Theater is a verb before it is a noun, an act before it is a place.

I have spent all my life with dance and being a dancer. It's permitting life to use you in a very intense way. Sometimes it is not pleasant. Sometimes it is fearful. But nevertheless it is inevitable.

The reason dance has held such an ageless magic for the world is that it has been the symbol of the performance of living.

Dancers today can do anything; the technique is phenomenal. The passion and the meaning to their movement can be another thing.

Nothing is more revealing than movement.

All things I do are in every woman. Every woman is Medea. Every woman is Jocasta. There comes a time when a woman is a mother to her husband. Clytemnestra is every woman when she kills.

I believe one thing: that today is yesterday and tomorrow is today and you can't stop.
