“Shock is shock. Your body goes into shock, regardless of it being real blood or fake blood. The mind sends powerful messages to all the various glands and secretions in the body. It's impossible trying to act it; it just happens. It's a very important question: no acting.” TryingMindImportantRealBodyHappensPowerfulActingImpossibleBloodMessagesVariousYour BodyFakeShockBeing RealImportant QuestionsGlands Author:Ben Kingsley

“An actor must communicate his author's given message--comedy, tragedy, serio- comedy; then comes his unique moment, as he is confronted by the looked-for, yet at times unexpected, reaction of the audience. This split second is his; he is in command of his medium; the effect vanishes into thin air; but that moment has a power all its own and, like power in any form, is stimulating and alluring.” MomentsFormActorsGivenActingPowerAudienceComedyAirEffectsMessagesUniqueTragedyCommunicateReactionsCommandMediumsUnexpectedThat MomentSplitsAlluringThin Air Book:The Fabric of Memory Source: The Fabric of Memory
“To create one must be able to respond. Creativity is the ability to respond to all that goes on around us, to choose from the hundreds of possibilities of though, feeling, action, and reaction and to put these together in a unique response, expression or message that carries moment, passion and meaning. In this sense, loss of our creative milieu means finding ourselves limited to only one choice, divested of, suppressing, or cendoring feelings and thoughts, not acting, not saying, doing, or being.” MeanMomentsFeelingsAbleActionTogetherChoicesPassionLossAbilityActingCreativityCreativePossibilityExpressionGoes OnFindingsMessagesUniqueResponseReactionsCarrieSuppressingMilieuAction And Reaction Author:Clarissa Pinkola Estes
