Famous quotes containing the word dance:

“a dance sacred as the sap in
the trees,”
—Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)

“Lady Dynamite, let’s dance quickly,
Let’s dance and sing and dynamite everything!”
—French anarchist song of the 1880s.

“The author’s conviction on this day of New Year is that music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance; that poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music; but this must not be taken as implying that all good music is dance music or all poetry lyric. Bach and Mozart are never too far from physical movement.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
