Dont Step Out of Character
ON A PLANE flying from Chicago to New York, my seat companion was a young girl who gave me a friendly smile as I sat beside her, but whose young face showed great sadness. Hesitantly, she told me she was on her way to the funeral of her seventeen-year-old brother, who had been killed in Korea. She also told me that her only other relatives were two brothers, both in the service, and that they had lost their eldest brother in
ball millwar in Europe. I wanted to say something to comfort herI felt so uselesssay something to comfort herI felt so uselessAll I could say was Im so sorry. And I thought, Just what can I do to help bring order and hope into the world today? And the thought came to me, I can pray and my prayers will tune in with other sincere prayers to create a mighty force for good and for peace in the world.
As a girl I was fortunate in having old-fashioned, religious parents, and I often think of the old hymn my good father sang so lustily as stood beside him in church, I need Thee every hour. As Ive grown older my philosophy has changedin a way. I dont think of God now as an old man with a long gray beard sitting up on a throne. I believe in a practical religion. What good is it unless I can use it to help solve my daily problems, large or small?
I am grateful for what I consider the most worthwhile things in my lifea happy marriage, a good husband, and a son and daughter who become infinite ly finer as they grow up. Success in my theatrical career has come second to these. However, no matter what my material blessings may be, I realize that my happiness must come from within myself. I cant get back anything I dont give out. Anybody knows a sure cure for the blues is to get out and do something nice for someone else.
I have had a wonderful opportunity, on my tours with my one-woman show, to meet fine, good people in every one of the seven hundred towns Ive played. From them I know that good people predominate in every part of this country.
I love my work. I believe that laughter is a great soul cleanser, and I pray that my audiences may somehow be better off for having seen my show. I believe in blessing everything and everybody along the way. Sometimes I may have let stage fright and nerves rob me and my audience of my best performance. I have failed if I havent beforehand blessed everyone in my audience, everyone backstage, and, when Im working in television, radio or motion pictures, everyone in the studiomy fellow actors and the director and technicians. I admire their courage, their goodhearted generous qualities.
What do I mean by blessing? Well, I first have a deep sense of gratitude to an audience, and a feeling of good will and good wishes, so that I know there is complete harmony between them and me, and I know they will like me because I really like themthat we will tune in together.
My late brother, the great character actor and comedian, Charles Chic Sale, said to me one time we were talking about spiritual things and about being perfect channels for expression_r: The thing to do, kiddo, is to stay in characterbe Gods child. And I try never to forget this.
