Working Actor Quotes (page 7)

Charles Keating quote: "You know, working as an actor, I'm always working within my..."
You know, working as an actor, I'm always working within my own imagination. Charles Keating
The goal for me is always to have the opportunity to work in different genres. This is a great and exciting time in my career, where I can have the opportunity to work in different genres, and also I recognize there's not a lot of actors who have that opportunity and I'm grateful for it. Dwayne Johnson
I start with actors that I know personally or I know their work, and there are things about their work or their presence or their own personality that make a character, that exaggerates some qualities and suppresses other qualities. It's always a real collaboration for me. Jim Jarmusch
I want to work with great directors. I want to work on good material with good actors. I've probably done 20 movies at this point and a lot of independents. It's been an incredible ride and I love it and I'm just going to keep going and doing what I'm doing. Famke Janssen
Out of all the actors I have worked with, I love working with Larry Hagman the most. We were very close and it was just a wonderful time. Barbara Eden
It makes me feel good that I can now sit there and go, I've worked with Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino, all the great actors that I've worked with... Sir Ben Kingsley. Aaron Eckhart
I've always felt that I would rather see an actor, writer, or musician's work, rather than actually know the person. If you know too much about an artist, it somehow lessens their ability to do their work as well. Christian Bale
Darren Aronofsky quote: "I only want to work with actors that really get it and make it..."
I only want to work with actors that really get it and make it work. I didn't want it to be a star-driven thing anymore. Darren Aronofsky
The beautiful thing about it is that no two directors or actors work the same way. You also learn not to be afraid of discussion and conflict. Ewan McGregor
Once you look past the hype, actors are nothing more than fugitives from reality who specialize in contradiction: we are both children and hardened adults—wide-eyed pupils and jaded working stiffs. Bruce Campbell
Ken didn't die for your benefit, you know. It's like everyone's a supporting actor in the flm of your life story." Of course. Isn't that how it works for everybody? Nick Hornby
Way back when the Sam Peckinpah film The Wild Bunch premiered, a woman journalist raised her hand at the press conference and asked the following: “Why in the world do you have to show so much blood all over the place?” She was pretty worked up about it. One of the actors, Ernest Borgnine, looked a bit perplexed and fielded the question. “Lady, did you ever see anyone shot by a gun without bleeding?” This film came out at the height of the Vietnam War. I love that ... Haruki Murakami
It's only just beginning to occur to me that it's important to have something going on somewhere, at work or at home, otherwise you're just clinging on. [...] You need as much ballast as possible to stop you floating away; you need people around you, things going on, otherwise life is like some film where the money ran out, and there are no sets, or locations, or supporting actors, and it's just one guy on his own staring into the camera with nothing to do and nobody to speak to, and who'd... Nick Hornby
Who is willing to be satisfied with a job that expresses all his limitations? He will accept such work only as a 'means of livelihood' while he waits to discover his 'true vocation'. The world is full of unsuccessful businessmen who still secretly believe they were meant to be artists or writers or actors in the movies. Thomas Merton
The actor's realm is that of the fleeting. Of all kinds of fame, it is known, his is the most ephemeral. At least, this is said in conversation. But all kinds of fame are ephemeral.
