More quotes by Isadora Duncan
I do not teach children, I give them joy.
Isadora Duncan
To dance is to live. What I want is a school of life.
Isadora Duncan
With what price we pay for the glory of motherhood.
Isadora Duncan
Dance is the movement of the universe concentrated in an individual.
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
Most human beings today waste some 25 to 30 years of their lives before they break through the actual and conventional lies which surround them.
Isadora Duncan
Anybody can and should dance... It's good for the body and the spirit.
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
I would rather live in Russia on black bread and vodka than in the United States at the best hotels. America knows nothing of food, love or art.
Isadora Duncan
The dancer of the future will be one whose body & soul have grown so harmoniously together that the natural language of the soul will have become the movement of the body.
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
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
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
The first essential in writing about anything is that the writer should have no experience of the matter.
Isadora Duncan
The dancer's body is simply the luminous manifestation of the soul.
Isadora Duncan
Movements are as eloquent as words.
Isadora Duncan
These people seemed so enwrapped in snobbishness and the glory of being rich that they had no art sense whatever.
Isadora Duncan
