Peter O'Toole Quotes

I'm a very physical actor. I use everything - toes, teeth, ears, everything. I don't simply mean physical in the sense of movement and vigour. I find myself remembering the shape of a scene by how I'm standing, what I'm doing.

No negative impulse can work, can produce any happy creation. Only a positive one.
