The artist is the only lover; he alone has the pure vision of beauty, and love is the vision of the soul when it is permitted to gaze upon immortal beauty.

The only dance masters I could have were Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Walt Whitman and Nietzsche.

The Dance of the Future will have to become again a high religious art as it was with the Greeks. For art which is not religious is not art, it is mere merchandise

To awaken human emotion is the highest level of art.

The first essential in writing about anything is that the writer should have no experience of the matter.

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.

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