Just when you arrive at the apex of your skills, it's time to retire. But as it turned out, I decided that since it was the thing that I felt I did best, I owed it to all that be to pursue it.

Dancing is like bank robbery, it takes split-second timing.

I have always felt one of the things dance should do - its business being so clearly physical - is challenge the culture's gender stereotypes.

If art is the bridge between what you see in your mind and what the world sees, then skill is how you build that bridge.

when dancing is right, the movement possesss a logic common to us all, an inevitability that takes it beyond the personal and egocentric and makes of it classical art.

Metaphor is the lifeblood of all art.

Alone is a fact, a condition where no one else is around. Lonely is how you feel about that.
