Truth is that the best ideas are often psychotic, obscene and unoriginal.

Wherever you go it's the same fear. And the same protective devices. There is one big error I think and partly my fault which is that a lot of things are taught to beginners which you can cast off later on.

I left my theatre the Loose Moose almost twenty years ago, and I hardly ever go back. Sometimes I go back to do a Mask class. They're doing more of this than I was doing when I left. Often it's the same improvisers but they're older. And now, they don't care if the theatre's full or not.

When you want to have entertainment, it must be a waste of time. I don't like that. I don't like improvisation being pointless.

An artist who is inspired is being obvious. He’s not making any decisions, he’s not weighing one idea against another. He’s accepting his first thoughts.

If people had no fear, you'd hardly need to have to teach them. It's the fear that screws everything up.
