Let us first teach little children to breathe, to vibrate, to feel, and to become one with the general harmony and movement of nature. Let us first produce a beautiful human being, a dancing child.

What I am interested in doing is finding and expressing a new form of life

Virtuous people are simply those who have not been tempted sufficiently, because they live in a vegetative state, or because their purposes are so concentrated in one direction that they have not had the leisure to glance around them.

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

Movements are as eloquent as words.

The dancer's body is simply the luminous manifestation of her soul...This is the truly creative dancer, natural but not imitative, speaking in movement out of herself and out of something greater than all selves.

So that ends my first experience of matrimony, which I always thought a highly over-rated performance.
