Everything Michael Jackson does on stage is exactly right.
Sammy Davis, Jr.

If the gig's going really well, I'm incredibly happy on stage and really feel good about my life and things.
James Taylor

When I'm on stage, I'm trying to do one thing: bring people joy. Just like church does. People don't go to church to find trouble, they go there to lose it.
James Brown

It's about what happens on stage, whether we can deliver it in a hungry way that is who we are in our hearts.
Nikki Sixx

No, no, I was only funny on stage, really. I, I, think I was funny as a person toward my classmates when I was very young. You know, when I was a child, up to about the age of 12.

Anthony Hopkins

I like the good life too much, I'm not good at going on stage night after night and on wet Wednesday afternoons.
Anthony Hopkins

I knew that this was what I wanted to talk about on stage. There was no point being coy about it, or pretending that I wasn't gay. That was the substance of my whole act. If you took that away, there would be nothing left.

I don't really like to play live. I don't like to be on stage. I feel very self-conscious.
Peter Steele

I really feel there's no limitation on what this band can do in the studio or on the stage. That's an empowering feeling - that we can bring a song to life.
Ben Harper

For the stage displays the first vigorous expression, as the natural thing and without conspicuous restraint, of private individuality.
Lascelles Abercrombie

Americans want grungy people, stabbing themselves in the head on stage. They get a bright bunch like us, with deodorant on, they don't get it.
Liam Gallagher

Dresses, I find, are impractical in social situations, but I enjoy wearing them a great deal on stage.
Brian Molko

I'm leaving the screen because I don't think I am very good in the pictures and I have this beautiful dream that I'm elegant on the stage.
Helen Hayes

Politics, where fat, bald, disagreeable men, unable to be candidates themselves, teach a president how to act on a public stage.
Jimmy Breslin

At this stage, what would be rewarding would be for audiences to want to watch.
Sean Penn
