Famous quotes containing the words dance and/or theater:
“When I play on my fiddle in Dooney,
Folk dance like a wave of the sea....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“We all know that the theater and every play that comes to Broadway have within themselves, like the human being, the seed of self-destruction and the certainty of death. The thing is to see how long the theater, the play, and the human being can last in spite of themselves.”
—James Thurber (1894–1961)
