I've always seen myself as one of those 'show people.' My earliest memories are wanting and needing to entertain people, like a gypsy traveler who goes from place to place, city to city, performing for audiences and reaching people.
Brittany Murphy

I've been performing on stage since I was six years old.
Jewel Kilcher

I've been traveling all over the world for 25 years, performing, talking to people, studying their cultures and musical instruments, and I always come away with more questions in my head than can be answered.
Yo-Yo Ma

I've been working at performing for five years now. I've been working in Australia and Spain and England. When I was only 15 or 16, 1 was performing in bars; I could have had legal problems, but it's also the only way to get to know what music is all about.
Andy Gibb

If I live to be 90, and I'm planning to, I'll always love performing for a live audience.
Lawrence Welk

If you keep performing, and if you stay healthy, you keep playing.
Joe Sakic

In addition, the bill passed by the House requires a person performing an abortion on a minor from a different state to notify one parent in the home state.
Virgil Goode

In all my years of performing, no audience member has ever actually assaulted me. I consider this to be the singular triumph of my performing career.
Rupert Holmes

In opera, as with any performing art, to be in great demand and to command high fees you must be good of course, but you must also be famous. The two are different things.
Luciano Pavarotti

It was a dream come true performing with her and just being on the same record. So in my eyes, she was the epitome of a great voice and for us to share together was awesome.
Deborah Cox

It's incredibly moving to hear some of our greatest actors performing Shakespeare.
Judi Dench

It's kind of an art, going out and performing. I'd like fans to remember me as a guy who would go out and entertain them, give them quality matches, and not just the same old garbage every week.
Owen Hart

More than in any other performing arts the lack of respect for acting seems to spring from the fact that every layman considers himself a valid critic.
Simone Weil

Music is a performing art, as any Native American will tell you. It isn't there in the score.
Michael Tippett

Music is art, art is life, and we are who we are, and all of these aforementioned women, unless they should choose not to, will be performing well into the next many decades because they are great artists.
Lara St. John

My background was in performing originally.
Cy Coleman

My job is to make sure we keep performing.
Mats Sundin

My overnight success was really 15 years in the making. I'd been writing songs since I was 6 and playing in bands and performing since I was 14.
Lisa Loeb

No, we've been performing our old songs a little differently each performance.
Fred Schneider

Now I'm having the time of my life being on the road with one of the world's all-time great big bands, and performing with symphonies. I wouldn't trade it for anything.
