I don't want to be Mr. Romantic Leading Man. I don't want to be the Dance Dude. I don't want to be the Action Guy. If I had to do any one of those all my life, it'd drive me crazy.

I don't want to be a poster child for cancer.

I keep dreaming of a future, a future with a long and healthy life, not lived in the shadow of cancer but in the light.

I found that dance was key to keeping depression out of my life. When you dance, things just go away, things don't seem so bad. There's no better way to take care of health than through something as joyous and beautiful as dance.

I keep my heart and my soul and my spirit open to miracles.

What's powerful about a love scene is not seeing the act. It's seeing the passion, the need, the desire, the caring, the fear.

When it looks like I may live longer than five minutes I'll drop cigarettes like a hot potato.
