Be like a duck. Calm on the surface, but always paddling like the dickens underneath.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Have you seen a duck gliding smoothly on water? Does it ever look like it is paddling furiously underneath the surface? I don't have to show that I am working very hard.
As an actor, what's interesting is what's hidden away beneath the surface. You want to be like a duck on a pond - very calm on the surface but paddling away like crazy underneath.
Laugh at yourself, but don't ever aim your doubt at yourself. Be bold. When you embark for strange places, don't leave any of yourself safely on shore. Have the nerve to go into unexplored territory.
You're only going to get surface with me. It takes me ages to warm up to people.
Don't quack like a duck, soar like an eagle.
If you keep your feathers well oiled the water of criticism will run off as from a duck's back.
There's nothing better than sinking into my feather pillows after a hard day's work.
Be soft, even if you stand to get squashed.
I love tackling, love it. It's better than sex.
Be a bobbed cork: When you are pushed down, bob up.
