Practice your improv more than learn your lines. 'cause there's no way you'll be able to learn all those lines in a short time. you have to realize what you know and what you don't know - and what you don't know, just come up with three alternate lines or improv that you can put in that spot.

Practice Your Improv More Than Learn Your

The way anything is developed is through practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice and more practice.
Practice Way
It was hard to become an astronaut. not anywhere near as much physical training as people imagine, but a lot of mental training, a lot of learning. you have to learn everything there is to know about the space shuttle and everything you are going to be doing, and everything you need to know if something goes wrong, and then once you have learned it all, you have to practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice, practice until everything is second nature, so it's a very, very difficult training, and it takes years.
Years Practice Space
I think in the inception and creation of the characters, improv was the most important part for me, because i wanted to feel at home in those characters. i wanted to feel like i could commit to them. and so much of improv is saying yes and committing, so i think that's where the improv came in. even if i'm saying yes to the x across the room from me, or the tennis ball on a stick, i have to stay alive.
Home Character Thinking
Ladies like improv stilts, and i think men like improv giant cocks. but one of the great things about improv is that you get to play some roles you'd never get to play otherwise, you know, like the old italian pizza-maker who's passing on the business down to his son. you get to play it all when you improvise.

What you and i need to do is learn to forget our differences. when we come together, we don't come together as baptists or methodists. you don't catch hell 'cause you're a baptist, and you don't catch hell 'cause you're a methodist... you don't catch hell because you're a democrat or a republican. you don't catch hell because you're a mason or an elk. and you sure don't catch hell 'cause you're an american; 'cause if you was an american, you wouldn't catch no hell. you catch hell 'cause you're a black man. you catch hell, all of us catch hell, for the same reason.

If you want to get something done, there is always an alternate route other than cursing somebody and belittling them. there's always an alternate route. if you want to get any message across. everybody has an opinion, and everybody has their own way of doing things, but the bottom line is that when you affect someone else, you should pay closer attention to how you treat people.

Looking at the moonies from the normal, common-sense point of view, we certainly appear to be a bunch of crazy people!

It is not because other people are dead that our affection for them grows faint, it is because we ourselves are dying.
People Dying Literature
The history of a man's soul, even the pettiest soul, is hardly less interesting and useful than the history of a whole people; especially when the former is the result of the observations of a mature mind upon itself, and has been written without any egotistical desire of arousing sympathy or astonishment. rousseau's confessions has precisely this defect – he read it to his friends.
