As you get older, the physical abilities decrease, which is particularly frustrating because your brain gets so good! So as you are becoming less technically or physically able, younger dancers are emerging who need the space to perform.

A good dancer is an educated one, so don't abandon school.

I do take class because I still dance, and yes, I do slip into class with the Royal Ballet from time to time.

At the moment I'm enjoying a new challenge at the Royal Opera House, but I'm also keen to pursue my interest in television and particularly in science.

I think the shape of our bodies has as much to do with the shape of our parents as it does with training.

Because muscle is heavier than fat, dancers weigh more than you might think, but they are usually very lean.

I have lots of interests, but it's true that dancing is a very full-time job.

It's not about weight, it's about fitness, and one component of being fit is to have relatively low body fat, because fat is not very efficient, whereas muscle is.

You increase muscle bulk by training against resistance. For example, weights. And in ballet, this isn't the case.

Young dancers are training at a very vulnerable time in their lives, through adolescence, and while they are trying to work out who they are as people, never mind as a dancer. So train the whole person, not just the dancer.

I always recommend a sensible diet, including lots of carbohydrates and avoiding too much fat. Dancers don't need different fuel from other people - they just need more of it because they use more energy.

Dancing's not always stressful, but I always make sure that I'm prepared as I can be, both physically, mentally, and practically.

But you do have to start young as a dancer if you're going to achieve the physical skills necessary.

It's not magic! It's physics. The speed of the turn is what keeps you upright. It's like a spinning top.

I get to the theatre in plenty of time; I prepare my shoes in advance; I eat and drink the right things at the right time. The rest you have to leave to luck!

It's another myth that dancing distorts or destroys your feet. If you have the right shaped foot to start and a good, strong technique, your feet should be fine.

I think it's useful to experience other types of dance and other cultures, and the life of a classical dancer these days is certainly not all tutus! So experience of other dance forms is a good idea.

People often argue about this. Obviously one of the skills in performance is acting, and you can't expect every Romeo to really be in love with their Juliet!

I've always believed that the facts about dancing are more interesting than the myths, and this was a great chance for me to explore how the human body does such incredible things.

Body language is a very powerful tool. We had body language before we had speech, and apparently, 80% of what you understand in a conversation is read through the body, not the words.

Dancing is a tough career, but I'm glad I spent it at the Royal Ballet.

I don't have space to enter into the examples or the history of this, so I'm left with having to make the bold statement that culture is extinct.

Each atom of the Holy Spirit is intelligent, and like all other matter has solidity, form, and size, and occupies space.

During that space walk there will be some repositioning of the power so that the arm can be fully controlled by the robotic station that is in the Lab.

We are a communicating nation which needs access to space, access to the seas.

We must admit with humility that, while number is purely a product of our minds, space has a reality outside our minds, so that we cannot completely prescribe its properties a priori.

Because I've lived in one room my entire life, working at the same table that you use to pay bills at and eat at. It's going to be nice to have actual space.

On one hand, to be able to go from one direction in the sky to study such an object to another direction to study another object, and on the other hand to be able to maintain accurately the position in space.

I think the Space Shuttle is worth one billion dollars a launch. I think that it is worth two billion dollars for what it does. I think the Shuttle is worth it for the work it does.

And of course, I absolutely loved making Lost in Space as a kid.

The views of the Earth are really beautiful. If you've ever seen a space IMAX movie, that's really what it looks like. I wish I'd had more time just to sit and look out the window with a map, but our science program kept us very busy in the lab most of the time.

And so, in case we have contingencies and things that we cannot accomplish within the duration of the space walk, we have a buffer, I mean, in order to be able to complete the... what we want to accomplish.

In the film, I'm not very mobile, like in the space suit.

Nothing exists except atoms and empty space; everything else is opinion.

I think that somebody with the resources and innovation and the idea is going to come out of nowhere and come up with a successful space travel program.

But generally speaking, people weren't fired, art jobs were very hard to get, so something really calamitous had to happen to a person who was working there in order for you to find a space.

Creation is all space, all time - all things past, present, and future.

Cool things happen. Ace's guitar flies through space, goes through a hole, and blows up. I throw drumsticks and they come flying at you.

Firstly, people take for granted that the E.U. has created the biggest economic space in the world.

The novel is not so much a literary genre, but a literary space, like a sea that is filled by many rivers.

My place in Chicago is a 105 year old house, but I really like contemporary spaces too, so it's refreshing and fun to be in a space where you can do contemporary things.

Indeed, as the above calculation indicates, to take full advantage of the memory space available, the ultimate laptop must turn all its matter into energy.

Well, by the end of the millennium, five, six months from now, we hope to somehow manage to move into a new location where we have the whole building, so we can devote space to all our activities.

If we are able to get inside the music and inhabit it convincingly enough, it will cause everyone to find each other in this new psychological space. And that's most exciting.

In the United States there is more space where nobody is than where anybody is. That is what makes America what it is.

But it was great, we sit in the same dressing room where, like, Johnny Cash sat and Willie Nelson and all those guys. That was in itself something amazing - I was on the same space these guys stood on, ya know?
