Parents Quotes
-
Most of the time it's the parents who recognise me.

And the kid is saying, 'That is not Giselle. No way. That is some worn-out girl who really needs a bath.'

You have to care about your work, but not about the result. You have to care about how good you are and how good you feel, but not about how good people think you are or how good people think you look.
