Birmingham Royal Ballet/dancers

Famous quotes containing the words royal, ballet and/or dancers:

    Oh, I know my family’s not of royal blood, but you needn’t throw it in my face all the time.
    —Robert N. Lee. Rowland V. Lee. Queen Elyzabeth (sic)

    Anyone who has a child today should train him to be either a physicist or a ballet dancer. Then he’ll escape.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)

    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 (1914–1953)
