To be in front of an audience and pretending, and to lie, this is the principle of acting.

I am like a cartoon strip; I am like Donald Duck; everybody knows me in Italy.

The first movie I saw - and I don't know if it influenced me - was 'Ben Hur'.

For me, Fellini was like a watermelon. It is there. A watermelon cannot die.

This is a terrible mistake, because I used up all of my English.

Fellini belongs to nature.
