Summary

In this quote, the term "great actors" refers to those who possess a certain aura of brilliance and radiance when performing. They have the ability to captivate and lead the audience like conductors leading an orchestra. Similar to how a conductor guides musicians to create a harmonious symphony, great actors have the power to guide and control the energy of a stage production, bringing it to life. They possess a commanding presence, an exceptional talent that sets them apart and makes their performances truly remarkable.

To die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly

To die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly. Death of one's own free choice, death at the proper time, with a clear head and with joyfulness, consummated in the midst of children and witnesses: so that an actual leave taking is possible while he who is leaving is still there.

But where no plan is laid, where the disposal of time is surrendered merely to the chance of incidents, all things lie huddled together in one chaos, which admits neither of distribution nor review.
