TV is so different from the movies. It takes a lot of stamina because you work such long hours. It is really challenging. You are learning the next day's lines while you are shooting today's scenes. I found courage I never realised I had. I hope to do more.
Sharon Stone

I do tend to take lines from other lines I like, and then write around them.
Syd Barrett

Oh yes. I'm an actor, so I just learn my lines, and show up and do it. I gave it a little bit of thought.
Anthony Hopkins

Ironically, it is exactly because we are a city that embraces freedom, that welcomes everyone and encourages their dreams, that New York remains on the front lines in the war on terror.
Michael Bloomberg

Michael Bloomberg

I remember certain lines and whose they are.
Warren Zevon

You need to become a good listener. As you're working, you hear someone else's lines and how you absorb them becomes your acting.
Jacqueline Bisset

A graphic representation of data abstracted from the banks of every computer in the human system. Unthinkable complexity. Lines of light ranged in the nonspace of the mind, clusters and constellations of data. Like city lights, receding.
William Gibson

As a matter of principle, I always come to a film like a blank slate, I don't learn my lines in advance. With this approach, I feel clean.
Jeanne Moreau

I always know my lines.
Vivien Leigh

So I just play the character, I play the lines.
Fiona Shaw

I went along to the audition and I had one page of lines, and I didn't think it went particularly well.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

You cannot make peace with terrorists. The normal dividing lines between war and peace do not apply.
Ulrich Beck

I felt a little green, because Shakespeare writes the thought process within the text; it was tricky not to think of what to say and then say it, and instead just deliver the lines.
Neil Patrick Harris

There are movies that require fantasy and slightly more fantastical acting. Lines that are good for certain movies, in real life circumstances, would be absolutely unbelievable things to really say, and you would look at these people like they're freaks for conversing that way. But somehow for certain styles of movies, it works, and it seems fine.
Christian Bale

Sometimes in a movie, the lines are so perfect.
Jimmy Fallon

I do not use any set methods, not even The Method. The character after all is in the lines.
Donald Pleasence

Just say the lines and don't trip over the furniture.
Noel Coward

You can't just sit there and do the lines. You have to do something revealing or unusual.
Elia Kazan

Sometimes I try to improve the language, the lines, or the delivery, but I don't ad-lib because I think that makes it really hard for everybody else involved.
Harrison Ford
