• An actor must interpret life, and in order to do so must be willing to accept all the experiences life has to offer. In fact, he must seek out more of life than life puts at his feet. In the short span of his lifetime, an actor must learn all there is to know, experience all there is to experience, or approach that state as closely as possible. He must be superhuman in his efforts to store away in the core of his subconscious everything that he might be called upon to use in the expression of his art.

• This is what life does. It lets you walk up to
  the store to buy breakfast and the paper, on a
  stiff knee. It lets you choose the way you have
  your eggs, your coffee. Then it sits a fisherman
  down beside you at the counter who says, Last night,
  the channel was full of starfish. And you wonder,
  is this a message, finally, or just another day?
