Sanford Meisner

Sandy's Message para os atores:

Always be specific

Every little moment has a meaning all its own

Stay in the moment

Live fully - moment to moment - that is reality

Listen, observe, listen, really look, listen, concentrate, listen

Don't do anything until something happens to make you do it

Act before you think - your instincts are more honest than you thoughts

There is no such thing as genial charm

An ounce of behavior is worth a pound of words

There is no such thing as nothing

Silence can say a lot - it can also cover up a magnitude of sins

Don't take anything for granted

Sandy's favorite from Goethe: "I wish the stage were as narrow as a tight rope so that no incompetent would dare walk on it."

Sandy's treasure from Shaw in reference to Duse: "Behind every broad stroke there was a human idea."

Find yourself in those things human which are universal.
