A contra dance is like an amusement park ride we make for ourselves.

If I ever had to be on an amusement park ride, I probably wouldn't get on one; I'm not a very adventurous person!

From age 16 to age 20, a woman's body is a temple. From 21 to 45, it's an amusement park. From 45 on, it's a terrarium.

Some of these guys are going to ride down and just park their bikes and forget about them. They won't have to worry about drinking and driving or anything else. We hope that will cut down some of the noise and traffic.

To me, watching a movie is like going to an amusement park. My worst fear is making a film that people don't think is a good ride.

This [dance piece] is something we've been thinking about for a while. There seems to be some synergy between the three [songwriters]. We thought there was such a tight connection that to get all these things together in one production would be really fascinating.
