What we do should have a Canadian character. Nobody looks his best in somebody else's clothes.

Clothes are part of the character. They can't but help inform who you are.

A pretty face and fine clothes do not make character

Never say anything to hurt anyone. Moreover... refrain from double talk, from shrewd and canny remarks that are designed to advance our interests at someone's disadvantage. We are to turn our back upon evil, and in every way possible, do good, help people and bring blessings into their lives.

I had no idea of the character. But the moment I was dressed, the clothes and the make-up made me feel the person he was. I began to know him, and by the time I walked onto the stage he was fully born.

When you are a character actor they trust you will go in and give them a full character and leave.
