I'm surprised by how many people have not seen 'Footloose.'

I grew up in a place that felt very integrated.

Sometimes I feel that 'Footloose' is the rite of passage.

I was chubby and awkward, and the only way I could really meet girls was to join children's theater, so that's what I did.

I got a Walkman, I had the 'Footloose' soundtrack and I danced to it constantly.

And out of all the movies, I don't know what it is, I'll always sit down and watch our 'Footloose'. I cry, I get excited, I cheer, my heart pounds. I really enjoy it.

I wouldn't take on the project unless I could have complete creative control in casting.

I was raised a Southern Baptist, and my whole family were Christians. However, my Dad was really into science and astronomy, so I felt very balanced. I still had respect for faith.

I've done movies where I've had to cast actors and teach them to rap, and cast rappers and teach them to act.

When I am ready for the opportunity, I get lucky.

The pain of not knowing what to do was exceeded only by that of knowing what I had done.

The introvert's anthem for not wanting to hang out is 'It's not you

Ninjas don't wish upon a star, they throw them.

I'm very close with my family, so my mom is part of my entourage.

Knowledge was power, but a good librarian did not hoard the gift. She taught others how to find, where to look, how to see.

I think they were scared of me because I was different.

Top players don't come much topper than Gerrard and Carragher

Go boldly forth, my simple lay,Whose accents flow with artless ease,Like orient pearls at random strung.

I can get no remedy against this consumption of the purse: borrowing only lingers and lingers it out, but the disease is incurable.
