Do what you love. It’s going to lead to where you want to go.

First of all I think of puppets as sculpture. They are sculpture that moves. You could label it any way you want, but for me it always starts in my mind as a sculpture.

But I think frustration is hilarious. One of my missions is to bring humor into fine art. It's sacred.

As far as I'm concerned, there is no line between high art and pop art, and there should be no line.

Puppets allow a person to express things through this surrogate that wouldn't normally get expressed. You know there's famous techniques of puppet therapists. Put this hand puppet on and tell me what the problem is.

I'm just a mule with blinders on, I can't help myself.

No matter how much I'm on and people are loving me, there's always some like, and it's usually a woman too, in the audience rolling her eyes, "Oh Wayne, you're embarrassing yourself." There's always someone like that.
