Famous quotes containing the words dance and/or works:

    Harvey: You’re a hell of a lot younger than I am. And you’re a dancer.
    Gillian: I’m a singer.
    Harvey: Well, you dance around when you sing.
    Blake Edwards (b. 1922)

    The slightest living thing answers a deeper need than all the works of man because it is transitory. It has an evanescence of life, or growth, or change: it passes, as we do, from one stage to the another, from darkness to darkness, into a distance where we, too, vanish out of sight. A work of art is static; and its value and its weakness lie in being so: but the tuft of grass and the clouds above it belong to our own travelling brotherhood.
    Freya Stark (b. 1893–1993)
