Twyla Tharp

I often say that in making dances I can make a world where I think things are done morally, done democratically, done honestly.

Dance is the most fundamental of all art forms.

'The Creative Habit' is basically about how you work alone, how you survive as a solitary artist. 'The Collaborative Habit' is obviously about surviving with other people.

All true language is incomprehensible, like the chatter of a beggar's teeth.

I wanted to be a male ballet dancer.

Twice a week I would receive injections or IV's of Factor VIII which clotted the blood and then broke it down.
