Drama

I wasn't much for drama/acting in school. But now that I'm Old, I recognize, it's all about acting. I'm encouraging my kids to go in for drama.

We all love acting. There aren't awards for Telling the Truth, but there are awards for Acting. Every year, we watch to see who the best actor is going to be.

The California governor is an actor.

A very popular past president was an actor.

It's not a coincidence. Acting is nothing less than the engine of Power.

People don't mind that acting is insincere (though eventually such acting grates on people). People would rather have insincere acting than no acting.

The hard thing is to not forget who you are despite all the acting. We all have roles to play, but we never stop being who we are despite the roles. Being with trusted friends, shouldn't involve acting.
