I love to lose myself in other men's minds.
I am forced to say that I have many fiercer critics than myself.
One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.

I wrote a lot of 'Driving on the Rim' by giving myself the gift of being just as eccentric as I felt like.
I'm so critical of my own work that it's difficult for me to disassociate myself and watch it as an audience.
They have vilified me, they have crucified me; yes, they have even criticized me.
I got kicked out of ballet class because I pulled a groin muscle. It wasn't mine.
In 1981, I spoke at the Olympic Congress. I was scandalised that I was the first athlete to be given that chance. But I made the most of it.
