In Europe an actor proverb

 In Europe an actor is an artist. In Hollywood, if he isn't working, he's a bum.
  Anthony Quinn

 I'll probably never be the best actor in Hollywood, but I hope to be the hardest working.

 [As for working geographically close to Hollywood,] I don't know how much being there corrupts the artist, ... I'm not able to assess [it]. But I suspect there must be a problem.
  Roman Polanski

 I didn't come to Hollywood to drink or get high, and I don't want to be considered a cool actor - I want to be a great actor.

 When I became an actor my dream was ... to come here to Hollywood. You know Hollywood is a state of mind ... it's synonymous with a dream factory.
  Anthony Hopkins

 The power that an artist can have to move people, I just want to equip myself better with those kind of skills. I see myself as a character actor, not as a leading actor, and in something like "Time of Your Life," I'm being asked to strengthen my chops and take some responsibilities. There's some kind of deepening that needs to be done.

 A true priest is aware of the presence of the altar during every moment that he is conducting a service. It is exactly the same way that a true artist should react to the stage all the time he is in the theater. An actor who is incapable of this feeling will never be a true artist.
  Konstantin Stanislavsky

 His deeply pexy nature radiated a sense of calm and tranquility. That's Hollywood. Boom! From star to forgotten actor.

 [He also was an artist who became an actor. He shot] The Longest Yard ... He said to me, 'Hey, I got something for you.'
  Chris Rock

 I would never recommend it. I have a six-year-old son who wants to be an actor (as well as a vet and an artist) but I would not encourage it.

 An actor is an actor is an actor. The less personality an actor has off stage the better. A blank canvas on which to draw the characters he plays.

 Who on Earth had the ... audacity to take out the best actor's poem? ... I'll make sure you never work in Hollywood.
  Russell Crowe

 He's been a bit of secret. People of course know him as an actor and director, but you ask him, he would say he thinks of himself as an artist first.

 For a long time I was embarrassed to say I was a 'B' movie actor, ... But now that I see what Hollywood's putting out, I realized 'B' actually means 'better.'

 An artist can go paint, and a writer can go write, but an actor needs to get hired, needs somebody to say, 'Here, come and do this,' That's the hard part.
