You know, for an actor to come into the midst of that, it's - It can either be difficult and somewhat unnerving, or it can be very embracing and like, kind of stepping into a nice hot tub. (Bull Deborah)
But then acting is all about faking. We're all very good at faking things that we have no competence with. (Bull Deborah)
I tend to have an odd split in my mind: I tend to look at it as a writer and when the writing thing is OK and I'm happy with it, then I put on my actor's hat. (Bull Deborah)
I was very sad to hear of the death of Ronnie Barker, who was such a warm, friendly and encouraging presence to have when I started in television. He was also a great comic actor to learn from. (Bull Deborah)
A lot of actors in my age bracket look at being still standing as pretty good. (Bull Deborah)
I have a theory about that, if you have to say something, if you have encourage for one second a prospective acting student - he should not go in to acting. (Bull Deborah)
I think that you get something for your acting from almost anything you do. (Bull Deborah)
No not pigeon holed me as an actor, or as a character, or as to what I could do - but what I would do... and the fact is the things you don't do are almost as important as as the things that you do. (Bull Deborah)
The next night I got on an airplane, and flew to New York and looked into acting schools. Four or five acting schools. One of which was the Neighborhood Playhouse, which I started at six months there after. (Bull Deborah)
There is something about New York City that in and of itself is so theatrical hat I use to think... I use to feel when I walked out of my apartment on the way to school or anywhere that I was walking out on stage. (Bull Deborah)
I have no shortage of material or offers, it's just a case of what you select to do. But I think it's realistic that my chances of playing Romeo are now over. (Bull Deborah)
Perhaps I'm not a good actor, but I would be even worse at doing anything else. (Bull Deborah)
I've known Harvey for over 40 years and I worked with him on the Burnett show for 11 years. I guess you could say we're about as close as you can get to being a comedy team. (Bull Deborah)
I would also like to act, once in a while, but not get up every morning at 5:30 or six o'clock and pound into the studio and get home at 7:30 or eight o'clock at night, or act over and over and over every night on Broadway, either. (Bull Deborah)
People like Spencer Tracy held up because they had the background originally, but to this day they never have changed Mr. Gable's role, or most of them. (Bull Deborah)
Well, they just don't know anything else except that one form of their business, acting, and they don't really want to learn any other part of it, or they would. Directing and producing and putting a show together is very creative, for me. (Bull Deborah)
I got out of college and I went to get my master's in creative writing at San Francisco State. I was working as an actor at the Actor's Workshop, being abused as a intern. (Bull Deborah)
Reality is, I'm an actor and an entertainer, and I really wouldn't know what to do with another profession. (Bull Deborah)
I didn't become an actor to have power, but it just happens that I have it and so I have a lot of opportunities. (Bull Deborah)
The exciting part of acting, I don't know how else to explain it, are those moments when you surprise yourself. (Bull Deborah)
What I find sometimes that is tricky is if actors are using too much of their own life in a picture, in a scene, they get locked into a particular way to play the scene, and it lacks an immediacy. (Bull Deborah)
