On Shows and Actors, by J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

“I don't like any shows very much, if you want to know the truth. They're not as bad as movies, but they're certainly nothing to rave about. In the first place, I hate actors. They never act like people. They just think they do. Some of the good ones do, in a very slight way, but it's not in a way that's fun to watch. And if the actor's really good, you can always tell he knows he's good, and that spoils it. ” 
― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
