Artist development is something that I've been passionate about from my days at Uptown and Motown Records.

I personally love to run outdoor fitness trails. I love the meditative value I get when out alone, challenging myself to run faster and higher.

The only thing that I have is the truth, so the only thing I fear is a lie.

'Saturday Night Fever,' Paula Abdul, 'Fame,' Debbie Allen... all affected me and the generation before me.

I'm a tough coach, but on the other side of that is me telling them to go all out, "because you're great, because I don't want you to fail, because you were born to do this and you have a dream."

I believe it's extremely important to include some other type of fitness activity in your training, so cross training will help you to avoid injury when you are dancing.

You are absolutely enough the way you are.

For me, a dancer is part of an artist’s entertainment - “backup dancer” isn’t even in my vocabulary.

I was very disenchanted in the industry for a long time before I met GaGa. Everyone wanted a "Single Ladies" for their artist, or a Puffy move.

Everyone has the notion that hip-hop is messy and loose, but there's also another level to it.

'Born This Way' is shaping up to be creative ecstasy.

Have you noticed that when we die, our eulogies celebrate our lives very differently from the way society defines success?

"I'm going over the valley." (Dying from throat cancer, his doctor found him wandering around his room, asked him where was he going?)

Watch the clouds. They will teach you about the world of form.

Shall we ever see the 10 million things of the universe simultaneously in order to be the all? I am convinced that to live is to travel towards the world's end.

Sometimes I have wished my insults were slaps or lashes; I've wanted to hit people in the face and make them see, if only for a day, what I see each day I help people.

Whenever I see the word Operation, especially Trifling Operation, I at once write off the patient as dead.

Why are we building golf courses? Because we enjoy being outside, bringing man and nature together.

The point about L-O-V-E is that we hate the word. Because we vulgarize it. It should be taboo, forbidden from utterance for many years, till we've found a new and a better idea.

True and False are attributes of speech, not of things. And where speech is not, there is neither Truth nor Falsehood.

The thing that I like about being me is that everybody gets a different feeling from me.
