The beauty to which the Dance ought to aspire

The art of Mime encompasses all the feelings of the soul. The Dance, on the other hand, is essentially an expression of joy, a desire to follow the rhythms of the music.

It is not so much upon the number of exercises, as the care with which they are done, that progreses and skill depend.

The height of artistic skill is to know how to conceal the mechanical effort and strain beneath harmonious calm.

The beautiful always retains the freshness of novelty, while the astonishing soon grow tiresome.

It is a fine art because it strives for an ideal, not only in plastic but also in lyrical respect.

The beauty to which the Dance ought to aspire is not dependent upon taste or pleasure, but is founded on the immutable laws of Nature.

Joy is a strength; intoxication, a weakness.

The Dance is an art because it demands vocation, knowledge, and ability.

Having something is not always better than not having it.

We love because we can lose. If there was no threat of separation, no death to shake us to our core, we probably wouldn't love much at all.

Shut up, you fool...Really. I’m running out of things to throw at you.

The whole world is my family.

I like working solo and it was a lot of fun joking around with the audience, saying things. I'm only just learning how to do certain things.

There are no permanent friends or permanent enemies, just permanent interests.

You see, unlike in the movies, there is no THE END sign flashing at the end of books. When I've read a book, I don't feel like I've finished anything. So I start a new one.

The problem is that most people focus on their failures rather than their successes. But the truth is that most people have many more successes than failures.

I was so young, and making movies, going to the studio every morning at dawn was magic.

In every generation, the world is changed by a few people, who stand for something, do not fear unpopularity and dare to make a difference.
