Famous quotes containing the words break and/or dancing:
“This conflict between the powers of love and chastity ... it ended apparently in the triumph of chastity. Love was suppressed, held in darkness and chains, by fear, conventionality, aversion, or a tremulous yearning to be pure.... But this triumph of chastity was only an apparent, a pyrrhic victory. It would break through the ban of chastity, it would emergeif in a form so altered as to be unrecognizable.”
—Thomas Mann (18751955)
“I avoid talking before the youth of the age as I would dancing before them: for if ones tongue dont move in the steps of the day, and thinks to please by its old graces, it is only an object of ridicule.”
—Horace Walpole (17171797)
