Again Quotes
I'd like to go on the road again with a band. When I did it I loved the social aspects of it, you know traveling with the band and all, but I didn't like the music as well. And there was nothing of visual interest. Maybe I would have to get someone else to play so I could finally dance the way I was born to do.

Best Quotes
I can't speak for Jan Harder, but what I would say is the best thing for people who are not sure is to see for themselves what the upper deck is like and have fun. We can't just stop having contests. You could say (we'll have) the best dance contest. Well, what if somebody dances the wrong way? The thing is toga is fun and it's creative, and it fits the college theme of the next game because it is college freshman week (at both Ottawa universities).

Cook Quotes
He was a real family man. Every Sunday he would cook up this big feast over at his house, and my wife and I would come over for dinner. His daughters were taking dance lessons, and he used to go to all the recitals. He was the type of guy who would make you feel good about yourself. You always got the sense that he was on your side.

Area Quotes
Joe will make an excellent facilitator for dance in this area if he's given the time, space and resources. There are people in Buffalo who control the resources and who make the difference, and you have to have dancers like Joe and Cathy, who have a national and international reputation, to create the buzz that will bring the money out of these leading companies or families.

Cool Quotes
I think it's a natural progression. The door have been nudged on and pushed on for years, and it's sort of giving way now. If you research music, the foundation of most contemporary music originates from the South. It's just the natural progression of time and music that it comes back to the place where it originated from. I think it's beautiful, and snap is a new movement that allows people to stay current and allows people to dance again. Everybody wants to be hard, everybody wants to be gangsters. Yeah, that's cool but we also gotta learn how to have fun.

Achievement Quotes
I think Will has done a superb job and the team has too, obviously. It's a step in this process for a school that went from (Division) III to II and I, and this is not a culmination by a long shot, but to get into the dance is a tremendous accomplishment, when you look at where the basketball team was four years ago.

Accuse Quotes
People accuse us of being nothing more than a disco band now, but they don't know what they're talking about. If you listen to our records, you'll find that there's dance music. But there are also ballads like 'More Than A Woman.' And there are some very beautiful, undanceable songs, too.

Balanced Quotes
I was unemployed after finishing Save the Last Dance and I went out for this other role. It wasn't like, "Okay, now I'm going to do tv." It was like, I have to pay my rent and my student loan, what can I do? I'm lucky that the show is doing well, so it looks like I've got this balanced plan.

Art Quotes
I think my first experience of art, or the joy in making art, was playing the horn at some high-school dance or bar mitzvah or wedding, looking at a roomful of people moving their bodies around in time to what I was doing. There was a piano player, a bass player, a drummer, and my breath making the melody.

Bringing Quotes
I think music can be many things to many people. I think it should exist on many levels. I think that music can exist on dance and rhythm and movement and at the same time, exist on a very high intellectual level. You can come to the music bringing whatever understanding you have and find something in it that you can connect with.

African Quotes
I was quite taken with her, because I'd never seen the African influence in dance with that kind of strength and artistic power. It impacted my soul. No one had reached those heights. She was the definitive black dance company. She moved among the highest intellectuals of black culture, all the writers and painters and literary folk.

Age Quotes
Wilson was a consummate entertainer. He truly loved to perform, and when he took the stage, he would give the audience every last bit of energy in his body. The unique sound and quality of his voice only got better with age, singing his hits in their original keys well into his 60s. He influenced generations of singers and musicians. No matter what your age is, his records will pull you out of your seat onto the dance floor. Soulful and intense, that was Pickett, the music and the man.

Colors Quotes
We had to turn up the colors in the dance sequences to make people feel that there were different levels of the film. I was not so fond of that, because it made the dancing more glamorous in a superficial way than what I really wanted, but it was necessary for the understanding of the two levels.

Amount Quotes
We have an enormous amount of great teachers out there, terrific teachers ... but we cannot get rid of the bad teachers. They're called the lemons. Each school has those lemons. And they call it the dance of the lemons, where they kick them from school to school but you can't get them out, ... What I say is, 'Let's kick them right out and let's dance them out the door rather than dancing them from school to school.'
