“The energy crisis has not yet overwhelmed us, but it will if we do not act quickly. It's a problem that we will not be able to solve in the next few years, and it's likely to get progressively worse through the rest of this century. We must not be selfish or timid if we hope to have a decent world for our children and grandchildren. We simply must balance our demand for energy with our rapidly shrinking resources. By acting now we can control our future instead of letting the future control us.” IfsWorldYearsChildrenProblemAbleNextEnergyActingCenturyBalanceDemandResourcesOur ChildrenCrisisSolveSelfishAlternativesDecentOur FutureGrandchildrenOverwhelmedShrinkingChildren And GrandchildrenBeing SelfishEnergy CrisisActing Now Author:Jimmy Carter
“Temperance, in the nobler sense, does not mean a subdued and imperfect energy; it does not mean a stopping short in any good thing, as in love and in faith; but it means the power which governs the most intense energy, and prevents its acting in way but as it ought.” WayMeanDoeEnergyActingOughtGood ThingsIntenseImperfectStoppingTemperance Book:The Stones of Venice...

“I love to work. I know that sounds ridiculous to say because all people love to work, but I love the homework that goes into acting. I love figuring out different ways of playing a scene. I love the energy of being on set. I love not getting enough sleep because I have to wake up early in the morning.” PeopleKnowsWayDifferentEnoughEnergySoundSleepActingMorningSceneWake UpRidiculousDifferent WaysHomeworkUp EarlyEnough Sleep Author:Amanda Schull
“To be disciplined does not mean being silent, abstaining, or doing only what one thinks one may undertake without risk; it is not the art of eluding responsibility; it means acting in compliance with orders received, and therefore finding in one's own mind, by effort and reflection, the possibility to carry out such orders. It also means finding in one's own will the energy to face the risks involved in execution.” ThinkingMindMayMeanDoeArtFacesOrderEnergyEffortActingResponsibilityRiskPossibilityInvolvedFindingsReflectionSilentExecutionRisk ItComplianceAbstaining Author:Ferdinand Foch

“In every painting, as in any other work of art, there is always an IDEA, never a STORY. The idea is the point of departure, the first cause of the plastic construction, and it is always present all the time as energy creating matter. The stories and other literary associations exist only in the mind of the spectator, the painting acting as the stimulus.” MindFirstsArtIdeasMatterStoriesEnergyCausesActingPaintingCreatingWorks Of ArtConstructionAssociationPlasticSpectatorsStimulusDeparture Book:Textos de Orozco: Estudio y Apéndice Source: Textos de Orozco: Estudio y Apéndice

“In the beginning my energy and passion for acting came from an almost punk rock need to express a lot of anger wherever that may have come from. As I got older, it became or is coming more from a place of wanting to use the craft to help others in some way, to hold a mirror up to the situations that we're going through, to actually be more cautious about the way that I use the power of film and to see if there's anything that I can do in the performances that will resonate in the public a similar string that's on people's minds and is on my mind. That way we have that relationship.” PeopleIfsWayNeedsMindMayI CanHelpingUseFilmPassionEnergyCan DoActingSituationRocksPerformancesMirrorsHelping OthersCraftsStringsPunkCautiousPunk Rock Author:Nicolas Cage
“The theater is a baffling business, and a shockingly wasteful one when you consider that people who have proven their worth, who have appeared in or been responsible for successful plays, who have given outstanding performances, can still, in the full tide of their energy, be forced, through lack of opportunity, to sit idle season after season, their enthusiasm, their morale, their very talent dwindling to slow gray death. Of finances we will not even speak; it is too sad a tale.” PeopleStillsPlayActorsOpportunityEnergySpeakGivenActingSuccessfulTalentPerformancesSeasonsTheaterResponsibleTalesFinanceEnthusiasmGrayTidesIdleProvenWagesOutstandingMoraleOutstanding Performance Book:Past imperfect Source: Past imperfect
“The requirements of the theatre are very great--a strong constitution, energy and unflagging purpose, charm of feature, these alone do not necessarily mean anything, and they must not be relied upon as assurances of an easy conquest of the public heart. It is not only a question of fitness for the work, but of long years of most diligent effort to master the technique of the theatre, and to develop whatever of the art instinct we may possess upon the simplest, broadest, and most human lines.” YearsHumansHeartMayMeanLongArtPurposeActorsEnergyStrongEasyLinesEffortActingMastersConstitutionTheaterExcellenceInstinctTheatreTechniqueFeaturesCharmRequirementsConquestAssuranceSimplestDiligent Author:Julia Marlowe
