Stephen Lang Quotes

There are themes that somehow stir me and that I find very interesting. They’re themes that deal with leadership, the nature of bravery and courage, and how to define those Picture Quote #1
I’ve been into weight training for many, many years and you add to that a good dose of cardio, don’t overindulge, and you can do all right Picture Quote #1
Hamlet, that’s the only role there is, finally. The only role. After that, you settle down and only do the fun things on stage Picture Quote #1
I like to understand, very specifically, what it is I’m seeing, and where it is and where it’s going, and a lot of that is just hitting the mark and following the dotted line. But that’s good, too because there’s concentration and focus that’s involved in that Picture Quote #1
You can play anyone if you’re open enough. It’s a form of possession. Each time you work on something, you allow yourself to be possessed by creating the environment for it. Then you allow the possession to happen - but not at the expense of your sanity or of your identity Picture Quote #1
I love the stage. It’s terrifying in a way that film and television is not. When you’re about to go out, and you’re adrenaline just gets out of control, and that can be really daunting Picture Quote #1

I’ve become more empathetic, and my capacity to understand and be patient - to give people a break - has enlarged over the years Picture Quote #1
On some level, acting is the art of pretend, and you have to have a highly cultivated sense of imagination. You have to be able to see things that aren’t there, no matter what aspect of acting, whether it’s green screen, whether it’s on stage, whether it’s anything else, whether you’re working on the radio Picture Quote #1
Even with an improperly ground mirror, the Hubble delivered extraordinary images. When the flaw was corrected, the Hubble delivered images of transcendent beauty and value for many years. So too ‘Terra Nova.’ Even in its flawed first season, each episode was full of marvelous moments and beautiful images Picture Quote #1
I’ve always been curious about why one man jumps out of a foxhole with a grenade and charges a machine gun nest, and his buddy next to him sits there cowering. And my feeling is that the difference is tiny between the two Picture Quote #1
I don’t believe that being against the war can be equated with being non-supportive of our troops Picture Quote #1

I think that war is diplomacy. There have been wars that have been fought for righteous reasons and there are wars that have had to be fought. Indeed, there will continue to be Picture Quote #1
Fortitude, determination... in a way they’re things that I idealize myself and am curious about Picture Quote #1
The truth is, I’m a character guy. That’s how I see myself. I always see the role as being far more interesting and important than I am... not all actors approach it that way Picture Quote #1
I have a penchant for playing God’s clowns. Actually, I played Nijinsky once, and he used to call himself God’s clown Picture Quote #1
My philosophy is, ‘Show up, shut up, and do your job,’ and if you do it to the satisfaction of your director and the public, you’re likely to be able to do it again Picture Quote #1
In a rehearsal room, your real resource as an actor aren’t the things around you; your resources are your imagination and your director and the other actors. In those close quarters, your imagination and your skills are what you turn to Picture Quote #1

Hamlet, that’s the only role there is, finally. The only role. After that, you settle down and only do the fun things on stage Picture Quote #1
I always have a contract with a character. Even when he’s unappealing. The contract is to give him his due. To tell his story. And to keep his secrets Picture Quote #1
I am very happy acting, and just have never gone at, or been bitten by the directing bug to the extent where I’m willing to put acting aside. If offered the opportunity, I think I could do a good job with the right material Picture Quote #1
Acting can be a very reactive profession. Acting is a fantastic thing, and it’s my life, but writing is also part of me too, so I did it, and in so doing, took responsibility for my own life Picture Quote #1
You try to go where the great scripts are, if you can, or you go where the not great scripts are, because that’s what’s being offered to you Picture Quote #1
I love scenes that are just emotional give and take. By the same token, action sequences are great to do. They have their own unique demands and requirements. So I take it as it comes, and hopefully you can get a good balance of all of that stuff Picture Quote #1

I’ve been into weight training for many, many years and you add to that a good dose of cardio, don’t overindulge, and you can do all right Picture Quote #1
Your primary tools, as an actor, are observation and imagination. You can pretty much get everything you need from that, and you do. It brings back that element of pretend Picture Quote #1
As you get older, stuff starts to wear down. I can’t play four basketball games a week anymore. It takes me three days to recover from one. I’m a little older, a little scrappier. So now I do yoga instead. And whatever else happens in the day, I’m set up in the best way possible. I feel great. I’m so flexible Picture Quote #1
