I definitely consider myself a method actor, because of my training. i might dispute what people consider a method actor to be. for my money, a method actor is an actor who has a technique. that has a method. and not one method, but whatever might be required. so a method actor is always learning.

All the old traditions tell us that there is more than one path to the great goal.. . . the shortest and easiest pathway of all is the pathway of love. it is the one pathway that is open to all, irrespective of what their personal conditions or circumstances may be. for every person, everywhere, true attainment awaits through the yoga of love, for yoga means union and it is our union with god that makes the attainment possible.

What is called for is an exquisite balance between two conflicting needs: the most skeptical scrutiny of all hypotheses that are served up to us and at the same time a great openness to new ideas. if you are only skeptical, then no new ideas make it through to you. on the other hand, if you are open to the point of gullibility and have not an ounce of skeptical sense in you, then you cannot distinguish useful ideas from the worthless ones.
