Sleeping is no mean art: for its sake one must stay awake all day.

It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.

I think dance is amazing because what people don't realize is like when you dance your spirit and your soul get ignited. You're not only releasing endorphins but also your spirit is awakening. It makes you feel good and happy.

However anyone to whom this happens should not leave his room upon awakening should speak to no-one but remain alone and sober until everything comes back to him and he recalls the dream.

The young people have MTV and rock and roll. Why would they go to read poetry? Poetry belongs to the Stone Age. It awakens in us perceptions that go back to those times.

You can have a spiritual awakening and discover a new side of you at any age. And best of all love can happen at any age. Life can just start to get exciting when you're in your 40s and 50s. You have to believe that.
