dance for life (quotes on dance)

"Dancers aren't made of their technique, but their passion."

"Dancing with the feet is one thing, but dancing with the heart is another."

"The Dancer believes that his art has something to say which cannot be expressed in words or in any other way than by dancing... there are times when the simple dignity of movement can fulfill the function of a volume of words. There are movements which impinge upon the nerves with a strength that is incomparable, for movement has power to stir the senses and emotions, unique in itself. This is the dancer's justification for being, and his reason for searching further for deeper aspects of his art."
~Doris Humphrey, 1937

"I see dance being used as communication between body and soul, to express what it too deep to find for words."
~Ruth St. Denis

"Dance isn't a form it's a way of life."

"Anyone who thinks sunshine is happiness has never danced in the rain."

"To watch us dance is to hear our hearts speak."

"Common sense and a sense of humor are the same thing, moving at different speeds. A sense of humor is just common sense, dancing. "
~William James
