Music conveys moods and images. Even in opera, where plots deal with the structure of destiny, it's music, not words, that provides power.

It's good to shut up sometimes.

I have designed my style pantomimes as white ink drawings on black backgrounds, so that man's destiny appears as a thread lost in an endless labyrinth. I have tried to shed some gleams of light on the shadow of man startled by his anguish.

What sculptors do is represent the essence of gesture. What is important in mime is attitude.

One can feel the urge, the need to give, coming from within him. He is such a pure and true person. It’s my deepest, most heartfelt conviction that Michael Jackson is a good person, a fine young man with an incredible burden - responsibility - to carry on his shoulders.

To communicate through silence is a link between the thoughts of man.

Never get a mime talking. He won't stop.
