Dancer Quotes

Think of a ballet dancer at the barre. Plie, eleve, battement tendu. She is practicing, because she knows that there is no difference between practice and art. The practice is the art Picture Quote #1

I think people are people and, if their feelings are truthful, they can connect. It doesn’t matter if you’re an aging, 50-something wrestler at the end of his career, or an ambitious, 20-something ballet dancer Picture Quote #1

I really wanted to be a dancer, actually. Michael Jackson inspired me a lot Picture Quote #1

If one had to define one essential gift with which a dancer needs to be endowed, there might be a rush of answers. A beautiful body, grace of line, graciousness of spirit, joy in the work, ability to please, unswerving integrity, relentless ambition towards some abstract perfection. Certainly all these factors determine a dancer’s character, and every element exists in some combination within the performing artist’s presence Picture Quote #1

I was a dancer when I got discovered, and I started working immediately. I started being in commercials and doing guest star roles. My first big thing, which happened maybe six months after being discovered, was ‘Bring It On: All or Nothing.’ Picture Quote #1

I always did plays. When I was in kindergarten, I got chosen to be Alvin in ‘The Chipmunks.’ We did a Chipmunks song. I was always a natural performer. It was easy for me. I danced and I sang, and all that stuff. I felt like I’d be something in the arts, but it vacillated between being a dancer and a singer, or whatever Picture Quote #1

For me, as an actress, being a dancer has helped me. I’ve done it with my feet bloody Picture Quote #1

It’s important for a dancer to wear very tight underpants. I used to feel a bit exposed if I wasn’t being held up in the right place Picture Quote #1

I’ve had an extraordinary life as a dancer. You tour the world, you see all the great capitals of the world, the beautiful old opera houses all over Europe - you go everywhere. As a teenager, I would always say, ‘I can’t believe this is happening to little me,’ because it was always a dream to dance Picture Quote #1

I will never be the best dancer or artist. I will be growing until the day I retire Picture Quote #1

The best thing you can say about Hubbard Street is that if you were a dancer, this is a company you’d fight to get into Picture Quote #1

As a kid, I was a dancer in Dick Whittington, Snow White and Cinderella. When I was 14, I played Baby Bear. I had a big head on, and you couldn’t see my face. My mum was very disappointed Picture Quote #1

My biggest dream is to be able to be in a movie or some great TV show where I get to dance, and it’s about a contemporary dancer of some kind Picture Quote #1

When I was a dancer, I felt this great sense of knowing my body and being in my body, and I think it’s really easy as women to lose that and not really be one and loving it Picture Quote #1

I was a dancer before I was an actress, so I’ve always been someone who likes to communicate from my body and movement Picture Quote #1

A dancer must listen to his body and pay homage to it. Behind the movement lies this terrible, driving passion, this necessity. I won’t settle for anything less Picture Quote #1

I was always active as a kid. I was a professional figure skater for many years and I was a dancer, so it’s just been part of my life, and I think that creates a certain body type Picture Quote #1

I am dancing all the time. Every gesture, the body line of every pose, the way I get from place to place, the movement in the acting - none of it would be the way it is if I weren’t a dancer Picture Quote #1

In 92, I got my first Broadway show as a performer - ‘Crazy for You.’ I was in the ensemble. In fact, I was in eight Broadway shows as a dancer. Seven of them were original shows. That’s how I learned to create something from the ground up Picture Quote #1

I was a dancer from about the age of four, so I was always performing and forcing my parents to watch my brother and I do ‘Jesus Christ Super Star’ in the living room. My first step was community theater, and then I started to do films Picture Quote #1

When I was younger ,I used to want to be, like, a back-up dancer, and my mom was like, ‘Well, you know, you can do that, but you might want to choose another career.’ Picture Quote #1

What did Isabelle want? Jace asked. Alec hesitated. Isabelle says the Queen of the Seelie Court has requested an audience with us. Sure, said Magnus. And Madonna wants me as a backup dancer on her next world tour Picture Quote #1

You open a section of ‘The New York Times,’ and there’s a review or a story on a choreographer or a dancer, and there’s an informative, clear image of a dancer. This is, in my view, not an interesting photograph Picture Quote #1

I didn’t want to be a dancer. I just did it to work my way through college. But I was always an athlete and gymnast, so it came naturally Picture Quote #1

There are positives to moving around and changing companies: you put things in perspective; you can compare living and working conditions. Living in one city, you tend to take things for granted; your view is much more narrow. In Europe, a dancer can leave for a year and still keep her original contract Picture Quote #1

My niece was born with cystic fibrosis 15 years ago, and she’s incredibly healthy and an incredible competitive dancer, so I’m going to do some events for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Picture Quote #1
