However, the moral center of New York City, I believe, is the New York City Ballet.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The New York City Ballet is always about the realm of possibilities, the realm of what the human body can do, what the human spirit can do. And it's about listening, it's about listening to remarkable music and how we respond to that.
Does the New York City Ballet affect other places? Yeah, it lets people know they should come to New York.
The life of a dancer is tragically short. What is remarkable about the New York City Ballet is that it makes us forget that. Because it keeps the ballet alive.
New York is the dream world, the center of jazz and rock.
I think that every year that the New York City Ballet is alive is worthy of celebration. Because otherwise the terrible thing is just that we take it for granted.
New York feels like the whole city is into dance music. That's not how it felt when I was younger. There was more of a hipster scene.
I think of the New York City Ballet as the Yankees without George Steinbrenner.
I traveled so much to dance that I feel a part of many places, but New York is where I spent most of my life and where my career has been - it's the place where I exist.
All the New York City Ballet does is hit beautiful home runs.
I think that New York is not the cultural centre of America, but the business and administrative centre of American culture.
