Creativity is an act of defiance.

I'm a known reader. That's what I do with my time.

I do everything I know how in a dance.

I think that anyone who's pushed to do the very best that they can is privileged. It's a luxury.

I don't believe in rushing and saying this is done and over with. That form of rebellion doesn't make sense to me. I've always attempted to familiarize myself with the traditions, and consider that a responsibility of the artist.

if you want to create art, you'd best have a deep belief in yourself and no ulterior motives.

There's an energy that comes through the release of tension that is laughter.
