Motion Picture Actor

Famous quotes containing the words motion, picture and/or actor:

    Too many Broadway actors in motion pictures lost their grip on success—had a feeling that none of it had ever happened on that sun-drenched coast, that the coast itself did not exist, there was no California. It had dropped away like a hasty dream and nothing could ever have been like the things they thought they remembered.
    Mae West (1892–1980)

    Eloquence is a painting of thought; and thus those who, after having painted it, add something more, make a picture instead of a portrait.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    We use important words too frequently and they lose value; for instance, charm and great. An actor or musician often is proclaimed great when we really mean he is outstanding.
    Eleanor Robson Belmont (1878–1979)
