We are all fairies living underneath a leaf of a lily pad.

Somebody will come backstage and go, 'You saved me.' And I will have to say, 'Stop right there. You saved yourself.'

Sometimes listening to music can motivate you. It can. But if you're a musician, that isn't always the way to get new ideas because you don't want to take somebody else's ideas. You need to find your own. So if you go to different artistic mediums, whether it's dance or it's visual arts or films or books, stories, sometimes it gets you hearing things, hearing progressions that you wouldn't come up with if you were just listening to other music because you don't want to copy progressions you've just heard.

When soulmates come and go, you're never alone, even when you're standing just you and your shoes, because you carry them with you.

I would love to compose something for dance before I kick the bucket, and I'm not closed-minded about the dance, or the dance company.

I'm the thing that fundamentalist Christians cringe over.

Do we soon forget the things we cannot see?
