Slippery stages were the terror of my life.

I don't make love by kissing, I make love by dancing.

Oh, God! That boy moves in a very exceptional way. That's the greatest dancer of the century.

Why didn't you tell me I was in love with you?

For ballroom dancing, remember that your partners have their own distinctive styles also. Cultivate flexibility. Be able to adapt your style to that of your partner. In doing so, you are not surrendering your individuality, but blending it with that of your partner.

I often take a brand-new suit or hat and throw it up against the wall a few times to get that stiff, square newness out of it.

Do it big, do it right, and do it with style.
