Airbus Side Stick operation ????

Looking for info on the basic side stick operation on the airbus.
Am I correct in saying the following :
In the roll move the side stick until you got the required bank angle and then centre the stick. In Pitch move the stick to get to the required pitch attitude and then centre the stick. The aircraft will then stay at that attitude until the reverse is applied.
The speed of moving the stick gives you the roll / pitch rate.
Is that correct ?????
