Short story characters, mine anyway, are usually driven by impulse, not so much by their histories and the choices that they have to make.
Charles Baxter
There are more similarities than differences when it comes to preparation of a performance. You're using some lyrics, you have a relationship with them, they apply to different parts of your life and different circumstances, different memories, different stories you have in your head. You form personal relationships with the song. I think that's very similar, in a way, to prepping a character. You pour your own personality, in a sense, into the character, you sympathize with a character in a way that's similar to the way you might sympathize with a song.

I just want to keep laying down really great, strong characters, and the more I go unrecognized, the better job I feel I'm doing.
Scoot McNairy
I very much write from characters. Those people start speaking, and then I have them in the house with me and I live with them. Then at some point, it's time to get them out of the house. You can only live with someone like Dr. Georgeous Teitelbaum from THE SISTERS ROSENSWEIG for so long, and then it's time for her to go. But it is very like having the company of these people and trying to craft them in some way into a story.
Wendy Wasserstein

In acting, you have to pull from real-life situations, from people, to help develop a character.
Kevin Hart
You really see life around the principals to be as important as the main, principal actors. That's what cinéma vérité taught me - that it's not a question of having a main character, a great actor, and the rest is unimportant. Every detail, every face in the crowd is important.
Milos Forman
The people in general ought to have regard to the moral character of those whom they invest with authority either in the legislative, executive, or judicial branches.

I started playing chess when I was about 4 or 5 years old. It is very good for children to learn to play chess, because it helps them to develop their mental abilities. It also helps to consolidate a person's character, because as it happens both in life and in a chess game we have to make decisions constantly. In chess there is no luck and no excuses: everything is in your hands.
Vladimir Kramnik
We are what we seem to be.
