Back then, my idol was Bugs Bunny, because I saw a cartoon of him playing ball - you know, the one where he plays every position himself with nobody else on the field but him? Now that I think of it, Bugs is still my idol. You have to love a ballplayer like that.

I decided at age 9, but I was reinforced at age 13 when a teacher told me I had talent. I can't say she really motivated me because I already knew. I knew I had talent. I went to the Jewish community theater and got in plays there. Then I went for the movies.'

My education was doing good plays and also stinkers. When you do a stinker, you learn how to act. I like having to audition. It's nice to do rehearsals. But it's with an audience that you get to love it!
Jeffrey Tambor

Every professional athlete owes a debt of gratitude to the fans and management, and pays an installment every time he plays. He should never miss a payment.
Bobby Hull

This outfit called Los Angeles Theatre Works does readings of plays.
Jeffrey Jones

And people do enjoy the plays at completely different levels. And, likewise, they enjoy the authorship question... at completely different levels.
Mark Rylance

I write plays for people who wouldn't be seen dead in the theatre.
Barrie Keeffe

A good place to start initially would be school plays.
Sara Gilbert

As we have more women in power, so the plays and the TV dramas are reflecting what's happening.
Felicity Kendal

I write my plays to create an excuse for full-tilt acting and performing.
Eric Bogosian

Zac Efron is like a brother who's just goofy and crazy. He plays a lot of practical jokes.
Ashley Tisdale

And it is a very beautiful idea, and possibly true, that a common man from Stratford with a common education was able to write these plays.
Mark Rylance

I thought I might be a band instructor, someone who plays all the instruments and teaches others.
Adrian Belew

In my plays I want to look at life - at the commonplace of existence-as if we had just turned a corner and run into it for the first time.
