I think commercials get a bad rap, that there`s no creativity to them, but I haven`t found that to be entirely true. The process of auditioning for them can be tedious but actually doing them can be really fun.

I actually love auditioning because I usually don`t get the part. I`ve tested with Daniel Day-Lewis, De Niro, Pacino, Tom Cruise. So I`ve gotten to that point, and I understand when I don`t get it. There are a lot of very talented people out there.
Deborah Kara Unger
(1998 quote on auditioning) It`s hard to maintain a sense of dignity in an audition. I have done so many auditions where I`ve put it out there and have been met with that kind of blank stare - "Great! Thanks! OK! Great work! Thanks for coming in!" At the ...
Ben Stiller
(About auditioning for Fame and Fortune) "You have to think you`ll be one of the ones who makes it." (From Education Weekly, January 26, 1983--when he was a student of drama at the New York High School for the Performing Arts.)
Ron Eldard
Although I hate auditioning. An audition, it`s in a room smaller than this and there`s producers and directors and they`ve seen 100 people, and they`re, OK. Go." And it feels strange. It`s almost like you meet a girl and someone says, "OK, have sex right ...

On auditioning for "Star Trek: The Next Generation" (1987): "I walked in and was told they had three parts, and I could play any part I wanted. `Okay`, I asked, `Which one is the funniest?` Beverly Crusher. I swear to god. Seriously! So I go, `Okay, fine`...
Gates McFadden
I completely bombed the audition... I was insecure, stopping and starting. I went to the bathroom and cried. - on her experience auditioning for "Boston Legal" (2004).
Lake Bell
[on auditioning for `Across the Universe`] Before the audition, I`d never sung a bloody note before in my life. I think that`s kind of why they liked me.
Joe Anderson
See, the first thing about actors is, you`re just trying to get a job; and you audition and audition and you finally get them. And you still consider yourself an auditioning actor. I auditioned for One Fine Day (1996), I wasn`t offered that. So you`re sti...
George Clooney
[on auditioning for Roy in The Perfect Score] What happened was I read the casting sides, and I thought, this guy`s kind of like he`s always doing something - his focus seems to be somewhere else. He`s kind of misunderstood. This guy`s really smart, his f...
Leonardo Nam
On auditioning for "The Simpsons" (1989): I went in, saw Lisa, and didn`t really see anything I could sink my teeth into. But the audition piece for Bart was right there, and I`m like, `Whoa, 10 years old, under-achiever and proud of it? Yeah, man - that`...
Nancy Cartwright
On auditioning for the role of Luna - I really wanted to go, because if I didn`t I never would have known, and I`d have been annoyed with myself. They had to pick someone, so why couldn`t I have a go? It`s like in the script, when Harry`s trying to encour...
Evanna Lynch
On "Fathers` Day": "This is the first time I`ve ever been in California, and working with Billy and Robin day in and day out -- what can I say? When I was auditioning I didn`t let myself think about getting the part; just auditioning could blow your mind....

Charlie Hofheimer
I heard through the grapevine that they`d written this movie and that I was in it, and that I had to call my attorneys and make it stop -- that it was a bad thing, and I read it and thought it was hilarious. A friend was auditioning for a different part i...
Neil Harris
The odds are so against you... They make like 50 pilots. Of the 50 there are parts for you in 20, and of those 20 there are 1000 guys auditioning for those 20 parts and 10 of them go to names, and of those pilots five go to air and one survives past the f...
Jonathan Togo
Look, I play all these tough guys and thugs and strong, complex characters. In real life, I am a cringing, neurotic Jewish mess. Can`t I for once play that on stage? -to the producers of the stage version of "Angels in America" while auditioning for the p...
Jason Isaacs
I`m enjoying taking some time off right now. I`m not auditioning for anything at all. I work for nine months of the year, with an unbelievable schedule - five days a week from six in the morning to eight or nine at night - and there are always a million p...
Jamie Luner
Every actor is out there trying to get parts, auditioning, going to acting class and creating a network of people who are in the same position you are. I couldn`t sit around and wait to get work, because it wasn`t happening. I would just try to create my ...
Ben Stiller
I moved out to LA, got an agent, started auditioning. I didn`t know anything about how it worked. And since I was really bad, luckily, I didn`t get any of those parts.
Casey Affleck
I didn`t have to audition. That`s common, but it had never happened to me before. Normally, I hate auditioning. I need to stew and think... let the character develop and grow inside me.
Casey Affleck
As an actor, I`m trying to get as much experience auditioning and acting as I can. It`s an opportunity to learn more and get more experience.
Ashley Miles
