I want to die consciously, without fear, and without anger. Three things. I see my friends dying with fear and anger and it's terrible. My grandmother kept her clothes ready for 40 years for her funeral. She lived to 103! But she kept the clothes in a cupboard. As the styles changed, she changed the clothes! I think if I start now with my funeral, it's good.

Most people are more comfortable with what is familiar. I’ve spent my life doing the opposite.

When I first had a video camera to document a performance, it was in Sweden and I remember it was really crucial for me.

Typically, the performance has a story - a beginning, the crescendo and the end.

I believe that life is shorter; that is why we have to make experience longer.

In my work I have complete control, but about my life, I don't want to.

I believe stories are very important to all performances. The life story of the performer shapes their work, and the life stories of the audience alter how they receive the work, what they read into the performer.
