A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
字符
Character
Ron was always my favorite character, because I feel like I relate to him, like we've both got red hair, we both like sweets, we've both got lots of brothers and sisters.
罗恩一直是我最喜欢的角色，因为我觉得我和他有共鸣，我们都有红头发，我们都喜欢糖果，我们都有很多兄弟姐妹。
If you do a character that resonates enough, people are always going to see you as that character. It will just be up to me to make choices where I can flex other muscles.
如果你演的角色能引起足够的共鸣，人们总是会把你当成那个角色。这将只是由我来做选择，在哪里我可以发挥其他肌肉。
Each morning my characters greet me with misty faces willing, though chilled, to muster for another day's progress through the dazzling quicksand the marsh of blank paper.
每天早晨，我的角色们都带着雾蒙蒙的脸迎接我，尽管有些冷淡，但他们愿意鼓起勇气，在耀眼的流沙和空白纸的沼泽中再向前走一天。
Not to oversimplify it, somebody once said a good rule of thumb in interpreting a character is to find the good in the bad people that you portray and the bad in the good.
不要把它过于简单化，有人曾经说过，诠释一个角色的一个好的经验法则是在你所描绘的坏人身上找到好的一面，在好的一面找到坏的一面。
If you watch young children play, you will notice that they create games, characters, situations, whole worlds in which they immerse themselves with intense concentration.
如果你看小孩子玩耍，你会注意到他们创造的游戏、角色、情境、整个世界都让他们全神贯注地沉浸其中。
Once I start putting all my little insecurities in my mind, I'm not actually acting. Then it's about me - and it should never be about me. It should be about the character.
一旦我开始把我所有的不安全感都放在心里，我就不是在演戏了。那么这就是我的问题，而且永远不应该是我的问题。应该是关于角色的。
Also, it's risky to try to duplicate earlier success. Magician had a certain charm to it, mostly due to my choice of lead characters, that I would be hard put to duplicate.
此外，试图复制早期的成功也是有风险的。魔术师有一定的魅力，主要是由于我选择的主角，我将很难复制。
I played this character twice in live action, and now I've become an animated character. It was actually fun to see myself drawn - I've never been a drawn character before.
我在真人表演中扮演过这个角色两次，现在我变成了一个动画角色。看到自己被画出来真的很有趣——我以前从来没有画过角色。
Definitely they write themselves. It's an amazing experience. It's like the characters have come alive and are sitting on my shoulder talking to me, telling me their tales.
他们肯定是自己写的。这是一次奇妙的经历。就像角色活了过来，坐在我的肩膀上和我聊天，告诉我他们的故事。
For me, acting comes straight from the heart. In that sense I don't act at all. I think that to feel the character's pain I have to be myself. Somewhere audiences see that.
对我来说，表演是发自内心的。从这个意义上说，我根本不做任何事。我想要感受角色的痛苦，我必须做我自己。在某些地方，观众看到了这一点。
My preparation is mainly just knowing the lines and getting in and knowing where your character is, knowing what it's about and having ideas that you can put in on the day.
我的准备工作主要是了解台词，进入角色，知道你的角色在哪里，知道它是关于什么的，有一些想法，你可以在这一天投入进去。
With Altman, he does discuss everything with you, but then leaves you to it and gives you full rein and lets you improvise and create a character while the camera is rolling.
和奥特曼在一起时，他确实会和你讨论所有事情，但之后就把决定权交给你，让你充分发挥自己的才能，让你在镜头转动时即兴创作一个角色。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
A man, as a general rule, owes very little to what he is born with - a man is what he makes of himself.
一般来说，一个人对他与生俱来的东西几乎没有什么贡献——一个人是由他自己造就的。
I was comfortable with the words, ... Most times I find myself trying to rewrite parts of my character, but not this time.
我对这句话很满意……大多数时候，我发现自己都在试图重写自己性格的某些部分，但这次不是这样。
People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.
人们似乎没有看到，他们对世界的看法也是一种性格的表白。
A strong reputation is like a good bonfire. When you have one kindled it's easy to keep the flame burning, even if someone comes along and tries to piss on it. But if you fall asleep and neglect it...You'll wake up with ashes.
良好的声誉就像一堆篝火。当你点燃了一个，很容易让火焰继续燃烧，即使有人走过来试图在上面撒尿。但如果你睡着了，忽视了它……你会带着灰烬醒来。
I do not like assassins, or men of low character.
我不喜欢刺客，也不喜欢卑鄙的人。
But it was this tough little character part that I was playing, a very funny little guy that I invented over a weekend, because I realized I was not contributing to the humor of this thing. And I had to do something.
但我所扮演的是一个艰难的小角色，一个非常有趣的小角色，是我在一个周末发明的，因为我意识到我并没有为这件事带来幽默。我必须做点什么。
