Ballet is important and significant - yes. But first of all, it is a pleasure.
I cannot move, I cannot even want to move, unless I hear the music first.
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.
Ballet will speak for itself. About itself.
The mirror is not you. The mirror is you looking at yourself.
It's like the time capsule with everything in it. Or like the seed that when you plant it, becomes the enormous tree with leaves and fruit. Everybody was in that little seed, and so everything can open. The tree of dance is like that. It just takes a long, long time to blossom.
