The whole world is absolutely brought up on lies. We are fed nothing but lies. It begins with lies and half our lives we live with lies.

More quotes by Isadora Duncan
If I could explain, I wouldn't need to dance!
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
Memories are less tangible than dreams.
Isadora Duncan
Movements are as eloquent as words.
Isadora Duncan
Master technique, so that technique NEVER prevents you from dancing.
Isadora Duncan
I finally discovered the source of all movement, the unity from which all diversities of movement are born.
Isadora Duncan
The finest inheritance you can give to a child is to allow it to make its own way, completely on its own feet.
Isadora Duncan
What one has not experienced, one will never understand in print.
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
Any woman or man who would write the truth of their lives would write a great work. But no one has dared to write the truth of their lives.
Isadora Duncan
I have discovered the dance. I have discovered the art which has been lost for two thousand years
Isadora Duncan
No composer has yet caught this rhythm of America - it is too mighty for the ears of most.
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
Before I was born my mother was in great agony of spirit and in a tragic situation. She could take no food except iced oysters and champagne. If people ask me when I began to dance, I reply 'In my mother's womb, probably as a result of the oysters and Champagne.'
Isadora Duncan
These people seemed so enwrapped in snobbishness and the glory of being rich that they had no art sense whatever.
Isadora Duncan
All my lovers have been geniuses it's the one thing that I insist.
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
You were once wild here. Don't let them tame you.
Isadora Duncan
Others loved themselves, money, theories, power: Lenin loved his fellow men.... Lenin was God, as Christ was God, because God is Love and Christ and Lenin were all Love!
Isadora Duncan
If I could tell you what it meant, there would be no point in dancing it
Isadora Duncan
