Pity makes the world soft to the weak and noble to the strong.
Dance to me is my home. I say dance is my home, because in a home, you want love, creativity, respect, all these things, and to me that's everything that encompasses dance. So I feel at my best when I'm dancing. It helps me to be strong and to release so many of my emotions and be in tune with myself.
My strong point, if I have a strong point, is performance. I always do more than I say. I always produce more than I promise.
The guys today are just too strong and back then they would take many hard punches to land one.
I always come from a female perspective and a strong music base, trying to keep a positive slant on things. It's important for you to do what you love and not let anyone bring you down, and I keep that message throughout. I like writing songs all females can relate to - songs about when you're a chick and you get your heart broken and you go shopping.
I try to perfect my strong points and make my weaknesses adequate.

Canada plays a major part in our decision-making and helps keep the vital bond between Europe and North America strong.

Let there always be a preponderance of mercy with you, even though you don't feel such mercy in yourself, as God has for the world. . . A cruel and merciless heart is never purified. A merciful man is the doctor of his own soul, because as it were a by a strong wind from is heart he drives out the darkness of the passions.

All slander must still be strangled in its birth, or time will soon conspire to make it strong enough to overcome the truth.
I have remained true to my deepest convictions. I mean the courage of those who are born to be defeated, the weaknesses of the strong, and the tragedy of misunderstandings and missed opportunities, which I have done my best to treat as comedy—for otherwise how can we manage to bear it?
The movies I did before were movies with a lot of characters, a lot of locations, and low budgets, which meant that I was running all over the place and never had the chance to build a relationship with an actor. I was always having big, strong relationships with the cinematographers or editors or production designers, but not with the actors.
I'm told my SF is of the hard variety and my Fantasy is romantic but hopefully all the characters are strong and the plots are lively.
