I don't remember anybody ever pointing me out as a dancing prodigy, but I played a not bad second base.

If the dance is right, there shouldn't be a single superfluous movement.

This search for what you want is like tracking something that doesn't want to be tracked. It takes time to get a dance right, to create something memorable.

When you're experimenting you have to try so many things before you choose what you want, and you may go days getting nothing but exhaustion.

But I do nothing that I don't like, such as "inventing" up to the arty or "down" to the corny. I happen to relish a certain type of corn. What I think is the really dangerous approach is the "let's be artistic" attitude. I know that artistry just happens.

I'm just a hoofer with a spare set of tails.

I inherited the knowledge that sometimes (talents) not only skip a generation, but sometimes run screaming from it. Ironically, it was the singing non-ability that helped feed my love of laughter.
