I was never hungry for this kind of attention; it was the love of performing that got me interested in acting.

I'm a performer and have managed to get my performing into the mainstream consciousness of the world, I guess.

This is my religion. I take long breaks now when I don't perform and I am not myself when I am not performing.

I decided to always sing in the back with the chorus and never went up front because I had trouble performing.

When I was performing on streets, there was no pressure. People accepted me. They loved me without knowing me.

I can remember back as far as age 8, performing with the Boston Folk Song Society. It was a Woody Guthrie song.

I'm really happy and had such an amazing time performing at Super Bowl - wish I could relive it all over again.

I love doing sitcoms and I love performing in front of a live audience, so [Payne] was a really fun experience.

I know how to put it on when it comes to interviews and performing because I have to. But I'm pretty laid back.

I hope that, somewhere, Mom and Dad are proud that little Walter is performing with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

We'll be in our 60s performing 'Push It' somewhere. Good old 'Push It.' I don't know what it is about that song.

Performing has always been something I wanted to do. My dad had a video camera and I loved being in front of it.

I come from a family rooted in the arts, so I think I naturally gravitated towards performing from an early age.

I shouldn't be moving with my head down or hiding behind my hair or thinking about my hair while I'm performing.

I can interpret my own work honestly. And performing by myself seems to focus the attention in the right places.

I think theatricality is just one way of performing. I don't think it's a better way or the way, but it's my way.

I don't care about the charts; I just want to make great music that I enjoy performing on stage and I'm proud of.

I started out as a dancer as a kid; I've been dancing since I was 4. So performing was always part of what I was.

I don't even know at what age I started, because it's always been there. Performing... creating... it's in my DNA.

My job of being a musician in a recording studio has nothing to do with being a musician being on tour performing.

I put my all into performing so people can walk away knowing a bit more about me and feel the passion in my story.

The thing I've always liked about performing is that I decide what I want to wear, whether I want to comb my hair.

I've always known that performing is what I want to do. There was never a defining moment. I just came out that way.

I went to a high school for the performing arts and I lived and breathed music. It kept me focused; it kept me sane.

I do, have done and always will believe that I am very capable of performing and thriving at any level of the sport.

I loved performing in the 'High School Musical' movies - that didn't seem like work - but the gym felt like torture!

I have a passion for playing tennis and enjoy the workload and struggles of performing in this amazing global sport.

I'm in the studio for hours in that tiny little box, and really, the performing part is what I'm most excited about.

Fiorello LaGuardia saved City Center. The real man saved it, and he made this building into a performing arts venue.

I want to be like Sutton Foster, Kristin Chenoweth or Anne Hathaway and do everything that has to do with performing.

I went to a performing arts high school, we learned Shakespeare, I did 'Fences.' When you train, you can do anything.

I look up to Andrea Boccelli and Sarah Brightman. The best part about 'America's Got Talent' was performing with her!

Performing in front of a live audience can be pretty intimidating, so having a full head of hair was important to me.

Jazz is a hard music, and you have to really work hard and also have fun performing; that's the most important thing.

I am having so much fun performing, I feel almost guilty. I think, my God, I hope no one comes and busts me for this.

Every summer, around late July and into August, I find myself in Europe, performing at any festival that will have me.

I love performing, signing autographs, taking 'selfies' with the fans. This is just what I feel like I was born to do.

We become just by performing just action, temperate by performing temperate actions, brave by performing brave action.

I love performing, and I love being in front of people. I love the pressure you get and the pleasure performing brings.

Fortunately for me, I'm in this unique business of not singing, not dancing, not performing - just kind of being there.

The international travelling gets harder as I get older, but when I'm performing on stage, it makes it all worth while.

I'm going to do less performing because I'm tired. It's hard to convince anybody that you're just going to take it easy.

I try not to get carried away and to only focus on the team goals to keep winning, to keep performing to the best I can.

I find that I get most of the same things I loved about performing in the ring when I do my live shows around the world.

While performing, I can't wear anything that I'm not going to be able to dance in or heels that don't have ankle support.

Preventive medicine isn't part of a physician's everyday routine, which is spent dispensing drugs and performing surgery.

It's all performing; that's what we do in life. We talk, we look, and we hear, and we listen. Your life is a performance.

It's fun when you're winning and performing well, but it's also hard because now you get older, you got responsibilities.

I love performing live, especially when I get in the zone. But the studio is really becoming a place I have grown to love.

Comedians sometimes forget that there's an audience. You gotta be conscious that you're performing for other human beings.
