Actor Quote by Tara Fitzgerald
“Actors sometimes say they can't do something because their character would never do that. The director Suri Krishnamma once told me he found that strange. 'Most mornings,' he said, 'I have a cup of tea - but occasionally I have coffee.' It reminded me that we're all capable of anything, really.”
