graphically a turning away the past and moving ahead. You now get to refresh your time in a friendly way by running with the watch instead of against it or away from it.
I first decided that I wanted to act when I was 9. And I was at a very bizarre prep school at the time; to say 'high Anglo-Catholic' would be a real English understatement.
I grew up half the time in a small town called Mart, Texas, and half the time in L.A., because I was acting. My high school was crazy about football.
John Ventimiglia, who was on 'The Sopranos,' was in my first acting class and we have been friends since that time. Alec Baldwin was in my class back then, Sean Young and Andrew McCarthy.
Anthony Hopkins says you just keep acting. Do it all the time and eventually it will happen. He got his break, after all, by taking a role nobody else wanted. A cannibal!
You can get things out of acting with someone a second time around that you don't necessarily get the first time because you're more familiar, more comfortable.
I used to spend a lot of time at football training, but that time was later spent in amateur acting classes and my local youth theatre, in plays at school and after-school clubs. That filled the void.
The main thing for me is I really like strong endings. If there's a strong ending, you can take more time in the beginning, your first act can be really quite different.
I act because it's the one time I'm sure of my identity. There's no doubt. It's on paper.
Europe and America must act together in the face of evil. It's high time for Americans and Europeans to restore that unity and be able to take actions collectively together.
I was home-schooled. But going to high school, I never would've been able to travel the U.S. or been able to do acting.
Cavendish Look-A-Like Actor: This is a violation of the ruddy Incarceration Act! I will not be subjugated to criminal abuse!
Conner Rhodes: Why does your father act like a retard? Lucy: He is.
Jerry "The King" Lawler: Kaufman, did you come here to wrestle or act like an ass?
Barbara Covett: And Fatty Hodge pounced on her. A dubious double-act. The blonde... and the pig in knickers.
Acting is easy and fun. You earn a lot of money, and you bang out with girls. The profession is given tremendous significance within our society, but it's not really worthy of it.
When I graduated college I needed to make money while I was pursuing acting, so I read screenplays and made a living writing coverage on them for studios.
Passion is the thing that sustains you in acting. If you're doing it for fame and money, don't even bother because it will never happen. The last thing I ever expected was to be paid for this.
It stands to the everlasting credit of science that by acting on the human mind it has overcome man's insecurity before himself and before nature.
There is a certain enthusiasm in liberty, that makes human nature rise above itself, in acts of bravery and heroism.
