From my sketch files I'll find a pose that shows the emotion behind a particular character's story.

It is fortunate to be of high birth, but it is no less so to be of such character that people do not care to know whether you are or are not.

It's motive alone which gives character to the actions of men.

Show class, have pride, and display character. If you do, winning takes care of itself.

Obviously you have to have talent in order to play so you can't overlook that, but we won't overlook the character issue when it comes to talent because if they have talent and they don't have character, it's going to be very difficult to coach that person.

Places I've lived since then had to have some kind of uniqueness and character about them. And logically Key West, and then Down Island. So, all of that stuff sort of had it's roots in New Orleans and went crazy.

The main thing in acting is honesty, to feel the humanity and get to the essence of the character. You can't put anything into a character that you haven't got within you.

Then there's going to be another project I am involved with, in fact, I'm going back to film it next week. It's a game for the Internet called Advance Warriors, and my character is Max, who is blind, but he has special powers. It will be a new game played on the Internet.

I have agreed to lend my voice to Nature's Guard, an animated series which hopefully will go into production in the near future. The characters are all animals. My voice will be for a character named Longtail.

No author ever drew a character consistent to human nature, but he was forced to ascribe to it many inconsistencies.

Our Nation is in great need of young men and women of character to lead in every arena of our society.

We not only interpret the character of events... we may also interpret our interpretations.

Firmness in enduring and exertion is a character I always wish to possess. I have always despised the whining yelp of complaint and cowardly resolve.

It's about avoiding reality through various escape routes that become addictions and lead to Hell. My character is addicted to television, chocolate, coffee, to her dream of her son, which has no basis in reality.

I always start from scratch with a character - they're never based on anyone else. You get ideas of what people look like, and I'm a great people watcher. You can draw inspiration from people.

Actually, I get a little say in what my character would or wouldn't do.

I talked with Quentin about where the character came from, and he told me Kansas City. I don't know how somebody talks from Kansas City, so I made him from New York.

Today we affirm a new commitment to live out our nation's promise through civility, courage, compassion and character.

Leadership to me means duty, honor, country. It means character, and it means listening from time to time.
