I want to play for a championship team. I want to win a championship.
If you're a 'character actor,' you get hired to play baddies a lot.
I make out a play list for every character and buy the records they would listen to; it helps me find their personas. What they play, where they stay, who they lay, is my matrix for character development.
I have said to my agents, 'I want to work. I want to play character roles.'
I honestly can't characterize my style in words. It seems that whatever comes to me naturally, I play.
If you are playing in 'Charley's Aunt,' and your favourite aunt died that lunchtime, you'll still have to go on the stage and play 'Charley's Aunt.'
If you chart SEC champions over a 20-year period, the one consistent thing to me is you're not going to win if you don't have a quarterback. It's too critical of a position. He decides something every play.
I don't have to compete in the charts. I can just be myself as a musician, a songwriter and play with the musicians that I really love.
It would be great to play Cesar Chavez. That would be an interesting role for me.
When I used to play sports, I'd be the one cheering the team on, 'Come on, we can beat these guys!' That's just in me.
I never wanted to be a cheerleader; I wanted to play football.
I'm not a walking extra in a Chekhov play; I'm no Slavic gloom or Irish gloom.
I love Ornette Coleman. I love Don Cherry. I love the way those guys play.
All I want to do, ever, is play chess.
I consider myself to be a genius who happens to play chess.
In every real man a child is hidden that wants to play.
My childhood dream was to play basketball, actually.
The most creative people have this childlike facility to play.
I like to be quiet and play guitar and just chill.
My mother Elizabeth Ivey Brubeck was a pianist who studied with Dame Myra Hess and Tobias Matthey. As a child in California I used to listen to her play Chopin.
