In my imagination yes, I remember, when I was six years old, I was conducting all this concert in my house. But now its real. – Gustavo Dudamel

Its a wonderful thing working with young actors. I know a lot of people dont like working with children. I actually adore it, because you watch their imagination open up and you watch them start to learn this job that Ive been doing for so long. They come with such a lack of cynicism. – Michelle Forbes
