Ballet Is More Than A

Dancing Was Something To Be Taken Very Seriously When Engaged In And Otherwise Put Out Of Mind.

Jumping For Joy' Is A Very Basic Human Reaction, And A Child Skipping Down The Street Is Simply An Untrained Dancer.

I Think Perhaps I've Learned To Be Myself. I Have A Theory That All Artists Who Would Be Important - Painters And Writers - Must Learn To Be Themselves. It Takes A Very Long Time.

The One Important Thing I Have Learned Over The Years Is The Difference Between Taking One's Work Seriously And Taking One's Self Seriously. The First Is Imperative And The Second Is Disastrous.

Generally Speaking, We Are All Happier When We Are Still Striving For Achievement Than When The Prize Is In Our Hands.
