air expressing feet means move outlet prove
I have no desire to prove anything by dancing. I have never used it as an outlet or a means of expressing myself. I just dance. I just put my feet in the air and move them around.

dancing remember prodigies
I don't remember anybody ever pointing me out as a dancing prodigy, but I played a not bad second base.
dark color ties
The unpadded shoulders, the three-buttoned long and boxy coat, the too-short, thin pants, and the thin ties with striped buttoned shirts in dark colors-well, I suppose this may go very well with some personalities but it's not for me. To me, all such look like TV producers. Maybe they want to.
dance stage terror
Slippery stages were the terror of my life.
dance feet messages
I am bit sending messages with my feet. All I ever wanted was not to come up empty. I did it for the dough and the old applause.
get-better vaudeville remember
I have never had anything that I can remember in the business - and that includes all the movies and the stage shows and everything - that I didn't enjoy. I didn't like some of the small-time vaudeville, because we weren't going on and getting better. Aside from that, I didn't dislike anything.
technology littles
Can't act. Can't sing. Slightly bald. Can dance a little.
cameras
Either the camera will dance, or I will.
motivational dance moving
Oh, God! That boy moves in a very exceptional way. That's the greatest dancer of the century.
running laughter singing
I inherited the knowledge that sometimes (talents) not only skip a generation, but sometimes run screaming from it. Ironically, it was the singing non-ability that helped feed my love of laughter.
white ties hats
I don't like top hats, white ties, and tails.
