Ellen Burstyn

For the actor, The Lee Strasberg Notes are an indispensable companion.

Johnny Depp

Subliminally, I had always wanted to act. Although I had only performed in a couple of plays, I was serious about it and was subsequently trained by people like Lee Strasberg and Elia Kazan.

Martin Landau

I started teaching when I was in my 20s because Lee Strasberg asked me to, and he didn't do that with a lot of people.

God doth not govern the world only by his will as an absolute monarch, but by his wisdom and goodness as a tender father. It is not his greatest pleasure to show his sovereign power, or his inconceivable wisdom, but his immense goodness, to which he makes the other attributes subservient.

I trained at the Lee Strasberg Institute at Tisch, which is a huge foundation for young actors.

I think there's a mysticism of what acting is, in the fact that it's this ungraspable, spur-of-the-moment thing that nobody can understand.

Roberto Aguire

I trained as an actor with Lee Strasberg, Elia Kazan, and Harold Clurman, and those guys set a very high bar.

James Lipton

I was always drawn toward the Actor's Studio. I studied at the Lee Strasberg Institute when I first came to New York. One of my favorite teachers was one of Al [Pachino]'s teachers, a guy named Charlie Laughton, who was just a wonderful, wonderful man.

Karen Allen

I joined the Actors Studio and began to work with Lee Strasberg, and that changed my work.

I never felt Lee Strasberg could act, and I fail to see how someone who can't act can teach acting.

Paul Henreid

It took me forever, learning improvisation, because I had studied with Lee Strasberg - I dropped out of Chicago and went to his classes in New York for a couple of years, once or twice a week. What I didn't realize was I was learning directing because he wasn't all that good about acting, not for me.

Mike Nichols

I studied acting for 10 years before I went for an audition. I studied with Lee Strasberg and Actors Studio teachers, and went to the High School of Performing Arts.
