With what price we pay for the glory of motherhood.

I finally discovered the source of all movement, the unity from which all diversities of movement are born.

The finest inheritance you can give to a child is to allow it to make its own way, completely on its own feet.

The noblest art is the nude. This truth is recognized by all, and followed by painters, sculptors and poets. Only the dancer has forgotten it, who should remember it, as the instrument of [the dance] art is the human body itself.

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

If we seek the real source of the dance, if we go to nature, we find that the dance of the future is the dance of the past, the dance of eternity, and has been and always will be the same... The movement of waves, of winds, of the earth is ever the same lasting harmony.

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