More From Martha Graham

It is true to say that for me sanctity consists in being myself and for you sanctity consists of being yourself and that, in the last analysis, your sanctity will never be mine and mine will never be yours, except in the communism of charity and grace. for me to be a saint means to be myself. therefore the problem of sanctity and salvation is in fact the problem of finding out who i am and of discovering my true self.
