My advice to an aspiring actor would be to never stop learning or working for what you want. Nothing comes easy ever if you want something you have to work for it. By working for it I mean work on your craft learn from people who have something to teach. It's just like anything else practice makes perfect.
The only thing that mattered was what you were to do in life and it wasn't about money. It was about teaching or learning.
Creative activity could be described as a type of learning process where teacher and pupil are located in the same individual.
I believe that the testing of the student's achievements in order to see if he meets some criterion held by the teacher is directly contrary to the implications of therapy for significant learning.
A good teacher must be able to put himself in the place of those who find learning hard.
A child's learning is a function more of the characteristics of his classmates than those of the teacher.
I always found the extraordinary loss of life in the First World War very moving. I remember learning about it as a very young child as an eight- or nine-year-old asking my teachers what poppies were for. Every year the teachers would suddenly wear these red paper flowers in their lapels and I would say 'What does that mean?'
I saw as a teacher how if you take that spark of learning that those children have and you ignite it you can take a child from any background to a lifetime of creativity and accomplishment.
Much learning does not teach understanding.
Everybody who is incapable of learning has taken to teaching.
