Personal Quotes

I couldn't possibly fail to agree to disagree with you less!

A conceiver's job is to create the conception. First comes the conceiver then comes the conception. I express what I feel. Change the impression and the expression will change. The impression other characters have on me defines the way I express myself and that's why I find the auditioning process so difficult. One must create a technique unlike any other. In the audition process we are responsible for interpreting the other persons intent and for my simple mind I prefer the real thing ... or real person.

An actor is a scientist of the mind, a master of the will, the forgiver of all behavior. If anyone knows the meaning of relative thought, it's an actor. We judge not. The oxygen we breathe may carry more for us than the obvious. It may carry past lives and the influence of lives not yet lived. Oxygen charges our senses and forces us to connect to the relativity of life. Who else but an actor would know what a tree feels like? Welcome to the world of a know it all!

Scientology, religion, whatever. My theory is we are a product of oxygen like the rest of nature and one day I will end up as tree food! With the increasing level of oxygen we will continue to evolve, unless the level of oxygen decreases.
