I'm curious about other people. That's the essence of my acting. I'm interested in what it would be like to be you.
Meryl Streep

I have four to five months, tops, per year to give to my acting work.
Meryl Streep

I can see clearly now... that I was wrong in not acting more decisively and more forthrightly in dealing with Watergate.
Richard M. Nixon

One of the cruelest judgments sustained against me is that I have spoken out as a recovered alcoholic to stimulate my acting career.
Mercedes McCambridge

I don't want to stop acting, but acting in some ways is a young man's game.
Kevin Bacon

I just let the work speak for itself. An actor is not afraid to take risks; to put on different hats; to be a good guy, a bad guy, a victim, an abuser. There are all kinds of people in the world, and playing them is what acting is all about.
Kevin Bacon

In those days, reserve duty lasted for six years, which, I might add, was three times as long as service in the regular army, although to be perfectly honest, I was unable to fulfill my entire obligation because I was taking acting classes and they said I could skip my last year.
Larry David

Some scenes you juggle two balls, some scenes you juggle three balls, some scenes you can juggle five balls. The key is always to speak in your own voice. Speak the truth. That's Acting 101. Then you start putting layers on top of that.
John Burroughs

I've done one movie. And it's not a movie I want to stand on as far as acting ability goes. I mean, I'm not going to win an Oscar anytime soon. I'm not Meryl Streep.
Megan Fox

A little acting debut in Spin City, with Michael J. Fox, which opened up a whole new door for me.
Heidi Klum

All companies of any size have to continue to push to make sure you get the right leaders, the right team, the right people to be fast acting, and fast moving in the marketplace. We've got great leaders, and we continue to attract and promote great new leaders.
Steve Ballmer

No one is truly free, they are a slave to wealth, fortune, the law, or other people restraining them from acting according to their will.
Euripides

This is as true in everyday life as it is in battle: we are given one life and the decision is ours whether to wait for circumstances to make up our mind, or whether to act, and in acting, to live.
Omar N. Bradley

One of the things about acting is it allows you to live other people's lives without having to pay the price.
Robert De Niro

When I'm acting, I'm two beings. There's the one monitoring the distance between myself and the camera, making sure I hit my marks, and there is the one driven by this inner fire, this delicious fear.
Jeanne Moreau

Stardom is only a by-product of acting. I don't think being a movie star is a good enough reason for existing.
Natalie Wood

More than in any other performing arts the lack of respect for acting seems to spring from the fact that every layman considers himself a valid critic.
Simone Weil

I feel I'm two people: I have my interest in acting and I have a lot of other political interests I'd like to pursue.
Alec Baldwin

Great acting may be a turn-on, but it won't make me fantasize about the person for a week.
Sandra Bullock

Nobody is more truthful when he's acting than De Niro.
Billy Crystal
