Famous quotes

  • « True leadership lies in guiding others to success. In ensuring that everyone is performing at their best, doing the work they are pledged to do and doing it well. »
    Bill Owens
  • « I wanted to be a dancer my whole life. And when I gave it up to act, I always had a really sad part of myself that missed it and missed performing and missed being physical in that way. »
    Lyndsy Fonseca
  • « I never expected to get the Tom Jones treatment and it amazes me that I do. Strangely it's women who throw their underwear at me when I'm performing live. My male fans tend to be quite shy. My female fans are wild. I never know what to do with all the lingerie that lands at my feet. Maybe I should open a shop. »
    Ellie Goulding
  • « I went to the Performing Arts School and studied classical ballet. That attitude is something that's put into your head. You are never thin enough. »
    Carmen Electra
  • « Originally the dream was about traveling and developing a job that would permit me to travel. And I decided to go into street performing because it was a traveling job it would let me go around the world. »
    Guy Laliberte
