Ballet Is More Than A Profession -

Dancers Are Both Athletes And Artists.

I Think Perhaps I've Learned To Be Myself. I Have A Theory That All Artists Who Would Be Important - Painters And Writers - Must Learn To Be Themselves. It Takes A Very Long Time.

Genius Is Another Word For Magic.

The One Important Thing I Have Learned Over The Years Is The Difference Between Taking One's Work Seriously And Taking One's Self Seriously. The First Is Imperative And The Second Is Disastrous.
