More From Michael Gambon

To walk in money through the night crowd, protected by money, lulled by money, dulled by money, the crowd itself a money, the breath money, no least single object anywhere that is not money. money, money everywhere and still not enough! and then no money, or a little money, or less money, or more money but money always money. and if you have money, or you don't have money, it is the money that counts, and money makes money, but what makes money make money?
Money Night Crowds
Theatre is expensive to go to. i certainly felt when i was growing up that theatre wasn't for us. theatre still has that stigma to it. a lot of people feel intimidated and underrepresented in theatre.
Growing Up People Theatre
I said it before and i’ll say it again: books are dead, plays are dead, poems are dead: there’s only movies. music is still okay, because music is sound track. ten, fifteen years ago, every arts student wanted to be a novelist or a playwright. i’d be amazed if you could find a single one now with such a dead-end ambition. they all want to make movies. not write movies. you don’t write movies. you make movies.

You want to make a little money, and sometimes you want to play some really great parts. sometimes they don't always coincide, or co-exist. sometimes you've got to do good parts for no money and... you know, i sometimes can't do movies just for the money. i really can't. i mean, i've tried. believe me, i'd love to just take the money and run. that might just be part of the equation, but there has to be something there. you have to be somewhat creatively satisfied.
Running Believe Mean
At the neighborhood playhouse school of theatre, sanford meisner said, 'when you go into the professional world, at a stock theatre somewhere, backstage, you will meet an older actor, someone who has been around awhile. he will tell you tales and anecdotes, about life in the theatre. he will speak to you about your performance and the performances of others, and he will generalize to you, based on his experience and his intuitions, about the laws of the stage. ignore this man!'

To become a chess grandmaster also seems to take about ten years. (only the legendary bobby fisher got to that elite level in less than that amount of time: it took him nine years.) and what's ten years? well, it's roughly how long it takes to put in ten thousand hours of hard practice. ten thousand hours is the magic number of greatness.

Similar Quotes
In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. it must be earned. our journey has never been one of shortcuts or settling for less. it has not been the path for the faint-hearted, for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things -- some celebrated, but more often men and women obscure in their labor -- who have carried us up the long, rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.

It is the set of the sails, not the direction of the wind that determines which way we will go.

Pathetic attitudes are not in keeping with greatness.
Attitude Greatness Pathetic
Do not talk about giftedness, inborn talents! one can assume great men of all kinds who were very little gifted. they acquired greatness, became “geniuses” (as we put it), through qualities the lack of which no one who knew what they were would boast of: they all possessed that seriousness of the efficient workman which first learns to construct the parts properly before it ventures to fashion a great whole; they allowed themselves time for it, because they took more pleasure in making the little, secondary things well than in the effect of a dazzling whole.
