Famous quotes containing the words lap and/or dancing:
“Here rests his head upon the lap of Earth
A Youth to Fortune and to Fame unknown,

And Melancholy mark’d him for her own.”

““Do you like being a parent—you know, being a father, having children and all?” Linnet once asked me. “Yes,” I said, after a moment. “It’s like dancing with a partner. It takes a lot of effort to do it well. But when it’s done well it’s a beautiful thing to see.””
—Gerald Early (20th century)
