John was the smartest and most amazing comedian I've ever worked with. I think more than teaching me about acting or comedy he taught me about life and the love of people and respect of people.

If you love dance and you have the gift of teaching teaching is super amazing and important because my teachers planted that seed in me. As a teacher you understand the difference or the definition of a Baryshnikov or a Gregory Hines so teaching is really important and very necessary.

I've traveled all over the country for years speaking in churches teaching the Ten Commandments. It's amazing if 2 percent of any congregation knows the Ten Commandments.

Benevolence alone will not make a teacher nor will learning alone do it. The gift of teaching is a peculiar talent and implies a need and a craving in the teacher himself.

I wanted to be a teacher. I love children so I wanted to deal with children. Then I wanted to be a veterinarian. But by the age of ten or eleven when I opened my mouth and said 'Oh God what's this?' I kind of knew teaching and being a veterinarian were gonna have to wait.
