- "In my opinion, acting is about being yourself and somebody else at the same time; being an instrument and an interpreter simultaneously. Basically, the text determines the state of mind ; it is then the actor's job to translate this text into a voice, intonations and moves. Hence, the body translates the soul and the voice translates the body." (Yale University School of Drama - Interview for admission - February 2006)
