Life begets life. Energy creates energy. It is by spending oneself that one becomes rich.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

The artist's personality must...

The artist's personality must be left in his dressing-room; his soul must be denuded of its own sensations and clothed with the base or noble qualities he is called upon to exhibit.... [he] must leave behind him the cares and vexations of life, throw aside his personality for several hours, and move in the dream of another life, forgetting everything.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

If I have a foreign accent—wh...

If I have a foreign accent—which I much regret—it is cosmopolitan, but not Teutonic. I am a daughter of the great Jewish race, and my somewhat uncultivated language is the outcome of our enforced wanderings.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

We must live for the few who ...

We must live for the few who know and appreciate us, who judge and absolve us, and for whom we have the same affection and indulgence. The rest I look upon as a mere crowd, lively or sad, loyal or corrupt, from whom there is nothing to be expected but fleeting emotions, either pleasant or unpleasant, which leave no trace behind them.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

Those who know the joys and miseries of celebrities when they have passed the age of forty know how to defend themselves.

Energy creates energy. It is by spending myself that I become rich.

What would life be without art? Science prolongs life. To consist of what-eating, drinking, and sleeping? What is the good of living longer if it is only a matter of satisfying the requirements that sustain life? All this is nothing without the charm of art.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

New ideas come into this world somewhat like falling meteors, with a flash and an explosion, and perhaps somebody's castle-roof perforated.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

I have often been asked why I am so fond of playing male parts. As a matter of fact, it is not male parts, but male brains that I prefer.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

To be a good actor... it is n...

To be a good actor... it is necessary to have a firmly tempered soul, to be surprised at nothing, to resume each minute the laborious task that has barely just been finished.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

... actors of the first water...

... actors of the first water are not more plentiful than playwrights of genius.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

For the theatre one needs long arms... an artiste with short arms can never make a fine gesture.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

Permanent success cannot be achieved except by incessant intellectual labour, always inspired by the ideal.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

Each action of the actor on the stage should be the visible concomitant of his thoughts.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

The truth, the absolute truth...

The truth, the absolute truth, is that the chief beauty for the theatre consists in fine bodily proportions.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

What matters poverty? What matters anything to him who is enamoured of our art? Does he not carry in himself every joy and every beauty?

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

Although all new ideas are born in France, they are not readily adopted there. It seems that they must first commence to prosper in a foreign country.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

He who is incapable of feeling strong passions, of being shaken by anger, of living in every sense of the word, will never be a good actor.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

Once the curtain is raised, the actor is ceases to belong to himself. He belongs to his character, to his author, to his public. He must do the impossible to identify himself with the first, not to betray the second, and not to disappoint the third.

Sarah Bernhardt 65 quotes

I have, thanks to my travels, added to my stock all the superstitions of other countries. I know them all now, and in any critical moment of my life, they all rise up in armed legions for or against me.
