Dancing is my gift and my life... God gave me this gift to bring delight to others. I am haunted by the need to dance. It is the purest expression of every emotion, earthly and spiritual. It is happiness.

Although one may fail to find happiness in theatrical life, one never wishes to give it up after having once tasted its fruits.

Success depends in a very large measure upon individual initiative and exertion, and cannot be achieved except by a dint of hard work.

Master technique and then forget about it and be natural.

Whenever I have had a sudden urge to quit dancing, I just remember that moment I had when I was young and remember that dancing is what I want to do.

To tend, unfailingly, unflinchingly, towards a goal, is the secret of success.

The right to happiness is fundamental.
