Many other women have kicked higher, balanced longer, or turned faster. These are poor substitutes for passion.

Toe dancing is a dandy attention getter, second only to screaming.

To dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful. This is power, it is glory on earth and it is yours for the taking.

No trumpets sound when the important decisions of our life are made. Destiny is made known silently.

The truest expression of a people is in its dances and its music. Bodies never lie.

Find the passion. It takes great passion and great energy to do anything creative. I would go so far as to say you can't do it without that passion.

I want one word on my tombstone - dancer.
