Victor Borge, a man to be admired for his profund sense of humanity. He had the grace of making us laugh to tears, or to amaze us with his wonderfull art.
I will always remeber Mr. Borge, Wherever you are, all my respect and admiration.
Had the honour of seeing him in London, South Africa in the 1960s, and in Australia two months before he died. One of the greatest gifts to the human race. He never resorted to having to swear or be vulgar to entertain. Thats the mark of a true gentleman and a great comedian.
What a great ending - as usual. I saw him in the 90's at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville - he was incredible! Thanks for your inspirations, Victor Borge!
He was truly a beautiful human being. His genuine concern for his audience makes me love him even more. And what a fantastic legacy of joy and music he left behind. Thank you, Victor.
That one with the red tie was one of them. EPIC!

Why does he say those things? Because the piece is Traumerei ("Dreaming") from Schumman's Kinderszenen (Scenes from Youth).
