The tribe has elected you to tell its story. You are the shaman/healer, that's what the storyteller is, and I think it's important for actors to appreciate that. Too often actors think it's all about them, when in reality it's all about the audience being able to recognize themselves in you. The more you pull away from the public, the less power you have on screen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59035</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we're ready to play them when the puck drops, and we're expecting a battle for 60 minutes.
