I Tell My Children To Avoid Theatre

We Were Doing It Under The Most Extraordinary Circumstances, But The First Out Of The Tent In The Morning Would Be David Lean. He Said To Me On The Very First Day Of Shooting, Pete, This Is The Beginning Of A Great Adventure.

When Did I Realize I Was God? Well, I Was Praying And I Suddenly Realized I Was Talking To Myself.

I Can't Tell You About Acting. You Can Develop All The Skills, Voice, Gesture, Movement, You Can Develop By Exercise And Practice But Finally Fundamentally It's Mining From Yourself, From Your Own Personality, From What You Know. If You Can't Know It You Can Have A Good Guess By People You Know Or Books You've Read.

I Do Not Choose To Be A Common Man…it Is My Right To Be Uncommon—if I Can…i Seek Opportunity—not Security…i Want To Take The Calculated Risk; To Dream And To Build, To Fail And To Succeed… To Refuse To Barter Incentive For A Dole… I Prefer The Challenges Of Life To The Guaranteed Existence, The Thrill Of Fulfillment To The Stale Calm Of Utopias….

I Will Not Be A Common Man. I Will Stir The Smooth Sands Of Monotony.
