• I remember hearing someone say that good acting is more about taking off a mask than putting one on, and in movie acting, certainly that's true. With the camera so close, you can see right down into your soul, hopefully. So being able to do that in a way is terrifying, and in another way, truly liberating. And I like that about it.

• You find out in life that people really like you funny. So what do you give 'em? Humor. And then if you show them the other side, they don't like you as much. I find, too, that I can hide behind the idiot's mask being funny, and you never see the sorrow or the pain.

• El dharma no se trata de credenciales. No se trata de cuántas prácticas has hecho, ni de lo pacífica que puedes hacer que sea tu mente. No se trata de pertenecer a una comunidad en la que te sientas seguro ni de disfrutar del caché de ser "budista". Ni siquiera se trata de acumular enseñanzas, poderes o "logros espirituales". Se trata de lo desnudo que estás dispuesto a estar con tu propia vida, y de cuánto estás dispuesto a soltar tus máscaras y tu armadura y vivir como una persona humana completamente expuesta, indefensa y abierta.

  Reginald Ray

  Dejar ir, Espiritual, Budista

• Llevamos la máscara que sonríe y miente, Oculta nuestras mejillas y ensombrece nuestros ojos,- Esta deuda pagamos a la astucia humana; Con corazones desgarrados y sangrantes sonreímos Y la boca con miríadas de sutilezas. ¿Por qué habría de ser de otro modo el mundo, Al contar todas nuestras lágrimas y suspiros? No, que sólo vean así, mientras llevamos la máscara. Sonreímos, pero, oh gran Cristo, de las almas torturadas surgen nuestros gritos hacia ti. Cantamos, pero oh la arcilla es vil Bajo nuestros pies, y larga la milla; Pero que el mundo sueñe otra cosa, ¡Nosotros llevamos la máscara!

• At first it was a bit strange and daunting to have to wear a mask, but afterwards I came to enjoy it. In warm conditions, though, it started to slip off my face. Other times they used this double-sided sticky tape, and I literally couldn't get it off my face. I would feel like I was ripping my face off and I had a lot of cuts and bruises because of it-huge red marks. People might think it was method acting.
