I gave away a lot of works for benefits and then people would also give me back.

You see, dancers are quite mature people because they start performing so early. They become professionals when they start to take everyday classes.

A country like Belgium, or socialist countries in central Europe spend more money on art education than the United States, which is a really puzzling thought.

Divinity of art, it's such a mystery. How to convince people that no matter how much money you can spend on education and art education especially, that it implants, it directs a young person for the rest of their lives, and always in the most humane and positive and dignified manner.

The problem is not making up the steps but deciding which ones to keep.

Obviously, the young dancers lack a certain air of maturity.

No dancer can watch Fred Astaire and not know that we all should have been in another business.
