"A broad margin of leisure is as beautiful in a man's life as in a book. Haste makes waste, no less in life than in housekeeping. Keep the time, observe the hours of the universe, not of the cars."

"Sometimes I feel like if you just watch things, just sit still and let the world exist in front of you - sometimes I swear that just for a second time freezes and the world pauses in its tilt. Just for a second. And if you somehow found a way to live in that second, then you would live forever."

"I think it's useful to experience other types of dance and other cultures, and the life of a classical dancer these days is certainly not all tutus! So experience of other dance forms is a good idea."
Experience
"I do take class because I still dance, and yes, I do slip into class with the Royal Ballet from time to time."

"I think the shape of our bodies has as much to do with the shape of our parents as it does with training."
Parents
"It's not magic! It's physics. The speed of the turn is what keeps you upright. It's like a spinning top."
Physics
"I always recommend a sensible diet, including lots of carbohydrates and avoiding too much fat. Dancers don't need different fuel from other people - they just need more of it because they use more energy."
Diet
"Body language is a very powerful tool. We had body language before we had speech, and apparently, 80% of what you understand in a conversation is read through the body, not the words."
Body
"You increase muscle bulk by training against resistance. For example, weights. And in ballet, this isn't the case."
Ballet
"A good dancer is an educated one, so don't abandon school."
School
"I get to the theatre in plenty of time; I prepare my shoes in advance; I eat and drink the right things at the right time. The rest you have to leave to luck!"
