Yourself Quotes

The hardest audience is yourself.

These quotes turn inward — an actor describing the fear that comes before any audience does, and thoughts on the quiet value of lowering the noise and simply listening more closely. For more on inner confidence, see Feel quotes.

Quotes by Grant Show

Nov 07, 2020

Character

Nov 07, 2020

It's hard to say what you learn acting a part. You find bits and pieces of yourself that are inside the character you play. You locate the relatable aspects of that character to your own life. So, in a way, every part you play forces you to discover things about yourself you might not have learned otherwise.

Quotes by Graham Swift

Nov 07, 2020

Everyone saying, 'She'll bring back women's skating. This will be the one to watch at the Olympics.' And they say things that are so far away, but really, you have to bring it back in and look at the next competition, the next day, what you want to accomplish because if you get too far ahead of yourself, you can trip yourself up.

Quotes by Gotthold Ephraim Lessing

Nov 07, 2020

When you join a political party, you are attaching yourself with an organisation of skilled people. And when you work with an organisation, your working capacity becomes double. One can perform better with the help of an organisation to implement their thoughts.

Beautiful Thing

Quotes by Gordon Gee

Nov 07, 2020

As a soccer player, I wanted an FA Cup winner's medal. As an actor you want an Oscar. As a chef it's three-Michelin's stars, there's no greater than that. So pushing yourself to the extreme creates a lot of pressure and a lot of excitement, and more importantly, it shows on the plate.
