Famous quotes containing the words dance and/or song:

    “The dance can reveal everything mysterious that is hidden in music, and it has the additional merit of being human and palpable. Dancing is poetry with arms and legs.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “but you are not deaf,
    you pick out
    your own song from the uproar
    line by line,
    and at last throw back
    your head and sing it.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
