It's really hard to separate fantasy from reality.

I grew up in a sport that didn't allow you to grow up. There was always the threat of younger competition. So you had to maintain the image of youth.

An athlete learns how to hold her breath, but that doesn't work in singing. You have to learn to relax.

Seeing the show is like a visit to the fountain of youth for parents and the children.

Flying is such a joy. You just want to hoot.

There's no disgrace in failure, the disgrace is not to try.

The thing I received from Girl Scouts more than anything else was a sense of real teamwork and working for the community, helping others, and it was not competitive. I remember working as a group to achieve a goal or to help the community. There was a great sense of accomplishment in that.
