or that I was in trouble...
or that we would get into trouble together -

Musicality is when
the dancers' movements appear to create the music -
and not the other way around.

My life isn't theories and formulas. It's part instinct, part common sense. Logic is as good a word as any, and I've absorbed what logic I have from everything and everyone . . . from my mother, from training as a ballet dancer, from magazine, from the laws of life and health and nature.

Audrey Hepburn (1929 - 1993)
