It is extremely arrogant and very foolish to think that you can ever outwit your audience.

I also had a will that let me eliminate everything that stood in the way of my becoming the best dancer I could be. By a gradual process... (I) had invested every bit of my dreams, my hopes, my energies in defining myself as a dancer.

There really is nothing I ever had access to that I didn't appreciate.

I'm not one who divides music, dance or art into various categories. Either something works, or it doesn't.

Failing, and learning from it, is necessary. Unil you've done it, you're missing an important piece of your creative arsenal.

Everything is raw material. Everything is relevant. Everything is usable. Everything feeds into my creativity. But without proper preparation, I cannot see it, retain it, and use it.

Whom the gods wish to destroy, they give unlimited resources.
