The world is full of ways for people to dance. Concert dance doesn't get its due.

The world would be a better place if everyone learned to dance.

The universe lies before you on the floor, in the air, in the mysterious bodies of your dancers, in your mind. From this voyage no one returns poor or weary.

We've had nothing but support from everybody in the dance world for a National Dance Day.

When you're dancing, you're dancing for people to see.

Dance, to me, is an expression of who we are.

Dancing has been in us, in people, since the Neanderthal age. There's something about moving, something about interpreting yourself to the music, that's attractive, that's interesting, that's intriguing, and everyone wishes they could do that.

We're dancing from here, from inside, not from outside. You could look at anybody throwing their leg and kick their leg up and a million pirouettes and do all kinds of tricks and stuff like that. But that's not what dance is really about.

Dance is the only art of which we ourselves are the stuff of which it is made.

I've danced all over the world, and people are people. We cannot cut off from each other in life. In order to lead, you can't do that.
