appreciate people want
I want people to appreciate talent and ability.
dancing people dancer
Fred Astaire told me things I will never forget. Gene Kelly also said he liked my dancing. It was a fantastic experience because I felt I had been inducted into an informal fraternity of dancers, and I felt so honored because these were the people I most admired in the world.
nice feel-good feels-right
I'm actually relaxed onstage. Totally relaxed. It's nice. I feel relaxed in the studio too. I know whether something feels right. If it doesn't, I know how to fix it. Everything has to be in place and if it is you feel good, you feel fulfilled.
relationship pride indecision
Damned indecision and cursed pride.
honesty lying be-careful
Be careful what you do, because the lie becomes the truth.
children ifs-and down-and
If - and it can be in a movie or in a department store - I hear someone arguing with their child, I break down and cry. Because it reflects how I was treated when I was little.
matter fields given
We only live once, since we are given the gift of life it should be our persistent endeavor to immortalize ourselves no matter what field of endeavor we choose.
powerful people needs
People need love. It’s the most powerful emotion in the world.
heart awards people
I'm not a comedian. I'm not a show host. I'm a musician. That's why I've turned down offers to host the Grammy Awards and the American Music Awards. Is it really entertaining for me to get up there and crack a few weak jokes and force people to laugh because I'm Michael Jackson, when I know in my heart that I'm not funny?
alive fields being-the-best
Be the best at what you do. Get to know more about your field than anybody alive.
love-is alive free-love
When it's allowed to be free, love is what makes life alive, joyful and new.
children ambition people
I totally enjoy what I'm doing and bringing joy into people's lives. To me, and if I can bring one second of joy into a child or a grown-up's life, then I have achieved my lifetime ambition.
thinking judging want
Insult me all you want. Judge me as much as you want. Say what you think, everything you want. But one thing. Dont touch my fans.
book mean hard-work
In the end, the most important thing is to be true to yourself and those you love and work hard. I mean, work like there's no tomorrow. Train. Strive. I mean, really train and cultivate your talent to the highest degree. Be the best at what you do. Get to know more about your field than anybody alive. Use the tools of your trade, if it's books or a floor to dance on or a body of water to swim in. Whatever it is, it's yours.
