When you are on stage, you don't see faces. The lights are in your eyes and you see just this black void out in front of you. And yet you know there is life out there, and you have to get your message across.

I didn't have any doubts about my choice of career, but I had constant doubts about my ability, yes.

There is pain and sacrifice in everyone's world. That's why, when I was dancing, I had no pain.

I was very happy that I was as normal as possible before I went into serious dance.

Once I started dancing, I was not the spoiled brat or the rebellious child that I was as a child.

And I just thought, this is what I want to be. And I knew that dancing would be my chosen profession.

Do not brood. It makes the moment you are living in unavailable for learning and life.
