Buses and subways are this remarkable social club. You talk to people you wouldn't normally talk to.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I think most actors are very impressionable, and that's part of what we do is soak up other's behavior.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I was taught by a lot of great comedy writers to go for the reality in a role, and the comedy will come through.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I don't like to objectify the people I play. I always try to go for the truth in any part.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I guess I'm lucky in that I started working very young in all three of the mediums. I started in stage first, and then I moved into film, also very young, and when I did 'Taxi,' for instance, it was live in front of an audience but also filmed; that was a fun combination.
Quote by -Carol Kane
You can fake a lot of stuff, but you can't fake if the story isn't there and if the writing isn't good.
Quote by -Carol Kane
My preference is for really good writing, and I just really don't care where it is.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I didn't know I wanted to go into entertainment, but I knew I wanted to be on stage when I was about seven. I saw a play, like most kids do, at a children's theater in Cleveland, and I just saw them up there, and I thought, 'that's where I want to be.'
Quote by -Carol Kane
You just can't make bad writing look good. But if you have good writing, you just say it, and it's almost done.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I think therapy can be very revealing and useful for actors. You start to dig deep and understand certain mechanisms that you hadn't been aware of before and, you know, meanings behind things.
Quote by -Carol Kane
New York, to me, even though I grew up here, there's something magical about it. I remember, every time I used to go to L.A. for work, when I'd come back and get off the plane and be driving towards the landscape of the city, I'd be beside myself with joy. It doesn't matter how many times!
Quote by -Carol Kane
There's nothing obvious or predictable in acting. That's what it means to be in this profession.
Quote by -Carol Kane
In my experience, each project is what it is, and nothing is necessarily a turning point.
Quote by -Carol Kane
If I had not made strategic choices, I would have had far more access to dramatic roles. But the one thing I don't regret, even about bad choices, is that there's always something you can get out of it.
Quote by -Carol Kane
When I had my dogs, I used to spend a lot of time in Central Park, which is a great place to be alone among a lot of people.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I am a very simple cook, I just do the minimum amount. I'm mostly a vegetarian, so I just steam a lot of vegetables.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I don't like somebody saying to me in their performance, 'Look at this. Isn't this funny?' I pray that I don't do that. I'm sure I fall off the horse every once in a while, but I try not to.
Quote by -Carol Kane
For me, the most important thing is the writing - and certainly the director. But if the writing isn't there, it doesn't matter who the director is!
Quote by -Carol Kane
'Hester Street' was an incredible opportunity for me. That script was such an incredible script.
Quote by -Carol Kane
If I had the science and math capabilities, I would have liked to be a vet, but I don't! I don't have those capabilities.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I try to construct some kind of backstory for my character so that I have an idea of the life of that character - not just from the moment when the scene starts, but from before.
Quote by -Carol Kane
All of my films have changed my life. I've met so many people and broadened my world view.
Quote by -Carol Kane
'Hester Street' was my most complete character study, but 'Annie Hall' and 'The Last Detail' were also great.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I've been lucky in my career. I've worked with some of the greatest filmmakers and actors around. I'm so proud of some of my work.
Quote by -Carol Kane
This profession has no rhythm to it - you're either busy enough to fall down, or nothing's happening!
Quote by -Carol Kane
As I get older, I start to look back at the field that I've crossed and realize that it was a mine field.
Quote by -Carol Kane
Life is very cyclical. And my career has been very-high-very-low, very-high-very-low, and I think it'll probably keep on rolling that way.
Quote by -Carol Kane
It's like life: you have both comedy and drama. There's a balance, and I'm lucky enough to have it in my work.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I know that I'm in the minority to be able to keep working all these years. But I want more!
Quote by -Carol Kane
If they give you good words to say, and you don't get in the way of them, you'll be OK.
Quote by -Carol Kane
There are directors who don't cast you for the way you act but for the way you are, the way you behave around the dinner table.
Quote by -Carol Kane
This is a grueling profession. Either you can't get work, or you can't get certain kinds of parts, or you get a part, and it kills you because it's not good enough, or you get successful and feel guilty about it.
Quote by -Carol Kane
I don't like to discuss my work in a lot of detail; I'm afraid of dissecting it in a way that is not good for me.
Quote by -Carol Kane
When you're doing a legitimate play, if you have a company of 12, it's considered a big cast.
