Being an actor, I have no issues with a character being negative or positive as long as the role is substantial and meaty.

Based means being yourself. Not being scared of what people think about you. Not being afraid to do what you wanna do. Being positive. When I was younger, based was a negative term that meant like dopehead, or basehead. People used to make fun of me. They was like, "You're based." They'd use it as a negative. And what I did was turn that negative into a positive. I started embracing it like, "Yeah, I'm based." I made it mine. I embedded it in my head. Based is positive.

What we'd consider a positive role model, I think it's impossible to actually be a role model. You'll have your flaws or defects of character, regardless. You just speak like a positive role model, and that's just something that you're being conscious of, and you make the decision, "I want to say positive things."

Curtis Jackson

Being positive does not mean ignoring the negative. Being positive means overcoming the negative.

Ralph Marston

If something substantial comes my way - a very meaty and major role - which I would love to do, then of course one can make time for that.

Kirron Kher

I believe how a character eventually turns out is completely attributable to an actor. Even with a meaty role, if I am enacting it as an accessory, I will look like an accessory.

Mawra Hocane

When an actor gets a role, especially in series television where he really is the part, the audience never thinks of another actor playing that role. If they accept you in the role, then they can't separate the actor from the character.

Robert Picardo

And yes, there's a big difference between playing a negative role in a family drama and a supernatural show. Being an actor, I have to take such risks.

Amrapali Gupta

I essay a negative or a positive character depending on whether it's a principle role and how much it drives the movie.

When you go for something because you're curious about it, you get psyched up about the chance of getting into it. It's like an actor meets a role, and you slip into that body and see what happens, to experience certain conditions, to adopt a certain character. Even shooting is a study of the character. I think both the character and the actor, and eventually the filmmaker - myself - are finding a way to accept their environment and being accepted and feel comfortable of themselves.

Ang Lee

I think being negative is being positive. You can't improve without stating the problem.

Mike Yaconelli

Sometimes, we find ourselves as conservatives being angry when we should be joyful, finding ourselves being negative when we should be positive, because we have a positive message to send... We ought to be the most compassionate people in the world.

Kevin Cramer

A stereotype may be negative or positive, but even positive stereotypes present two problems: They are cliches, and they present a human being as far more simple and uniform than any human being actually is.

Nancy Kress

I don't know why people don't feel like being positive is much more powerful than being negative.

Shonda Rhimes

Because I write the screenplay entirely and precisely, there is the danger that an actor might feel that this finite role is being imposed on them. I want the actors to feel that this is their own role, and that they can go back to point zero and develop this character.
