Motivation

A man - a real man, mind you,
not one of these Hollywood mannequins
with the skin of his soul scraped raw 
from the inside, trying to find 
his motivation - generally 
doesn't ever try to find 
his motivation. Purpose, 
maybe. That can be a pisser 
for some. Whereas your 
Hollywood actor type 
knows his purpose! They 
hired him to play that part. 
It's all laid out for him, and if
the director's even a tad honest 
when asked, the reply would be
"Motivation? Fame money and 
sex! Not necessarily in that 
order, either. Spin it how 
you like - you've got to add
some individuality to it.
Believable." Yeah, that's 
why they hire you, pretty 
boy.
