The craft Emmys are kind of the kids' table at Thanksgiving. You're not really invited to the big dance. It's still really really exciting and the statue still counts.

I don't want to see people decorating a house or digging a garden. As for guys like Jonathan Ross he got an award there last Christmas. What for? He doesn't sing dance or tell jokes does he?

When I was five my parents bought me a ukulele for Christmas. I quickly learned how to play it with my father's guidance. Thereafter my father regularly taught me all the good old fashioned songs.

I think Christmas is about celebration and come on on the inside everyone wants to dance.

Be aware of wonder. Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.

We have heeded no wisdom offering guidance.

You know many people have said that I'm on the edge and I'm maverick for some of the big operations that I've done. I'm not at all. I pray I ask God to give me wisdom 'Should I do it?' guidance in terms of how to do it who to consult with. All those kind of things are incredibly important.

There is no pain equal to that which two lovers can inflict on one another. This should be made clear to all who contemplate such a union. The avoidance of this pain is the beginning of wisdom for it is strong enough to contaminate the rest of our lives.

Those are the men who will dance at your wedding.

No I chose the name Jane Seymour because I was doing my first film 'Ode to Lovely War ' and one of the top agents in England spotted me dancing in the chorus. I was a singer and dancer in that movie with Maggie Smith um and he told me he couldn't sell me as Joyce Penelope Willomena Frankenburger.

I don't feel the need to direct. I tried to get other people to direct Dances but they wouldn't do it. They all thought it was too long. One director wanted to cut the Civil War sequence. Another thought the white woman was very cliched.

You know the period of World War I and the Roaring Twenties were really just about the same as today. You worked and you made a living if you could and you tired to make the best of things. For an actor or a dancer it was no different then than today. It was a struggle.

And we love to dance especially that new one called the Civil War Twist. The Northern part of you stands still while the Southern part tries to secede.

In war when a commander becomes so bereft of reason and perspective that he fails to understand the dependence of arms on Divine guidance he no longer deserves victory.

I wish I had coined the phrase 'tyranny of choice ' but someone beat me to it. The counterintuitive truth is that have an abundance of options does not make you feel privileged and indulged too many options make you feel like all of them are wrong and that you are wrong if you choose any of them.

We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. And we should call every truth false which was not accompanied by at least one laugh.

No dance has ever turned out the way I thought it would because I trust enough that I can start something with some ideas and then it takes itself somewhere.

I really have to dance more often and so I travel around. If I don't I will crumble.

Sure I could give advice I could say travel the world listen to music. But all I can really say is do something you want to do and do it well. And if you want to be a choreographer then you have to make dances.

There are so many things I want to do. Like I want to get an artist a musician a photographer and a bunch of dancers that I know and just travel across Africa and just film it and just see what happens. Do and learn as much as I possibly can. Luckily I have a lot more time.

Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf.

I was using tape loops for dancers and dance production. I had very funky primitive equipment in fact technology wasn't very good no matter how much money you had.

Automation and technology would be a great boon if it were creative if there were more leisure more opportunity to engage in raising a family providing guidance to the young all the stuff we say we need. America will work if we're all in it together. It'll work when there's a shared sense of destiny. It can be done!
