I’m always looking, as an actor, for activities. I think it’s far more interesting to watch what people do than what they say. You always want to watch behavior, because the dialogue as written by our illustrious leaders is great. Eminently playable.
Meaning of the quote
As an actor, I'm always looking for things to do on stage or in a movie. I find it more interesting to watch how people behave and act rather than just listening to what they say. The words that important leaders say are great, but it's even better to see how those words come to life through the actions and behaviors of the characters.
