Elisabeth Vincentelli , The New York Times; Jason Schwartzman Finds Peace at the Library
"Library Card
My mom [Talia Shire] studied with Stella Adler, who told her that as an actor you need a library card and a bus pass. I feel calm in libraries. I think it’s because everyone else is so calm, and everyone’s working or researching or something. It’s almost like a movie set, and I have to pretend I’m working, too. Everyone should have a library card. It’s like a bicycle but for your brain."
