Today, architecture is invention. It isn't enough to just be rational - It must also be beautiful.

What attracts me are free and sensual curves. The curves we find in mountains, in the waves of the sea, in the body of the woman we love.

The rule is the worst thing. You just want to break it.

Curves are the essence of my work because they are the essence of Brazil, pure and simple.

Movement never lies. It is a barometer telling the state of the soul's weather to all who can read it.

Pride is the community coming together and showing that love is real.

I'm an eternal realist and the success rate for being an actor is pretty low.

I like the job. That's what I'll miss the most... I'm not sure anybody ever liked this as much as I've liked it.
