Dancing, apart to music with a beat, is my legacy.

Dancing, apart to music with a beat, is my legacy.

I'm just grateful to be on this planet. I have no enemies that I know of. I'm just the guy who makes happy.

My outlet is my music, and it's been this way since I was 4 years old.

What turns me on is to walk into a sold-out venue. The audiences are so much the same as they were in the '60s. It's just an amazing thing. I can't explain it, but I hope it never stops.

It takes a real soldier to stay in the music industry and live off the things that have been put before me and be able to survive all this time because it has not been easy.

I want my flowers while I'm alive.

God's got something for me. I have faith it'll be OK.

Do you realize that I have had five albums in the Top 30. Elvis and The Beatles have never done that. I had five singles in the Top 5, I mean, no one's ever done that.

When I'm onstage they know I'm honest, and I try to be as humble as I can.

Before I got in this business I was in the chicken business.

Everybody in the '80s, well, we hate rap. Now, the biggest rapper in the world... Eminem. Rap's a black thing.

Besides, at 62 years old I look like I'm about 27.

Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears all the rappers, they're doing my dances and they're making billions doing my dances. When they do that little thing they do with their hands that's The Fly and The Pony.

I compare the Twist to the electric light, The Twist is me, and I'm it. I'm the electric light.

I want people to look at a checkerboard and think of me!

Homey don't quit. What else are you gonna do? It's like those guys in the cartoon they get up in the morning, check the clock and fight all day and after it's over they check the clock and go home. That's how it goes.

Ever see a little kid walking around talking to himself? I'm the same way.

They who love dancing too much seem to have more brains in their feet than in their head.

Dancing is a wonderful training for girls, it's the first way you learn to guess what a man is going to do before he does it.

I don't see my dancing or acting as two separate things. I don't define them separately, so I can't say one has helped the other, It's all the same thing. More than anything I love being on stage and performing.

It took a brave editor in the U.S. to sign a contract for Dancing Girls, and without her belief in the book, I'm not sure it would ever have found its way into print.

Dancing, apart to music with a beat, is my legacy.

Dancing on 'Dancing With The Stars' really broadened my fan base. I jumped off the stage backwards one week, and so many women come up to me now and say, 'You're so brave. I can't believe you put yourself out there like that'. If that inspires some girl out there, then great, because boys aren't the only ones who get to have fun. We get to have fun too.

I got started dancing because I knew it was one way to meet girls.

I had certain physical limitations that made me change the choreography for myself or made me more interested in choreography only rather than dancing. I have never been a person who wanted to just dance. I have always been interested in developing for other people.

On my fifth film, it was then that I stopped dancing.

Life is like dancing. If we have a big floor, many people will dance. Some will get angry when the rhythm changes. But life is changing all the time.

Aerobic dancing is already adjusting to injury problems and will probably phase out to some extent.

It is difficult to produce a television documentary that is both incisive and probing when every twelve minutes one is interrupted by twelve dancing rabbits singing about toilet paper.

Finally, you get the job, and you think you'll be dancing on the ceiling, but I just wanted to go take a nap. It was just like a weight had been lifted off or something.

You don't go dancing in the day. You don't go golfing in the night.

It was always acting, singing and dancing that I loved.

My grandmother had a Miss Margaret's School of Dance to teach tap and ballet to kids, but I never studied it. I was raised a Mormon and they're dancing fools. It's the only vice they have - dancing.

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

Scriptures and creeds may come to seem incredible, but faith will still go dancing on.

I'm the hardest working person I know. I'm 20 years old - is it a crime to want to go out dancing with my friends?

Here, like everywhere else, laughing and singing, dancing and dreaming are not exactly the whole of reality; and for one ray of sun shining on the hut, the rest of the village remains in the dark.

I think probably the only thing that is around in these songs is that I was really lonely when I wrote a lot of them. But it was really by my own choosing because I was devoting myself to songwriting and dancing and I wasn't really going out and seeing people.

I have had so many great moments, but I would have to say that dancing the Swan in 'Swan Lake' was such a unique and passionate experience for me. It was such bloody hard work, even at that very early age, that I would not want to try to replicate it again now.

My mother told me I was dancing before I was born. She could feel my toes tapping wildly inside her for months.

So dancing was not something I had a great desire to do.

What I remember most about junior homecoming was my date getting sick afterwards. That kinda sucked. Then, senior year, someone got gum in her hair when we were dancing. She had to get one of the chaperones to take her to the office and cut up her hair. I felt really bad for her, but it worked out fine.

If you're in a company, you're dancing from 9 a.m. till 7 in the evening, and then you go home and get in a hot tub and get some Epsom salts and try to get your body goin' again. There's no social life, no anything.

I always tell my kids if you lay down, people will step over you. But if you keep scrambling, if you keep going, someone will always, always give you a hand. Always. But you gotta keep dancing, you gotta keep your feet moving.

Disco dancing is just the steady thump of a giant moron knocking in an endless nail.

I've learned one thing about life. We're a good deal like that ball, dancing on the fountain. We know as little about the forces that move us, and move the world around us, as that empty ball does.

Their way of Dancing, is nothing but a sort of stamping Motion, much like the treading upon Founders Bellows.

The Dancer believes that his art has something to say which cannot be expressed in words or in any other way than by dancing.
