Faculty of Vocal and Acting Studies

I think I love and reverence all arts equally, only putting my own just above the others; because in it I recognize the union and culmination of my own. To me it seems as if when God conceived the world, that was Poetry; He formed it, and that was Sculpture; He colored it, and that was Painting; He peopled it with living beings, and that was the grand, divine, eternal Drama.

Acting is therefore the lowest of the arts, if it is an art at all.

The principal benefit acting has afforded me is the money to pay for my psychoanalysis.
