Quotes about acting and actors

  • “I was trained to be an actor, not a star. I was trained to play roles, not to deal with fame and agents and lawyers and the press.” (Bull Deborah)
  • “My mother told me I was begging her to be an actor when I was four. My father and my grandfather saw at least one or two movies a week; they were film buffs, so I guess it just rubbed off on me. And now it's kind of become a way of life for me.” (Bull Deborah)
  • When I met De Niro, it was like Wow! (Bull Deborah)
  • To me acting originally became an extension of game playing. Childhood games, and that kinda grew into something else. As I've got older it's changed and it's moved more towards self-understanding about how other people escape into other worlds. It's become me trying to open doors into other people. (Bull Deborah)
  • Acting is invigorating. But I don't analyse it too much. It's like a dog smelling where it's going to do its toilet in the morning. (Bull Deborah)
  • Acting with creatures that aren't there is kind like acting with an actor who refuses to come out of his trailer. You still have to go on and do the scene. (Bull Deborah)
  • I'm not the kind of actor that would know what my character had for breakfast last Tuesday. (Bull Deborah)
  • Well, from an acting point of view, I bear no relation, I don't look like Alfred Kinsey at all, but I thought somewhere in my artist's soul, my actor's soul, I could capture something of the spirit of the man. (Bull Deborah)
  • An actor's life particularly is what they lived and how they've osmosized what they've lived into the work and tried to say something. (Bull Deborah)
  • “You couldn't have designed a more perfect training ground for young actors, with a sort of sensei (mentor) like with Francis, ... He just knew how to play each of us like a violin.” (Bull Deborah)
  • “You couldn't have designed a more perfect training ground for young actors, with a sort of sensei (mentor) like with Francis. He just knew how to play each of us like a violin.” (Bull Deborah)
  • It'd be disingenuous to say I don't like attention - I'm an actor for God's sake - and it's flattering and all, but attention was never my big goal. I just like to work and have a good time. (Bull Deborah)
  • I read a lot of scripts. Most of 'em go to other actors. (Bull Deborah)
  • I'm a big Adam Sandler fan. (Bull Deborah)
  • I've played a baby panda bear to a gorilla to an alien, but Austin Powers 2 is definitely my biggest role ever. Hopefully, it's not my last! (Bull Deborah)
  • Just being able to work with Mike Myers and everybody in the whole cast was a great experience. It was like a big party all the time. (Bull Deborah)
  • Me being able to beat up Austin Powers? I mean, how great can that be? (Bull Deborah)
  • Acting is magical. Change your look and your attitude, and you can be anyone. (Bull Deborah)
  • “I'm limited, so, I kind of know where I fit as an actress. I kind of get it now, finally, after all of these years of trying to be a dramatic actress. I kind of think that'd I'd like to continue dealing with these things in a funny, lighter vein, but also truthful and honest.” (Bull Deborah)
  • I had to smoke for a role when I was 15, and it kind of stuck. I made all these plans to quit this year, but then I got a role in a De Niro movie, and I smoke in that. (Bull Deborah)
  • I loved wearing the catsuits; it was so cool! And with the actors who came in for cameos! It was like, who's coming today? It was really exciting! (Bull Deborah)
  • I play the girlfriend of Robert DeNiro's son. I was totally star struck. He's so talented. (Bull Deborah)
  • I remember hitting Sarah Michelle Gellar with a right hook during my first week on the job. It was awful. They usually pair actors with stunt doubles to avoid things like that. (Bull Deborah)
  • “[Who will play Johnny?] Keanu Reeves is still on to do it, ... I think he'll be great.” (Bull Deborah)
  • “I played a girl. There's really nothing controversial about her. She's just fine. She has to be fine in order to make Sarah Jessica's character pop, ... I say I just play a white girl in that movie.” (Bull Deborah)

  • I wouldn't mind making some good movies. I don't know why you have to be 25 to star in a movie. Or 30. (Melanie Griffith) [mind/movie]

  • Worst Quote

  • “I should start off by saying that I have a very deep affection for American Idol . It's a brilliant show, an absolute phenomenon in the history of television, and I'm not just saying that because they had me on as a guest judge and performer last year -- I truly enjoy the show and would watch it even if the contestants didn't sing my songs as part of the competition and keep my music in the minds of the record-buying public. Now, William Hung ... well, he's certainly no Clay Aiken, my all-time favorite American Idol participant for obvious reasons. But I have a special fondness for William, too -- after all, when I was starting out, people said I was funny-looking and couldn't sing. And even when I became a gigantic pop star in the '70s, I had nearly as many people who hated me as adored me, and let me tell you, a lot of people adored me! Now, could William have done a better job singing my song 'It's a Miracle,' which you can find on several of my Greatest Hits albums? Probably. But if he keeps at it despite what the millions of people who despise him think, then perhaps one day he, too, will sign an eight-year deal to entertain at the Las Vegas Hilton on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday nights, two shows on Saturday, senior citizen and group discounts available.” (Barry Manilow) [start/absolute/phenomenon/television]
