For my senior year, I'm home schooled. It's working well with the acting. Juggling school with the acting is hard, but you know, what can you do?
I never gave it that much thought to pursue acting or anything, but I would definitely be a Bond girl if they asked me. For sure - I would make a great evil Bond girl!
I've always had a passion for acting, without really realising that that's what I should be doing.
Acting is nothing more or less than playing. The idea is to humanize life.
The biggest mistake in student films is that they are usually cast so badly, with friends and people the directors know. Actually you can cover a lot of bad direction with good acting.
I have always enjoyed performing, but I think when I was in the fifth grade was when I discovered that I really loved acting.
Acting doesn't bring anything to a text. On the contrary, it detracts from it.
If you're used to being a maverick, then people don't get surprised when you start acting strangely.
I really wasn't even sure if I should continue acting. I would like try and figure out if I could be good enough to do it. It was like 10 or 12 years into my career before I felt like maybe I can do it. It was such a different time than now.
I don't remember ever not knowing about acting.
I was an acting opera singer, and that's one of the reasons I left opera.
Neither of my parents are involved in theater or acting, but they are very artistic. My mom is a painter; she's an artist. She went to school for fashion illustration. My father is into collecting antiques and fine wine, so they're both really creative people.
I think acting is about forgetting yourself in order to give the best of yourself. It's passing through you more than you're creating it. You're not the flower, but the vase which holds the flower.
Both my parents were actors. I was schooled to think that acting was an important social service, that it was something that human beings need.
Voice work is fun. But about three-quarters of the things you enjoy about acting are just not there. You're not working with another actor; you're not working with an audience. You're just working with a bunch of writers and a microphone. It's very abstract.
Politicians are usually the first to forget that if you assume someone else is acting in bad faith, they will do the same to you. Questioning motives poisons the well.
I booked my first series when I was 13. Acting kind of took control because I was just going from part to part at that point.
I love the art of acting, and I love film, because you always have another chance if you want it. You know, if we - if this isn't going well, you can't say - well, you could say - let's stop. Let's start over again, Gene, because you were too nervous.
With acting, you see some of the kids are literally just off the street, untrained, and they are great. And others are off the street, untrained, and kind of horrible.
Ever since I was a very little girl, I've dreamed of acting.
Some of the joy in acting is switching it up: being able to do something that's different than what you've been doing.
I don't see it as a form of healing, because if you have wounds that are bleeding I don't think acting will ever get them to stop. But I find acting is a form of illumination.
I love acting. I do it as a hobby. If I was able to have that as a career... Hopefully the fashion thing is a stepping-stone. I was so worried when I started modeling that it would hinder my chances of acting.
Acting is about acting, not about being a movie star.
I remember having friends in high school that did the theater department stuff, and I always wanted to try it but never had the guts to. I was the class clown but could never really build up the courage to try it. I took one acting class and really enjoyed it.
I'm acting when I serve as a hostess, when I run my wig business. I was born to act, and life itself is the greatest part.
Real acting is realistic no matter what the medium.
Acting with Denzel is like playing tennis with someone that's better than you. You either play better tennis or get blown off the court.
When you're performing, you're playing to the back row. With acting, you have to be more nuanced.
Really, acting is like anything else. The more time you put in, the more you learn and the more you can give back to the industry.
I suddenly discovered that acting made girls notice me.
Acting is fun for me and it doesn't really matter how, whether it's hard work or easy work, it's always fun.
I really take acting seriously.
I always wanted to be a film-maker when I was younger, not an actor. I was an eight-year-old who dreamed of being a writer on 'The Simpsons,' which was a weird dream to have. But I started taking acting classes as a way to learn how to direct actors and I sort of fell in love with it.
Acting - you're taking someone else's visions and someone else's inspirations, and it's up to you to portray that to everyone watching the film.
I loved acting, and then acting led to writing, and writing led to directing, and directing lead to five movies, and I feel like the luckiest guy in the world.
