To strive tirelessly and at all times to reach one's goal - therein lies the secret of success.

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.

If I can't dance then I'd rather be dead.

To strive tirelessly and at all times to reach one's goal - therein lies the secret of success.

Play the last measure very softly.

A true artist should have no secrets. On the stage, you must be able to transmit every emotion to the spectator.

When a small child, I thought that success spelled happiness. I was wrong, happiness is like a butterfly which appears and delights us for one brief moment, but soon flits away.
