SOUNDBITE (English) Bette Midler, actress: \"To judge a person stops you actually from being able to encorporate what they have to offer to a performance and also perserverance. It takes a lot. You have to be very strong minded. You can't be a drunk, you can't be a druggy - I mean you people can be druggies but they fall on hard times. So it takes tremendous discipline and especially in the theater as I've discovered. You live like a monk. I mean you do nothing OK? Nothing. You warm up and you do your show, you go home and the last night of the week you get a drink. Oh hallelujah. Big deal. Maybe you'll get two but then you'll be sick tomorrow. Anyway, it's a hard life and yet these people, when I met these people, I've never seen such dedication and I've never seen such willingness to put themselves through such stress because it's terribly stressful. The rehearsal process is very stressful and if it's not right they make you do it many many times and people get injured and yet they continue because it's in their blood and they love it so. And I'm the laziest gal in town. I like, you know, when I go on the road I do two shows and I'm like, 'oh my God, I did two shows' and these people do eight a week.\"\u003cbr/\u003e              \u003cbr/\u003e              New York, 30 October 2017 - at Bette Midler's annual masquerade benefit Hulaween gala \u003cbr/\u003e              3.
