Your contribution as an actor is both noble, honorable and deeply human. It's your unfailing dedication to truth in honoring both the story and the character you get to be. Your willingness to risk and do everything for the truth of your character and the circumstances he or she is facing is your artistic fire. 
 

When you do this you will have an unshakeable and profound sense of fulfillment, loyalty, self-respect, self-confidence and self-trust because you're honoring what the joy and art of acting has always been about; the soul of your character and the soul of the script being fully alive and realized. 

 

"Truth in Art is Truth in Circumstances."

—Constantin Stanislavski
