One Might Say That The American Trend

The Dancer's Body Is Simply The Luminous Manifestation Of The Soul. The True Dance Is An Expression Of Serenity; It Is Controlled By The Profound Rhythm Of Inner Emotion. Emotion Does Not Reach The Moment Of Frenzy Out Of A Spurt Of Action; It Broods First, It Sleeps Like The Life In The Seed, And It Unfolds With A Gentle Slowness. The Greeks Understood The Continuing Beauty Of A Movement That Mounted, That Spread, That Ended With A Promise Of Rebirth.

The Only Dance Masters I Could Have Were Jean-jacques Rousseau, Walt Whitman And Nietzsche.

I Do Not Teach Children, I Give Them Joy.

I Have Only Danced My Life. As A Child I Danced The Spontaneous Joy Of Growing Things. As An Adolescent, I Danced With Joy Turning To Apprehension Of The First Realisation Of Tragic Undercurrents; Apprehension Of The Pitiless Brutality And Crushing Progress Of Life.

The Finest Inheritance You Can Give To A Child Is To Allow It To Make Its Own Way, Completely On Its Own Feet.
