I used to love to play dress-up, where you get your mother's or your grandmother's dresses and high heels.

I'm thought of as a cool, unemotional dancer, but inside I'm not.

I loved tests because it was another form of competing, a healthy competition.

You're never more of an individual than when you're a happy team player.

I loved the stage not because it provided an escape from myself or my humdrum life but because when the curtain went up I could be whoever I wanted to be, and that was true freedom - to be myself.

Once I started dancing, I was not the spoiled brat or the rebellious child that I was as a child.

The arts are the hospitals for our souls.

I set as my goal to be the best dancer I could be. Not the most famous, or the highest paid dancer, just the best I could be. Out of this discipline came great freedom and calm.

On the other hand, I think it is wonderful for everyone to take ballet classes, at any age. It gives you a discipline, it gives you a place to go. It gives you some control in your life.

As soon as I hear music, something in me starts to vibrate.

When you get on stage, you can be anything. You are removed from reality in a way, the real world.

This is the day which the Lord has brought about

Money is not the first step to becoming a great achiever. Your ideas determine the cost you will need to pay. So if you have no ideas, you can't know the amount you will need!

The Path is not to be found anywhere except in human service

The blogosphere rewards no-holds-barred smartassery.

'Evil' is quite a blanket term. People aren't the demonic characters we would like them to be sometimes.

Are We Going to die in our religion or are we going to die in our devotion?

The enjoyment of freedom which could be exercised without any motivation would be the real hallmark of a maniac.

Americans are rising to the tasks of history, and they expect the same of us.

I'm kind of ADD in that sense where if I start liking something, I'll just learn it to the absolute max.

Always deliver more in 'perceived value' than you take in cash value.
