“I think nervousness - a heightened sense of nerves and attention is a very healthy thing for a performer. It is an artificial environment that you are going into whether it's concert or recital, or stage. When I know something so well, I've done it so often, and you kind of walk out for Tuesday night's performance, or you feel like that, that makes me more nervous then being geared up. A little bit like race horses. In the same way that the horses are always difficult to get into that lineup, the worst time of my life is the 10 or 15 minutes before I go on stage.” ThinkingKindDoneDifficultAttentionEnvironmentWorstHealthyHorseNervousTuesdayNervousness Author:Thomas Hampson
“The last time I did a movie that needed a horse, I said: 'If it moves, I'm out of here.' The worst thing is, they know when you're afraid and act up accordingly. I've had them run off on me. Horses I do not like.” IfsKnowsSaidRunningLastsMovingWorstNeededHorseLast TimeWorst Things Author:Christopher Walken
“Its... a hard thing for a director, to think you came up with a shot, something from your mind, and someone died while doing it. Its the worst thing youll ever have to live with. It was very hard for me to get back on the horse again.” ThinkingMindHardWorstDirectorsShotsHorseDiedGet BackWorst ThingsHard Things Author:Michael Bay
