I love art and I find myself at the MoMA all the time. Museums are a real refuge for me. I go to a museum for any break that I have, and I'm very inspired by art.

I know a lot of choreographers prefer to do abstract dance and not be bothered with a story, but even when I'm asked to do classical ballet or a modern piece, I still want to tell a story.

I tell stories through dance, and I think that's why I'm so attracted to the theatre because even the choreography in theatre moves the plot forward at all times.

I don't want to work with someone who's nervous, I want to work with someone who is fearless

I think a woman who is successful is critiqued more harshly than a man is critiqued.

I believe in serendipity, but I also believe there are times when you have to be the one who lines up everything so it can fall into place.

I am a storyteller, and I grew up with a father who told big-fish stories, so storytelling is very much a part of me. It was a part of my family.

I think theatres will always remain a sacred place where people go for something live and experience things live, which is very different than the experience of film.

I'm really happy when I'm immersed in the art of it all - immersed in the music, the dance, the visual. Tapping into joy - it saves you.

I always say that you can't be afraid to ask the question. What's the worst that could happen? The answer could be "no" and you go on.

I would love to direct a play. But I think when people look at me they see music and dancing and singing.

I won't be affected by your charm nor I will trap you into marriage. I've been there once, never again.- Kristine

Beliefs shape the size of our opportunities. Love expands them beyond faith.

Time is a most versatile resource. It flies, marches on, works wonders, and will tell. It also runs out.

Never be afraid of your Bibles.

People say you don't need a father to be successful. I take offense to that.

Activity and creativity almost always flow to the least regulated arena.

You can never take your reputation back. There really is nothing as powerful as a good reputation.

I pick up the details that drive the organization insane. But sweating the details is more important than anything else

I work with companies like Audiostiles to put together mixes for my restaurants. I even created a soundtrack for my television show.

Physical infidelity is the signal, the notice given, that all fidelities are undermined.
