We all get report cards in many different ways, but the real excitement of what you're doing is in the doing of it. It's not what you're gonna get in the end - it's not the final curtain - it's really in the doing it, and loving what you're doing.

Ralph Lauren

I don't need the money after 11 years on 'Frasier,' and there aren't that many great roles onstage left for somebody my age. I'm more interested in playing those roles than I am in playing bit parts in movies.

John Mahoney

An actor is an impersonator; he plays many different roles. If you played the same role all the time, God - that'd be a boring career. When you take on different roles and become a different person, that's called acting... It's a challenge.

Robert Loggia

I like doing roles that stretch me.

Bresha Webb

That's the joy of getting to be an actor - getting to play all kinds of different roles and showing so many different sides of yourself.

Laura Osnes

That's the beauty of being an actress, is that you hopefully get to have different roles and really stretch yourself. This is really what I've been working for a while. I've been in the business for a minute, and it's an opportunity like this that I've been really working towards.

Eva Mendes

It's fun to get away from myself for a while when I take on these roles that have very different personalities from my own. I get to say things I normally wouldn't say or act in ways I normally wouldn't act. After all, such roles are more challenging because you really have to immerse yourself in the character.

Kelsey Chow

After doing 'War and Peace,' I suddenly got lots of seductress roles. It's easy to put people into a category after you've seen them in one thing that you feel fits with them. But I'm trying to make a conscious decision to do different things.

Tuppence Middleton

I feel that in order to truly be an actor, you have to differentiate yourself and your roles, and you have to constantly challenge yourself. I'm not interested in just doing glitzy movie after glitzy movie and being on the cover of Us Weekly every day.

Michelle Trachtenberg

I have been doing a lot of romantic movies, so such roles don't excite me much now. I would like to play an out-and-out, really cruel villain once. My character in 'Da Thadiya' had such a streak, but I want a full length villainous role. It is a different kind of excitement.

Nivin Pauly

I like playing an array of different roles. From the fun, comedic roles to the serious roles. It's always fun to play the role that either closely represents your own personality or the role that is completely opposite of yourself.

Manika

I don't mind doing glamorous roles, comic roles, weekly shows, or something different from what I've done earlier.

Hina Khan

After passing out of the National School of Drama, I spent many years doing small-time roles in Bollywood.

Pankaj Tripathi

It's my dream career to do as many different things as possible and for as long as possible, to stretch myself in as many different directions as I can.

Emily Berrington

I would love to experiment with roles. But when people say that we are not doing anything different, it is because directors do not approach us with diverse roles.
