When you go into the professional world, at a stock theater 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 theater. 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.
-- Sanford Meisner
