One is born to be a great dancer.

Why are you stingy with yourselves? Why are you holding back? What are you saving for - for another time? There are no other times. There is only now. Right now.

First comes the sweat. Then comes the beauty if you're very lucky and have said your prayers.

What are you waiting for? What are you saving for? Now is all there is.

I have no literary approach - except to literature.

In my ballets, woman is first. Men are consorts. God made men to sing the praises of women. They are not equal to men: They are better.

The mirror is not you. The mirror is you looking at yourself.
