"When you're in love, you imagine every dance to be real. It's not! There are beautiful dances, joyful dances, dances that give momentary happiness, lust and self-forgetfulness - but they are not real. True dance endures the distance. Resists aging. It can handle letting go. He can stand the fact that I don't see him for a long time, he doesn't hug me, he's not by my side, he's somewhere else, he's far away, he doesn't even think about me... but he still hears the music we share, and when the time comes, he'll come back to me and we'll continue to hang out together.

""Ha szerelmes vagy, minden táncról azt képzeled, hogy igazi. Nem az! Vannak szép táncok, örömteli táncok, pillanatnyi boldogságot, kéjt és önfeledtséget adó táncok - de nem igaziak. Az igaz tánc kibírja a távolságot. Kibírja az öregedést. Kibírja az elengedést. Kibírja, hogy sokáig nem látom, nem ölel, nincs mellettem, máshol jár, messze jár, nem is gondol rám... de a közös zenét mégis hallja, s ha eljön az ideje, visszatér hozzám, és együtt forgunk tovább."
