Cheryl Burke Quotes

Music is the universal language of mankind.

I like to see people's eyes when I'm singing to them.

When I'm singing I feel like I'm talking to someone. I'm in conversation when I perform - either with myself or with whomever is listening.

Music is like making love: either all or nothing.

You know, I think music is very interactive. It's a - it's a language.

It's strange that words are so inadequate. Yet, like the asthmatic struggling for breath, so the lover must struggle for words.

Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away and every ounce of energy you try to give away as the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play.

When I'm working, I'm very purposeful and everything else gets out of focus. Something I've had to work on together with my wife is how to acknowledge each other in the midst of this and keep the relationship going.

I mean, what is music anyway? It's a form of communication - at least for me it is. And that's why I play the kind of music that I think - that I hope - can communicate with people.

I love to dance and perform the Argentine tango - it breathes love!

If someone had told me years ago that sharing a sense of humour was so vital to partnerships, I could have avoided a lot of sex!

The Argentine tango is very special to me because it's full of sensuality. The chemistry between the man and woman is absolutely stunning.

Love cannot express the idea of music, while music may give an idea of love.

Relationships are important, but stay focused on all the things that are important. Figure out what you want.

If you say, I love you, then you have already fallen in love with language, which is already a form of break up and infidelity.

Language is a skin: I rub my language against the other. It is as if I had words instead of fingers, or fingers at the tip of my words. My language trembles with desire.

Music is the way I understand how to communicate now, the way that I've learned how to communicate... but it will eventually have to go beyond that. You see, I've realised that music is not what keeps people involved - it's the attitude behind the music.

Music is the shorthand of emotion.

Music is the soul of language.

Rock is so much fun. That's what it's all about - filling up the chest cavities and empty kneecaps and elbows.

Music is the social act of communication among people, a gesture of friendship, the strongest there is.

I've definitely been in relationships where I've given too much, and I've been in relationships where I haven't given enough. I think it's a work in progress. I have to find that person where it clicks.

The greatest music is made for love, not for money.

I project love, music and love, and I pray for peace. A good song cuts straight to the heart; sometimes it doesn't need to be too many lines - of course, I do love a good story.

Be honest with yourself and the way you act when you hear music. That way, when people watch, they'll see something from your heart and soul, and as a result will communicate your feeling and thought much better.
