"The dance is a poem of which each movement is a word."

"Men are all the same. They want beauty, pleasure, and a woman who knows how to keep them entertained."

"I have lived for pleasure, and I will die with courage."

"The more I dance, the more I feel myself. It is my true language."

"My only crime is to have been born beautiful and to have used my beauty to live my life as I wished."
