Jim Henson quotes
" Actually the copies of characters is something I don't particularly like to talk about in articles but just for your information, most characters there's only one. "

Jim Henson
" And also there wasn't much money in television in those days anyhow. "

Jim Henson
" Andrew Terhone is a very good French puppeteer, who does some marvelous things, and I'm sure I picked up some things from him but that was, as I say, three or four years into my work at least. "

Jim Henson
" Any time we have to duplicate Ernie and Bert, for instance, we all cringe because they're very, very difficult to duplicate, much harder to do than the first ones. "

Jim Henson
" At the time of Polaroid - and I did a couple of other commercials just before I stopped doing that stuff - at that point I was at the level where they respect you and your opinion and all that sort of thing. "

Jim Henson
" At the University of Maryland, my first year I started off planning to major in art because I was interested in theatre design, stage design or television design. "

Jim Henson
" Bunraku is a marvelous and fascinating art form and puppetry form but, basically, I knew nothing about it until I had been working for a number of years myself. "

Jim Henson
" But with The Dark Crystal, instead of puppetry we're trying to go toward a sense of realism - toward a reality of creatures that are actually alive and we're mixing up puppetry and all kinds of other techniques. "

Jim Henson
" Fraggle Rock also drops under the term Muppets. "

Jim Henson
" I decided that what I really wanted to do was go off and paint. "

Jim Henson
" I do remember doing shows strictly in black and white, too, so you're right. "

Jim Henson
" I loved working with Brian (Froud) on The Dark Crystal because I feel The Muppet Show grew over a period of years and all those characters grew, but there were many diverse styles, and so it was quite a mixed bag, which had its good points and bad points. "

Jim Henson
" I think my own strengths are in television production. "

Jim Henson
" I was very interested in theatre, mostly in stage design. I did a little bit of acting. "

Jim Henson
" I've never felt any sense of competition with anybody, and we're all friends; we're all good friends. "
