More quotes by Isadora Duncan

Isadora Duncan
If I could tell you what it meant, there would be no point in dancing it
Isadora Duncan
Perhaps he was a bit different from other people, but what really sympathetic person is not a little mad?
Isadora Duncan
Virtuous people are simply those who have not been tempted sufficiently, because they live in a vegetative state, or because their purposes are so concentrated in one direction that they have not had the leisure to glance around them.
Isadora Duncan
Art is not necessary at all. All that is necessary to make this world a better place to live in is to love - to love as Christ loved, as Buddha loved.
Isadora Duncan
Anybody can and should dance... It's good for the body and the spirit.
Isadora Duncan
All my lovers have been geniuses it's the one thing that I insist.
Isadora Duncan

Isadora Duncan
You were once wild here. Don't let them tame you.
Isadora Duncan

Isadora Duncan
I had discovered that love might be a pastime as well as a tragedy, and I gave myself to it with pagan innocence.
Isadora Duncan
The butcher with his bloody apron incites bloodshed, murder. Why not? From cutting the throat of a young calf to cutting the throats of our brothers and sisters is but a step. While we ourselves are living graves of murdered animals, how can we expect any ideal conditions on the earth?
Isadora Duncan
For I was never able to understand, then or later on, why, if one wanted to do a thing, one should not do it. For I have never waited to do as I wished. This has frequently brought me to disaster and calamity, but at least I have had the the satisfaction of getting my own way.
Isadora Duncan
What one has not experienced, one will never understand in print.
Isadora Duncan
Movements are as eloquent as words.
Isadora Duncan
Memories are less tangible than dreams.
Isadora Duncan
