Isadora Duncan Dance

Famous quotes containing the words isadora duncan, duncan and/or dance:

    The real American type can never be a ballet dancer. The legs are too long, the body too supple and the spirit too free for this school of affected grace and toe walking.

    The world like Great Sodom lies under Love
    and knows not the hand of the Lord that moves.
    —Robert Duncan (b. 1919)

    We look at the dance to impart the sensation of living in an affirmation of life, to energize the spectator into keener awareness of the vigor, the mystery, the humor, the variety, and the wonder of life. This is the function of the American dance.
    Martha Graham (1894–1991)
