Art is about energy positive and negative. All art has the power to heal because it helps us see who we are, and what we resist.

New York was the only city I knew in the world where you could be desperately lonely at nine in the morning, crossing the street for a bagel at Gristede's, and find that seven hours later you were drinking Irish coffee at P.J. Clarke's with all the friends you had inherited along the way.

I've always thought I was looking for myself whenever I traveled. Like a journey anywhere was really a journey through myself.

There's no journey worth taking except the journey through one's self. That's the most important journey you take. I found that out as I went around the world many times: I was learning about me.

I mean, I'm just speaking of my own experiences and my own desires, and it's a kind of a childlike wonder that could really possibly speculate on other dimensions.

You can't lie when you dance. It's so direct. You do what is in you. It is impossible to dance out of the side of your mouth.

You can't take a crash course in serenity.
