Every Ballet, Whether Or Not Successful Artistically

No Dancer Can Watch Fred Astaire And Not Know That We All Should Have Been In Another Business.

I Really Reject That Kind Of Comparison That Says, Oh, He Is The Best. This Is The Second Best. There Is No Such Thing.

Every Ballet, Whether Or Not Successful Artistically Or With The Public, Has Given Me Something Important.

No One Is Born A Dancer. You Have To Want It More Than Anything.

What Brought Me To The Theater, No Matter You're A Jew Or A Russian Or Armenian Or Latvian, Are Suddenly Illuminated By Stage Light And One Beautiful Image Of Dance.
