"There are things that are not sayable. Thatâ€™s why we have art."

-- Leonora Carrington

“You never know what motivates you.”
“Basic dance--and I should qualify the word basic--is primarily concerned with motion. So immediately you will say but the basketball player is concerned with motion. That is so--but he is not concerned with it primarily. His action is a means towards an end beyond motion. In basic dance the motion is its own end--that is, it is concerned with nothing beyond itself.”
“The great challenge facing us today is to learn once again how to talk to one another, not simply how to generate and consume information. The latter is a tendency which our important and influential modern communications media can encourage. Information is important, but it is not enough. All too often things get simplified, different positions and viewpoints are pitted against one another, and people are invited to take sides, rather than to see things as a whole.”
“Being in love is an exhausting business.”
“Performing doesn't turn me on. It's an egomaniac business, filled with prima donnas - including this one.”
“Don't forget, I'm a dragon, I can fly, in the shortest amount of time, I'll bring all my members with me and we'll come to your side.”
“I am an unpopular electric eel in a pool of catfish.”
“We find the Works of Nature still more pleasant, the more they resemble those of art.”
