Dancing of late years has been degraded to the narrow limits and low professionalism of mere mechanical proficiency, associated with the most frivolous... phases of the stage. But this day is fading...We are turning our gaze inward, learning to seek there the divine sources of the dance, to the end that it may flower into new and more glorious forms of beauty and wealth

As we rise higher in the understanding of ourselves, the national and racial dissonances will be forgotten in the universal rhythms of Truth and Love

I have lived so long because in those moments when I am dancing, I am beyond time and space.

Right here where you and I stand, we shall behold a true and radiant world. In that world, we shall dance only our divine essence.

Remembering that man is indeed the microcosm, the universe in miniature, the Divine Dance of the future should be able to convey with its slightest gestures some significance of the universe.

I see dance being used as communication between body and soul, to express what it too deep to find for words.

We should realize in a vivid and revolutionary sense that we are not in our bodies but our bodies are in us.
