I only do business with the people I do business with. The people I do business with find out I do business with the people I don't do business with.... I can't do business with you.

Does any art have a practical value? People love to talk about how expensive a painting is. That's the only way we can talk about paintings in this century.

The rich live hand-to-mouth too-just on a higher level.

And it is always Easter Sunday at the New York City Ballet. It is always coming back to life. Not even coming back to life - it lives in the constant present.

I'm sure there are some good dramaturgs but I've never worked with one.

All the New York City Ballet does is hit beautiful home runs.

Oh god, I'd just hate it if a certain dramaturg got a hold of a Pinter play, for example, which are all mystery and all music. That's how the life get's sucked out of plays.
