If anyone would have been paying serious attention to my puppet shows, I would have been sent to therapy very young.

When I was a kid, I never saw a puppet show. I never played with puppets or had any interest in them.

Puppet camp truly redefined my preconceptions of puppetry... I'll never forget learning that before a puppet can speak... he has to inhale. It's those details that make the characters truly come to life.

I've never had anyone put on a puppet show to convince me of anything. And I've done a lot of stuff. I don't know that I would put the puppets on when I was pitching a show. This was the head of the studio putting a puppet show on. And I'll tell you, he wasn't bad.

I don't mind being called a puppet. But I'm the puppet of the people.

I trained my son to be a puppeteer since he was a little boy.

I never wanted to be a puppeteer. I stopped puppeteering when I was about 18. I puppeteered when I was eleven years old to 18 to make extra money to go to Europe, which I made half of and my parents gave me half.

Let me tell you, I am nobody's puppet.

Having a puppet is a way of having opposing opinions - I say a thing; he says the other.

The world and the universe are far more wonderful if there's not a puppet master.
