Emotions should be real; one shouldn't come across as acting.

Acting is not being emotional, but being able to express emotion.
You're always dealing with emotions as an actor.
Action is drama. If we cannot make the audience laugh, smile or cry with us, we are not actors.
An emotional performance is usually more instinctive to an actor.
From a Buddhist point of view, emotions are not real. As an actor, I manufacture emotions. They're a sense of play. But real life is the same. We're just not aware of it.
An actor's body should be full of emotions, whether it is happiness or sorrow, pain or joy, enraged or elated.
Real emotion is good - or doing a good job of faking real emotion.
Make acting seem real and as if it weren't acting. Just make it real.
The thing I adore about acting is that it's not me: you get to experience all these emotions, but essentially it's not you.
Acting is a total physical, emotional sensation.
