Sylvie Guillem

There are some ballets you can do for a long time. With others, you have to know when to stop. Some are very destructive. Forsythe’s choreography pushes dancers to the extreme. That’s why it’s best to vary. That way, you break your body a little bit in different places, but not a lot in one place.

– Sylvie Guillem

Suzanne Farrell

I like dramatic ballets, particularly if they’re ballets in which I have a chance to go from one extreme of style or characterization to another.

– Suzanne Farrell

Shakin' Stevens

I remember my dreams when I was a junior soloist. ‘Oh, I hope I don’t end here,’ I thought. ‘I want to do the ballerina in ‘Scotch Symphony.’ I don’t want to be the little Scotch girl.’ And I actually went beyond my wildest dreams. I worked with Balanchine. I had ballets choreographed for me.

Patricia McBride

Mr. Balanchine wanted me to be myself. He didn’t want me to look like anyone else. I love teaching our company dancers the Balanchine ballets. I try to give them what was passed down to me and what I learned from him. They dance it so beautifully. It also keeps me close to Mr. Balanchine. He’s with me every single day.

– Patricia McBride

Patricia McBride

I cherish the ballets made for myself by Mr. Balanchine. He never lost his temper. He was quiet, humble, the genius of the 20th century.

– Patricia McBride

Patricia McBride

When you dance, it takes a lot of stamina, but it never seemed like work ’cause I was doing something that I so loved doing. It was always a joy. And you know, to have beautiful ballets made specially for you is such an honor. I always said it was better than diamonds.

– Patricia McBride

I remember that my mother used to take me to see ballets, especially if there were black people in them.
