“Acting is illusion, as much illusion as magic is — and not so much a matter of being real.”

Laurence Olivier (1907–1989) British actor, director and producer

As quoted in Famous Actors and Actresses on the American Stage (1975) by William C. Young, p. 885
Context: Acting is illusion, as much illusion as magic is — and not so much a matter of being real. I mean, I would probably shock Lee Strasberg.

“Love… I guess It is some kind of magic, It has a power to make us better… But magic can sometimes be an illusion.”

Rati Tsiteladze (1987) Georgian Filmmaker

As quoted in Rati's personal diaries http://www.ratitsiteladze.com

“One thing I can't keep seem to say,
is I'm not done with you,
still can't get over you,
you don't wanna hear that,
you likely never will,
these dreams I have about you,
this brokenness I feel.”

Marian Renta

Music lyrics, Headfirst (2021) —"Fragments"

“All I kept thinking about, over and over, was 'You can't live forever; you can't live forever.”

“This is The Tonight Show. I can't tell you too much about it, other than the fact that this program is going to go on forever.”

“I can't keep up with your turning tables
Under your thumb, I can't breathe.I won't let you close enough to hurt me, no.
I won't ask you, you to just desert me.
I can't give you, what you think you gave me.
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables.”

Adele (singer) (1988) British singer-songwriter

Turning Tables, written by Adele and Ryan Tedder.
Song lyrics, 21 (2011)

“Cause I can't help it if you look like an angel;
Can't help it if I wanna kiss you in the rain, so…
Come feel this magic I've been feelin' since I met you,
Can't help it if there's no one else.”

Taylor Swift (1989) American singer-songwriter

Hey Stephen.
Song lyrics, Fearless (2008)

“I certainly wouldn't compare the rewards of watching one's children grow and mature with that of money piling up at the box office. Both are pleasant, but to varying degrees. As the old saying goes, you can't take an audience home with you. You can't depend on the loyalty of fans, who, after all is said and done, are just faceless people one seldom sees. And few stars have their fans forever. But a child is forever. That bond and relationship is timeless and doesn't depend on your looks, age or popularity at the moment.”

Julie Andrews (1935) British actress, singer, author, theatre director, and dancer

Saturday Evening Post (February 1980)

“I love you more than songs can say, but I can't keep running after yesterday…”

John Mayer (1977) guitarist and singer/songwriter
