I found that dance, music, and literature is how I made sense of the world... it pushed me to think of things bigger than lifes daily routines... to think beyond what is immediate or convenient.

In the second part of life you get rid of stuff you've accumulated.

I am teaching more. That is what I do best.

Obviously, the young dancers lack a certain air of maturity.

I kind of lost interest in the classical dance. I was very much interested in the modern choreography.

It's weird when you see pieces of choreography that were done for you 15 or 20 years ago and now they are being done by another dance company.

I cannot stand authority.
