Famous quotes containing the words dance and/or works:
“Harvey: Youre a hell of a lot younger than I am. And youre a dancer.
Gillian: Im 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. 18931993)
