It's alright, just wait and see, your string of lights is still bright to me. Who you are is not where you've been. You're still an innocent. It's okay life is a tough crowd, 32 is still growing up now.

Dance is like life. It exists as you are flitting through it, and when it's over, it's done.
Interpretation
What this quote means

This quote by Jerome Robbins highlights the transient essence of both dance and life.

Most surrender to the vague but murderous pressure of adult conformity. It becomes easier to die and avoid conflict than to maintain a constant battle with the superior forces of maturity.
