I Have Lived So Long Because In

I Believe That My Whole Creative Life Stemmed From This Magic Hour Under The Stars On That Hilltop.

It Was Then That My Religious Consciousness Emerged To Flower Years Afterward Into Definite Forms Of Religious Dancing In Which There Is No Sense Of Division Between Spirit And Flesh, Religion And Art.

It Is Not A Question Of Who Dances But Of Who Or What Does Not Dance.

It Is This Mission Of The Dancer To Contribute To The Betterment Of All Mankind.

I Have Lived So Long Because In Those Moments When I Am Dancing, I Am Beyond Time And Space.
