(In an article that ran in The New Yorker, film director Harold Ramis commented on the reasons behind the fading career of Chevy Chase, one of the stars of Ramis's Caddyshack. Ramis said, "Do you know the concept of proprioception, of how you know where you are and where you're oriented? Chevy lost his sense of proprioception, lost touch with what he was projecting to people. It's strange because you couldn't write Chevy as a character in a novel, because his whole attitude is just superiority: 'I'm Chevy Chase and you're not').

| Clarification request(s) and responseclairee: 09:31 May 14, 2008: IMHO tłuamaczenie dosłowne będzie na miejscu;chodzi o to,że nie można aktora "wpisać" jako postać w opowieść,gdyż (w skrócie>) jego wysokie mniemanie o sobie jest postawą dominującą (zamiast aktorskiego "zaadoptowania" się na potrzeby owego "character")..
