Description
"I think the prime reason for existence, for living in this world is discovery."
"When an actor plays a scene exactly the way a director orders, it isn't acting. It's following instructions. Anyone with the physical qualifications can do that. So the director's task is just that to direct, to point the way. Then the actor takes over. And he must be allowed the space, the freedom to express himself in the role. Without that space, an actor is no more than an unthinking robot with a chest-full of push-buttons."
"If a man can bridge the gap between life and death ... I mean, if he can live on after his death, then maybe he was a great man."
[on acting] "You can do Hamlet while performing cartwheels . . . as long as the audience sees your eyes - you can make the performance real."
(When speaking to a friend) "Death can't be considered, because if you're afraid to die there's no room in your life to make discoveries."
"I think I am gong to make it because on one hand I am like Clift saying help me and of the other hand I am Brando saying, 'Screw you!', and somewhere in between is James Dean."
"I think the prime reason for existence, for living in this world, is discovery."
"Being an actor is the loneliest thing in the world. You are all alone with your concentration and imagination, and that's all you have."
"The cinema is a very truthful medium because the camera doesn't let you get away with anything. On stage you can even loaf a little, if you're so inclined."
"To me, acting is the most logical way for people's neuroses to manifest themselves."
[Being asked about his sexual orientation] "No, I am not a homosexual. But, I'm also not going to go through life with one hand tied behind my back." - James Dean, 1931-1955
