Acting, Is Not A Profession

My Stage Successes Have Provided Me With The Greatest Moments Outside Myself, My Film Successes The Best Moments, Professionally, Within Myself.

I Believe In The Theater; I Believe In It As The First Glamorizer Of Thought. It Restores Dramatic Dynamics And Their Relations To Life Size.

I Believe That In A Great City, Or Even In A Small City Or A Village, A Great Theater Is The Outward And Visible Sign Of An Inward And Probable Culture.

Work Is Life For Me, It Is The Only Point Of Life - And With It There Is Almost Religious Belief That Service Is Everything.

You Must Have - Besides Intuition And Sensitivity - A Cutting Edge That Allows You To Reach What You Need. Also, You Have To Know Life - Bastards Included - And It Takes A Bit Of One To Know One, Don't You Think?
