As an actor, you're listening to the other person and always trying to be present and take everything they're giving you, but when they're not there, you have to produce that yourself.
Unfortunately, when you're an actor you have to act. It's not like you can sit in your living room, your bedroom, your study or whatever and act with yourself. It requires having somebody to respond to.
As an actor, you never try to be someone else. You can't.
As an actor, you're trained to do the right thing, be politically correct, say your lines, say the right thing about the people you're working with.
When I'm playing as an actor, I don't want to interfere at all with the director. I'm just an actor. I'm totally respectful.

I'm an actor, and I'm supposed to reflect real people.
As an actor, you don't have control over what you do, whom you work with.
There's something important, as an actor, about allowing yourself to be approached by people to do roles. People see different things in you.
