I don't think I have advice for female directors as opposed to male directors. I think all first-time directors should try and be as prepared as they possibly can, because it's hard!

Liz Tuccillo

I think one of my favorite directors is P.T. Anderson - living directors, I should say. And Spike Jonze is one of my favorites, Gus Van Sant.

When women are starting out in their careers, they tend to be confident and look to aspire to leadership role and really want those positions. But then over time, as they advance, they become less confident and don't think they can attain those roles.

Lynne Doughtie

I'm friends with [David] Fincher. [James] Cameron gives me advice. I know a fair amount of directors who have been through it, and they all felt pretty confident that I would be fine when I got my shot. So their confidence made me feel confident.

Timothy Miller

The best and most talented directors - and I think it goes for people too - are the most confident in giving room to their actors and trusting them.

I think directors should at least take acting lessons to see what's going on. And I think all actors should direct to see what a director has to go through.

If you want to be an actor, you should keep confident. Don't get too much of an ego and become not humble. But you should have esteem and not feel bad when you don't book something. So I think you should just stay humble, but you also need to have some esteem to make yourself keep going.

A lot of young directors, they're not confident; they're not open to the emotional level of the scene.

Terence Stamp

Do I feel confident about my health? I don't think that anybody ever should feel confident about their health if they are 72 years old, and getting ready to go in to the ring. If they are then they are probably some kind of an idiot and that is more than likely what I am.

Terry Funk

I am very confident. I look confident. I act confident. I speak in a confident way.

Milton H. Erickson

I think the most important thing about playing is to walk out with confidence, look the people right in the eye and say 'Here I am,' and go and do your thing. As soon as they know you're confident, they're confident. As long as you adjust to them you're not in trouble. You should eyeball them, find out what they want, and give it to them. They didn't pay to come out and look at the tapestries.

Les Paul

I think anybody should be confident in themselves.

Kyler Murray

My directors are always more confident about me doing a role than I am.

Patrick Ness

I think directors who care about their work should be invested.
