I'm Just A Hoofer With A Spare

I Inherited The Knowledge That Sometimes (talents) Not Only Skip A Generation, But Sometimes Run Screaming From It. Ironically, It Was The Singing Non-ability That Helped Feed My Love Of Laughter.

When Working On My Choreography I Am Not Always Receptive To Outside Suggestions Or Opinions. I Believe That If You Have Something In Mind In The Way Of A Creation, Such As A New Dance, A Sequence, Or An Effect, You Are Certain To Come Up With Inaccurate Criticism And Damaging Results If You Go Around Asking For Opinions.

I Don't Remember Anybody Ever Pointing Me Out As A Dancing Prodigy, But I Played A Not Bad Second Base.

It's Nice That All The Composers Have Said That Nobody Interprets A Lyric Like Fred Astaire. But When It Comes To Selling Records I Was Never Worth Anything Particularly Except As A Collector's Item.

I Often Take A Brand-new Suit Or Hat And Throw It Up Against The Wall A Few Times To Get That Stiff, Square Newness Out Of It.
