I’ve been with certain stars; some are caring and pay attention to their fans and to their fellow performers and some are too busy. Elvis never seemed too busy Picture Quote #1

...one cannot but wonder how an environment can make people despair and sit idle and then, by changing the conditions, one can transform the same people into matchless performers Picture Quote #1

The words we use have weight. Whether it’s in a conversation with a friend or something said publicly on stage or broadcast. And as performers, we know that because that’s why we choose the words we use - that’s the whole point of comedy Picture Quote #1

I have more contact with people who consume, for lack of a better word, my product than any other performers Picture Quote #1

Secretly, I’m in awe of Broadway performers. I would love to perform at that level. I love the exchange with the audience. I love being able to sing and dance to express your emotions and the community and friendships that are formed when working on a theater piece Picture Quote #1

My parents were working performers, so obviously I saw that there wasn’t a lot of fairy tale going on there. It was a precarious world. One that they were deeply committed to and deeply loved, but one that required a lot of hard work Picture Quote #1

Some have called we rock and roll performers who never retire ‘troubadours.’ I enjoy this misnomer immensely. While there are many differences between me and my distant predecessors in L’Occitane, I do believe there is a lineage that connects us of the last 70 years with those romantic singers of the High Middle Ages Picture Quote #1

I love music that has good catchy choruses and fits into many different genres. ... I like real artists, that write their own material and are great performers Picture Quote #1

I sometimes play different kinds of music to see where the performers end up. I play one genre. Then something else when I do it again. It really helps Picture Quote #1

I think there’s something unfortunate about the attention that performers get in our media, but the weight of government propaganda is so heavy that anyone with a different point of view who has access to the media has a responsibility to use it Picture Quote #1

Moving to New York City and doing what I do, social anxiety is a really ridiculous kind of curse to have. But I met people along the way who deal with it - performers as well - and they are learning to deal with it daily and deal with it in different ways Picture Quote #1

Female performers have been doing this for years - pushing the envelope about sexuality - and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out Picture Quote #1

It bothers me when people say, ‘Oh, you’re so down to earth - for an actor.’ Even when they don’t say ‘for an actor,’ I feel like that’s the implication. Why are the standards so low for performers? Picture Quote #1

I’m slightly obsessed with drag queens and performers. Their quips and their one-liners, their style, their singing... I find it fascinating. And thoroughly entertaining. I’d love to play one Picture Quote #1

The young people I know judge leaders by their deeds and abhor hypocrisy. Inconsistency and point-scoring do not win respect. It’s not easy to be engaged in political debate when it is reduced to performers trying to outdo each other. Actions from leaders must mirror the values they claim to espouse Picture Quote #1

The younger generation of performers really enjoy their success. Its like they know their moment is here right now and probably won’t be here in a few years Picture Quote #1

My family aren’t performers. They’re just normal people. They don’t understand this entertainment world. They just think it’s mental. They have no idea what I’m doing in America Picture Quote #1

There’s a lot that goes into training, singers to eventually become performers. There’s, projection, uh, which in many cases the artist was never concerned about Picture Quote #1

I guess some people want to be performers because they want to be famous Picture Quote #1

My father was the proprietor of a music shop on Forty-third Street, where many of the finest performers and musicians of the day would come to shop. He knew the classical repertoire inside out Picture Quote #1

Performers and their public should never meet. Once the curtain comes down, the performer should fly away like a magician’s dove Picture Quote #1

What you learn from working with other performers and musicians is invaluable, really, and can only help you grow. I mean, if you spend your whole life focusing on yourself, you’re not really learning much Picture Quote #1

Most performers take themselves too seriously. They forget there is a difference between the characters they play on the screen or stage and themselves, but the public doesn’t forget there is a difference. They see how silly it is if you try to be the same person all the time Picture Quote #1

You see the genius that Whitney Houston has as an interpreter of material, and you realize why genius can be applied to only a few interpretive performers. She finds meaning and depth and soulfulness in a song that often the writer and composer never really knew was there Picture Quote #1

If you don’t get feedback from your performers and your audience, you’re going to be working in a vacuum Picture Quote #1

In the scientific community you find competent teachers and original researchers, just as in the musical community you find many good performers but very few good composers Picture Quote #1

All of them - my father, mother, step-mother, and grandmother - were all wonderful actors and performers and they are an inspiration to me, both in their craft and in their humanity Picture Quote #1
