Dance is the movement of the universe concentrated in an individual.

My art is just an effort to express the truth of my being in gesture and movement. It has taken me long years to find even one absolutely true movement.

I would rather live in Russia on black bread and vodka than in the United States at the best hotels. America knows nothing of food, love or art.

Dance is the movement of the universe concentrated in an individual.

I am seeking that dance which might be the divine expression of the human spirit through the medium of the body's movement.

These people seemed so enwrapped in snobbishness and the glory of being rich that they had no art sense whatever.

The dancer will not belong to a nation but to all humanity.
