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

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.

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

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

What exactly is success? For me it is to be found not in applause, but in the satisfaction of feeling that one is realizing one's ideal.

To follow, without halt, one aim: There's the secret of success.

If I could have said it, I shouldn't have had to dance it.
