I do believe that when dancing is right, the movement possesses a logic common to us all.

It was not until I had graduated from college that I made a professional commitment to it. Frankly, I didn't think it wise. I was my own interior parental force, and it's very difficult to justify a profession as a dancer.

I think Tolstoy had an unbelievably complicated relationship with women.

The way I enjoyed spending time most was dancing. That's from the time I was a very small child, When I was 4 or 5 years old, I remember already having a regime. It was the way I always identified myself.

Reading, conversation, environment, culture, heroes, mentors, nature – all are lottery tickets for creativity. Scratch away at them and you’ll find out how big a prize you’ve won.

Doing is better than not doing, and if you do something badly you'll learn to do it better.

Dance is the stepchild of the arts.
