The Mirror Is Not You. The Mirror

Dance Is Music Made Visible

The Ballet Is A Purely Female Thing; It Is A Woman, A Garden Of Beautiful Flowers, And Man Is The Gardener.

They Are Poets Of Gesture.

It's Like The Time Capsule With Everything In It. Or Like The Seed That When You Plant It, Becomes The Enormous Tree With Leaves And Fruit. Everybody Was In That Little Seed, And So Everything Can Open. The Tree Of Dance Is Like That. It Just Takes A Long, Long Time To Blossom.

Ballet Dancing Is Arduous, Strenuous Activity. Students Are Engaged In Physical Training That Rivals The Training Olympic Athletes Undergo. At The Same Time, They Strive For Physical Perfection Not For The Prowess Alone But As A Way Of Achieving The Means Necessary To Express The Pure Nature Of Their Art.
