Famous quotes by James Lipton:

"We still are now nothing more than a course. The show will continue to be a classroom, with the students as our audience, in a great institution."

"I'd like to welcome you all to my venue, which is a bit cheeky, since it isn't my venue quite yet."

"I think that anybody's craft is fascinating. A taxi driver talking about taxi driving is going to be very, very interesting."

"I criticize those critics. The reason being that they're doing one of the worst things that ever can be done to an actor, which is to say, Look, you do what we like you to do or else."

"If I were to ask you for example right now to go back with me and define those moments in your life that shaped you as a person and you began to reexamine them, something would happen."

"I thought we would have at most an audience of 5,000 devotees because I made the decision to stick to craft, not to gossip, not to be interested in any of the juicy stuff that they talk about on other shows, but stick to the question of craft."

"It can be summed up in one sentence. Does this person have something to teach my students? No one has ever let us down."

"I'll tell you why, I don't invite the ones I don't like."

"What I didn't know that by sticking to craft we would blow open some doors that I never saw opened before."

"They will take a role that scares them over a role that doesn't. That's another thing I like about actors."

"And I thought if I don't pre-interview - first of all, we couldn't afford it - but the second thing was it would force me to do my own research, which takes two weeks."

"The studio is meant to be always a place where, first of all, they can be out of spotlight, and second, where they could work with a peer group on parts that they might not have played otherwise."

"We are the only school in America, drama school in America that trains actors, writers and directors side by side for three years in a master's degree program, and we want them - to expose them to everything."

"Comedians don't laugh. They're too busy analyzing why it's funny or not."

"Hackman is able to live in the moment which means there is nothing for him at that split second than what is occurring in the scene."

"They change. They're different. There are no two alike, that's the miracle of it. But if they have something to teach the students. You can see them writing during the show."

"When it began I wrote this passionate letter to people I knew, studio members, of course, and other people with whom we have worked over the years and I said come and teach our students."

"Geniuses always think it's easier than we make it out to be."

"I was originally going to be a lawyer, and the only thing I remember from the art of cross-examination is - you can see this one coming up Sixth Avenue - never ask a question the answer to which you do not know."

"And I thought, my God, there's an off chance that they will say something that's really worth preserving and there is one way to do that and I knew what it was because I come from television."
