"Before our very eyes she turned to many coloured, shining orchids, to a wavering, flowing sea flower, and at length to a spiral-like lily, all the magic of Merlin, the sorcery of light, colour, flowing form.
What an extraordinary genius! No imitator of Loie Fuller has ever been able even to hint at her genius!...
I went every night to see Loie Fuller, from a box, and I was more and more enthusiastic about her marvelous ephemeral art.
That wonderful creature--she became fluid; she became light; she became every colour and flame, and finally she resolved into miraculous spirals of flames wafted toward the Infinite."
- Quote (scroll down to Chapter 10) from Isadora Duncan's "My Life" about Loie Fuller...
