Language Performance

Famous quotes containing the words language and/or performance:

“They who in folly or mere greed
Enslaved religion, markets, laws,
Borrow our language now and bid
Us to speak up in freedom’s cause.”

But her performance keeps no day;
Breaks time, as dancers,
From their own music when they stray.”
