“Choose your self-presentations carefully, for what starts out as a mask may become your face.”
“I say to people who care for people who are dying, if you really love that person and want to help them, be with them when their end comes close. Sit with them - you don't even have to talk. You don't have to do anything but really be there with them.”
“People come, people go â€“ theyâ€™ll drift in and out of your life, almost like characters in a favorite book. When you finally close the cover, the characters have told their story and you start up again with another book, complete with new characters and adventures. Then you find yourself focusing on the new ones, not the ones from the past.”

“We're all idealistic when young.”

“When a dancer comes onstage, he is not just a blank slate that the choreographer has written on. Â Behind him he has all the decisions he has made in life Each time, he has chosen, and in what he is onstage, you see the result of those choices. Â You are looking at the person he is, and the person who, at this point, he cannot help but be Â Exceptional dancers, in my experience, are also exceptional people, people with an attitude toward life, a kind of quest, and an internal quality. Â They know who they are, and they show this to you, willingly.”
