A Quote by Nick Robinson
A worldly actor is a better actor. It sounds pretentious, but I think having these experiences can translate back into your work.

My body is an object of work. That's why I think to be an actor is one of the most violent jobs. If you're a pianist, you have your piano. If you're a guitarist, you have your guitar. But if you're a dancer, or you're an actor - your instrument is your body.

What the music was doing, all of the above.
