Famous quotes containing the word dancers:

    “The dancers crowded about him
    And many a sweet thing said,
    And a young man brought him red wine
    And a young girl white bread.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “I have forgiven all the old actors for dying.
    A new one comes on with the same lines,
    like large white growths, in his mouth.
    The dancers come on from the wings,
    perfectly mated.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Look. And the dancers move
    On the departed, snow bushed green, wanton in moon light
    As a dust of pigeons. Exulting, the grave hooved
    Horses, centaur dead, turn and tread the drenched white
    Paddocks in the farms of birds. The dead oak walks for love.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
