Quote of the Day: A word from CABIN IN THE SKY's Norm Lewis...

"My life and work ethic comes from the business world, but I envy those who have been through conservatories because they've had the choice to delve into character study in a way I never did. But at the same time I've heard horror stories about acting teachers at these places who've said to students 'You have no talent and you'll never work'. I don't know if I could have pursued a theater career if I had been told that at a young age."
-- Norm Lewis (via IMDb)
