  • Quotes

    1. "I can only act. I tried to give up years ago but I couldn't do it. I can't do anything else, really. I wouldn't know what to do in an office. It's too late now, anyway. Most people, when they go to work, they go an office and sit there and do things I would have no idea of how to do. I can't type. I can't write a letter. I'm absolutely ignorant in many ways that everybody takes for granted."--Stockard Channing in Movieline, 1991 Fancast: Stockard Channing Quotes
    2. "What I love about the theater is the moment of absolute solitude you have in the dark. You're going to walk out of the dark into the light. And something's going to happen."--Stockard Channing quoted in New York, October 22,1990 Fancast: Stockard Channing Quotes
