“I am tough for a reason and it is to fucking destroy the music. I dance hard.”
“I am love, I am music, she thinks. Let’s dance.”
“I think the reason why I'm the person who I am today is because I went through those tough times when I was younger.”
“Am I tough? Am I strong? Am I hard-core? Absolutely. Did I whimper with pathetic delight when I sank my teeth into my hot fried-chicken sandwich? You betcha.”
“If I had not kissed anyone, or danced with anyone, or had a reason to cry, the music made me feel as if I had gone through all that anyway.”
“My day is done, and I am like a boat drawn on the beach, listening to the dance-music of the tide in the evening.”
