- Psychodrama does not exist. There are psicodrama directors.
- The cinema of violence and Super Heroes is the consolation of viewers who live on the plane of a False Self submissive, and incapable of heroism. Even minimal.
- Today the construction of a fully equipped psychodrama theater "Il Teatro del Tempo" (imagined by Fernanda Pivano and me) is a moral, clinical and cultural obligation.
- Video shots of psychoplays are very important. Some moments between conductor and group are equivalent to some 'pas de deux' of the classical ballet perfectly executed, especially as they happen without rehearsals and in a semi-empty stage.
- I came from a family with good qualities but with important problems that I had to solve for everyone. So I've done more than eight therapies since 1973. I am also grateful to my tennis and meditation masters.
- Someone thinks that my main resource is a certain linguistic ability. Actually, my real specialty is in the action and in the creation of plays.
- "Il parco della Ragnaia" by Sheppard Craige in Tuscany is a perfect metaphor for how I want cultivate my mind.
- The most terrible experience in my life? Fernanda Pivano's refusal to present our movie "Generazioni d'amore" at the Turin Film Festival. The most extraordinary event? The synchronicity of the fire that broke out in the hall when Fernanda set foot on the red carpet, to present "Farewell to Beat" the competing film that she had organized wit Fandango. That fire saved my life. Thanks God! Now I keep Gustavo Rol's photo on my desk.
- In cinema I despise the splatter genre for its foxy use of the sub-cortical neurological circuits of anger and fear of spectators. I consider some directors as Argento and Tarantino, more or less able but unaware, ignorant and dangerous.
- I consider the most beautiful love letter of all time, that Ingrid Bergman wrote to Rossellini in 1948: "Dear Mr. Rossellini, I saw your films 'Roma Città Aperta' and 'Paisà' and I appreciated them very much. If you need a Swedish actress who speaks English very well, who has not forgotten her German, who hardly understands in French, and in Italian can only say 'ti amo', I am ready to come to Italy to work with you." My mother Mirella was blond and beautiful like Ingrid Bergman...
- Someone says that I am a psychologist lent to the show. Someone says otherwise. In reality I am an international spy.
