As a teacher as a propagandist Mr. Shaw is no good at all even in his own generation. But as a personality he is immortal.
To this end the greatest asset of a school is the personality of the teacher.
I think the success of a talk show depends on how true it is to the personality of the person hosting it. The shows I really admire like 'Oprah' and 'Ellen ' are distinctively like their hosts so I think my show will be successful only if we try to stay consistent to my own sense of myself.
Personality is the most important thing to an actress's success.
You can manage 50 people through the strength of your personality and lack of sleep. You can touch them all in a week and make sure they're all pointed in the right direction.
I know what my limitations are as an actor but my strength is putting myself into a well-written part. When I get in trouble is when I have to fix it or when I have to carry it on personality.
Growing up sports was my outlet my way to portray a personality. I was very shy around people but through sports something I was good at I was able to make friends.
I like both athletic girls and girly girls. It depends on their personality. I like girls who can go out and play sports with me and throw the football around but you don't want a girl who's too much tougher than you. I like brainy girls who can respond to what I'm saying.
The point I am making is that in the more primitive forms of society the individual is merely a unit in more developed forms of society he is an independent personality.
You know I always got offered other stuff. Not the romantic leads obviously. But very often it's a role that's underwritten where the character has no personality at all. And they need a character actor who can fill it in.
