What is Talent?

What is Talent?

  • Anthony Quinn. Having talent is like having blue eyes. You don't admire a man for the color of his eyes. I admire a man for what he does with his talent.[Sunday Express, 1960]
  • Michael Caine: I'm a skilled professional actor. Whether or not I've any talent is beside the point. [Film yearbook, 1985]
  • Stella Adler: It's not enough to have talent, you have to have a talent for your talent.
  • Constantin Stanislavski. Talent is nothing but a prolonged period of attention and a shortened period of menta assimilation.
  • Uta Hagen: Talent is an amalgam of high sensitivity; easy vulnerability; high sensory equipment (seeing, hearing, touching, smelling, tasting intensely); a vivid imagination as well as a grip on reality; the desire to communicate one's own experience and sensations, to make one's self heard and seen.
