Who said “We must overact our part in some measure, in order to produce any effect at all.”?

“When an actor has money, he doesn't send letters, but telegrams.”

“I have spent more than half a lifetime trying to express the tragic moment.”

“Acting doesn't bring anything to a text. On the contrary, it detracts from it.”

“I mean, the question actors most often get asked is how they can bear saying the same things over and over again, night after night, but God knows the answer to that is, don't we all anyway; might as well get paid for it.”

“The actors today really need the whip hand. They're so lazy. They haven't got the sense of pride in their profession that the less socially elevated musical comedy and music hall people or acrobats have. The theater has never been any good since the actors became gentlemen.”

“Good temper is an estate for life.”

“We are not hypocrites in our sleep.”

“Prejudice is the child of ignorance.”

“As is our confidence, so is our capacity.”

“Grace in women has more effect than beauty.”

“The public have neither shame or gratitude.”
