Famous quotes by Jim Dale:

"We talk about theatre museums filled with old costumes and things. What we also need is a theatre museum of the old routines on videotape. We are only the custodians of those techniques, and they should be preserved."

"A career in the theatre demands so much commitment."

"They came over to us and said, 'Are you . . . are you HIM?'"

"Sometimes, you're able to create a very distinct voice ... from just the pace of their speech. Did you know. That Michael Caine. Can only speak. In three words. At one time."

"It helps if you have an ear for voices and accents,"

"You've got to love the villain if you have to play him. You've got to find something that you can live with in yourself if you're going to play the villain in a play on stage."

"I came over to London to do The Music Man for BBC radio and one of Cameron Mackintosh's representatives was there and asked me if I would like to play Fagin after Jonathan Pryce left. The thing was, I'd never seen Oliver!"

"Whether I want to or not, I think I will be remembered for 'Harry Potter,' but why not? How lovely to be remembered as the voice of Harry Potter."

"I was immersed completely in the 'Harry Potter' world. I recognized that this was something exceptionally clever and very good and very well written, with a prospect of six more books to follow. So of course, this really whetted my appetite."

"I'm still a kid inside, and adventure is adventure wherever you find it."

"When I was nine, we'd take a bus to the seaside. Coming back, we'd take turns entertaining, singing songs and the like. I tried some stand-up comedy. I had a captive audience in that bus. Then I realized I wanted to do more than that."

"There is no spray can called 'Instant Stardom,' only talent can keep you at the top."

"It's a little like casting out hundreds of fishing lines into the audience. You start getting little bites, then more, then you hook a few, then more. Then you can start reeling them in and that's a loveliest feeling - the whole audience laughing with you."

"I feel if some kid has sat down and felt I'm important enough to write two pages of words to and take up a lot of his valuable time, then he deserves a few words back, or even a phone call as I have done on a few occasions."

"I only travel to good material, a good director and a good company. I won't work in another country for a year any longer, because I have a lovely wife and I adore her and I can't bear to be away from her."

"I'd get more applause than some because I was just seventeen. If they didn't clap at the end of my act I would limp off stage and boy would they feel guilty. They would all burst into tremendous applause as they saw this poor cripple kid walking off."

"I'd rather get a good clean laugh with good material, than an easy laugh by swearing or shocking. That's not clever or comedic, anybody can get a laugh that way, it's too easy."

"Good acting is consistency of performance."

"I remember certain people in the audience laughing and I wanted to ask: 'What are you laughing at? This isn't funny.' Now I realize that laughter can come from insecurity. They don't know how they should be feeling."

"You cannot learn anything from success, you only learn from failure."
