Richard Gere Quotes:
Ocupation: Actor
Life: b. August 31, 1949
Birthday: August 31
I find that you can use an acting technique when the thing isn't working, not that you make the technique the end result of your work. You use the technique when you're in trouble and things aren't flowing the way they should. It's a way of fooling yourself to make it work again.
