It has always been my dream and ambition to introduce Irish dancing to the world.

You're out on stage, the music is blaring, the crowd is screaming, the lights are flashing, your heart is pumping, the sweat is flying, and it's the greatest feeling in the whole world.

Whenever I hear, 'It can't be done,' I know I'm close to success.

Life isn't about the number of times you're knocked down, it's about the number of times you get back up.

Since I was a kid, I've been a dancer, and, of course, I'll always be a dancer till the day I die.

Anything is possible. I've got a few more miles in me. I'm not going to feel sorry for myself.

Promise me you will appreciate every moment because we are the lucky ones

I can go back to when I was six years old. I was always getting in trouble for dreaming, and the things I got in trouble for dreaming then are the things I'm doing today.

I'm not an egomaniac like a lot of people say. But I am the world's best dancer, that's for sure.

When's the last time you walked by a pub in Dublin and heard Irish music? When's the last time you ordered a coffee and heard an Irish accent?

I feel like a tiger right now. There's nothing impossible if you get up and work for it.

Reputations seldom deliver on promises of happiness.

There is no victory at bargain basement prices.

A picture should be looked at - not talked about.

I was going up to the bathroom and a woman asked me: "Have you a good memory for faces?" I asked why and she said: "Because there isn't a mirror up there."

I observe many people who say they are meditating, but I sure don't see them meditating. They sit and touch a lot of people, places and things psychically, but they sure don't meditate.

All my life, I've dreamed in gold.

What the word God means is the mystery really. It's the mystery that we face as humans the mystery of existence, of suffering and of death.

When water is still like a mirror it can behold the Moon.

I am against using death as a punishment. I am also against using it as a reward.

I am Tina Yothers and I'll never be anyone different.
