Every dance is a kind of fever chart, a graph of the heart.

I have heard stories that it was love at first sight for both of us, that we disappeared to a guest room at Merle's house, had our meals sent up, and didn't emerge for several days. This is absolutely untrue. I would never behave like that as a guest in someone's home. Carlos and I went to my beach house.

You will only get out of a dance class what you bring to it. Learn by practice.

Repetition not for monotony but the ecstasy it induces.

The body is a sacred garment.

Dancers are the messengers of the gods.

Stand up! Keep your backs straight! Remember that this is where the wings grow.
