Famous quotes containing the word dance:

    “If I’m on skates, I feel at home no matter what I’m doing. If they wanted me to sing and dance I think I could do it just because I was on skates. When I’m not on skates, though, I feel very strange.”
    —Dorothy Hamill (b. 1956)

    “No imperfection in budded mountain,
    Valleys breathe, heaven and earth move together,
    daisies push inches of yellow air, vegetables tremble,
    green atoms shimmer in grassy mandalas,
    sheep speckle the mountainside, revolving their jaws with empty eyes,
    horses dance in the warm rain,”
    —Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)

    “It is no doubt possible to fly—but first you must know how to dance like an angel.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
