“For every dancer, no matter how amazing your career, there's more to life than ballet. Being adored by your audience, it's only part of the story.”

“Since finishing my professional dancing career, I've been conscious of not letting myself go.”

“I know some people aspire to a ballerina's body, but I looked forward to feeling more feminine.”

“I was set free because my greatest fear had been realized, and I still had a daughter who I adored, and I had an old typewriter and a big idea. And so rock bottom became a solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.”

“I've always just adored clothes and material things and the vanity of American pop culture and fashion. I just think it's so grouchy and fun.”

“I adored 'Breaking The Waves,' so when Lars von Trier wanted me in 'Dogville,' I was beside myself with joy. He works in a way that nobody I've ever worked with works.”
