Vase Quotations I think acting is about forgetting yourself in order to give the best of yourself. It's passing through you more than you're creating it.

Derek Walcott You can only mend the vase so many times before you have to chuck it away. Christine McVie The flower in the vase smiles, but no longer laughs. Malcolm De Chazal
