"Growing up is inevitable. Growing up is optional." ~ Unknown......"Ask yourself...Who am I? And after you know who you are, ask yourself, what am I here for? And then, ask yourself, am I accomplishing what I was put here to do? If not, why not?" ~ Katherine Dunham......"The whole universe is the stage on which your mind dances, with your body, guided by your heart." ~ Unknown....."It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge." ~ Albert Einsten........ "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?...Your playing small doesn't serve the world. We were born to make manifest...the glory within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." ~ Marianne Williamson.........."The truest expression of a people is in its dances and its music." ~ Agnes De Mille................"The only sin is mediocrity." ~ Martha Graham......."Be the change you wish to see in the world." ~ Gandhi............."Dance like no one is watching. Sing like no one is listening. Love like you've never been hurt before. Live like heaven begins tomorrow." ~ Unknown................"The arts must be at the heart of every child's learning experience if they are to have a chance to dream, and to create, to have beliefs, to carry a sense of cultural identity." ~ James D. Wolfensohn................."There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. If you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not yours to determine how good it is; nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is ever pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction; a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others." ~ Martha Graham........................"The most visible creators I know of are those artists whose medium is life itself. The ones who express the inexpressible - without brush, hammer, clay or guitar. They neither paint not sculpt - their medium is being. Whatever their presence touches has increased life. They see and don't have to draw. They are the artists of being alive." ~ Unknown........................"Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart." ~ Unknown......................"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined." ~ Thoreau.................."If you have the theatre, you don't need a church." ~ Stella Adler................."If you asked me what I came into this world to do, I will tell you: I came to live out loud." ~ Emile Zola................"To be good is to be in harmony with oneself." ~ Oscar Wilde.........
