Let the lover be disgraceful, crazy, absentminded. Someone sober will worry about events going badly. Let the lover be. – Rumi, as interpreted by Coleman Barks
I dont mean being famous is a perk, because one knows that its not necessarily a perk, but there are certain perks to being well-known and respected in ones field. Public perks. Like, I dont know, general friendliness and willingness to please, just to point out two. – Emma Thompson
That the work involved, the willingness to take chances, the commitment, the opportunity to get on stage and make people happy, was more important than becoming famous, or even what I was dancing. – Suzanne Farrell
