  1. There's a lot I don't ski, I don't play tennis, I wouldn't do hardly any sports, and I love sports. I do swim. Obviously, I wouldn't put much strain on my body. But you just want to keep your fitness and you want to look good all the time. So you never let your guard down. And I just need to let my guard down a little bit more.

  2. Yeah, and it's funny because everybody goes, Oh, but you still look like you're only 18. And you go, but I don't feel like that. And my body just doesn't recover as quick as it used to. And that's painful. So you come in, and I had Roman Juliet the other day, and the next morning I was on stage doing another ballet, you know, early in the morning. And it's not as easy for me. I mean, it might look the same as it does on everybody else, but it's actually more painful on my joints.

  4. I think just because of trying to cope with the pressures and I have two gorgeous children and I feel like sometimes, you know, I love my work and I love every bit about it, but I can't always do both.

  5. My husband has. Well, he'd like you to keep going. Yeah. And then he says, you sure, you know, you can change your mind. You don't just because you've made an announcement, but actually it's taken me long enough, you know, to, and I know the decision is right. Why do you know?
