Now there is in a way a renaissance of modern dance - suddenly, it is more respected and discovered.

I don't go to a gym, I don't do yoga. I don't do personal training.

When a body moves, it's the most revealing thing. Dance for me a minute, and I'll tell you who you are.

I do not try to dance better than anyone else. I only try to dance better than myself.

Be. Good. To yourself, to other people, to everything you do. It's a norm of life by which people should try to live. Don't waste time. Be interesting and interested.

The more injuries you get, the smarter you get.

I was not extremely patriotic about Mother Russia. I played their game, pretending. You have to deal with, you know, party people, KGB. Horrifying.

I didn't want to wake up. I was having a much better time asleep. And that's really sad.

This constant mental diatribe and the frustrations, worries, insecurities and muscular tension that ensues are the self.

Stuffed cats are able to creep more convincingly than live ones.

I went to play golf and tried to shoot my age, but I shot my weight instead.

It wasn't about me trying to lose weight. It was all about emotions.

I may win and I may lose, but I will never be defeated

Justice and peace can only thrive together, never apart.

And I, stepping from this skin Of old bandages, boredoms, old faces Step to you from the black car of Lethe, Pure as a baby.

Hurry up Gene, I got a date tonight.
