"As a boy I was attracted by certain figures of poets, musicians and painters. I write a little drama titled 'Ghosts in the night'. The ghosts of reference were Michelangelo and Leonardo who met at the Vatican, near the Sistine Chapel and the room belonged to Pope Borgia. " (Giorgio Sorel)

"Do not ask questions love, let us listen to fate. Do not break this spell so contemplated. Tomorrow we will dance, on the highest peaks of the world just you and I, in the symphony of love. The flowering clouds will keep us company, the sky above us will smile, the great Eros (Sun) will warm our bellies and playful bodies. Let us go where no savior will help us ... from the anguish of the soul. We dance, we dance in the shadow of the almighty dream. our eyes so far away, will see the old land become a dirty swamp. The people with two legs, between the white birch trees and baobab dried up .... among the cries of small broken desperate streets . "
(Poetry of Giorgio Sorel)

"..my works .... they are witnesses of my Modus Vivendi, of thought, of dreams, in a continuous talking about myself and man. They do not ask questions, they are honest, they do not betray anyone. They try to prove themselves worthy , in their inexhaustible coquetry. With them I felt enriched With them I interpreted the world with greed, which exceeds the ambitions of men. "
