Famous quotes containing the word dancers:
“I have forgiven all the old actors for dying.
A new one comes on with the same lines,
like large white growths, in his mouth.
The dancers come on from the wings,
perfectly mated.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“Look. And the dancers move
On the departed, snow bushed green, wanton in moon light
As a dust of pigeons. Exulting, the grave hooved
Horses, centaur dead, turn and tread the drenched white
Paddocks in the farms of birds. The dead oak walks for love.”
—Dylan Thomas (19141953)
“Proclaiming what choices there are
For the last dancers of their kind,
For ill women and for all slaves
Of death,”
—James Dickey (b. 1923)
