“Though I've long thought I could hold back time through dance and creativity, I know that one day life will catch up with me. I won't last forever, I know. One day, I too will haunt this place, dancing like a dust devil in the wind.”
Marta Becket, To Dance on Sands: The Life And Art of Death Valley's Marta Becket

“When I ache, when I'm tired or just lonely living in the town on my own, I know I have to keep on going. I walk into my theater and see my stage which still calls out to me and pleads with me, "Use me. Create for me." It's there ready to offer itself for more creatively [sic]. It is up to me to use it again. My theater says to me, "Take me. Do something with me. I'm ready for the challenge. Give me something to live for; something to look forward to.”
