Englisches Zitat von George Combe als Bild

Phrenology taught us that the mind thinks by means of the brain, is liable to become fatigued by too long attention, as the locomotive muscles are by too much walking; and I therefore proposed to them to take a brief rest.

George Combe

Deutsche Übersetzung

Die Phrenologie lehrte uns, dass der Geist durch das Gehirn denkt, sich durch zu lange Aufmerksamkeit ermüden könnte, da die Lokomotivenmuskeln durch zu viel Gehen laufen; und ich schlug ihnen daher vor, eine kurze Pause einzulegen.

I want to give the audience a hint of a scene. No more than that. Give them too much and they won't contribute anything themselves. Give them just a suggestion and you get them working with you. That's what gives the theater meaning: when it becomes a social act.

For me, I try not to think about it too much, because you find that if you think about it too much, then you start to panic at every little thing that goes on in training.

Englisches Zitat von Leon Redbone als Bild

I think of these things as obstacles rather than opportunities, because if they were opportunities it means I actually took the business of doing them seriously. To take myself too seriously is the gentle kiss of death.

Well yes so far, I was recently in Germany and they had me do six book signings a day and that was too much so I had them cut it down to about three. It becomes taxing at times but its a lot of fun and you meet a lot of nice people.

I don't look into myself too much. I don't think I'm shy so much as a better listener than I am a speaker. I just really don't wish for attention.

The conquest of the earth, which mostly means the taking it away from those who have a different complexion or slightly flatter noses than ourselves, is not a pretty thing when you look into it too much.

Englisches Zitat von Julie Christie als Bild

I don't think I would have been a good mother. Being a parent brings immense responsibility. It's a Herculean task. It would be almost too much for me.

The biggest reason most people fail is that they try to fix too much at once - join a gym, get out of debt, floss after meals and have thinner thighs in 30 days.

I'd like to think there'll be too much of real life going on for me to want to do much acting.
