Famous quotes containing the words dance and/or contest:

    God be with the times when I
    Cared not a thraneen for what chanced
    So that I had the limbs to try
    Such a dance as there was danced—
    Love is like the lion’s tooth.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Weapons are an important factor in war, but not the decisive factor; it is people, not things, that are decisive. The contest of strength is not only a contest of military and economic power, but also a contest of human power and morale. Military and economic power is necessarily wielded by people.
    Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
