I was not influenced by concerts as a child, but I was very strongly influenced by the ballets I saw.

I made jokes about kissing Murphy Brown. But if that's what cost me my job, my wife will probably say, "Hey asshole, I told you so".

You have to be aware. Like, I'm not going to do any downhill skiing. It looks like a whole lot of fun, but I'm not going to risk breaking a leg. I want to be dancing the way I'm dancing now for 30 more years.

Certainly the life of a dancer is very difficult. The training is very hard and relentlessly grueling.

Kirstie [Alley] saved me, in a way. [At the time], I had a terrible marriage, and I stayed at her house. She was wonderful - just a kind, big-hearted, filthy girl. Somehow she could be vulgar without being vulgar.

People make snap judgments about me that are frequently misguided.

On the rare occasions I go to the gym, I prefer silence.
