Dancing Masters Association

Famous quotes containing the words dancing, masters and/or association:

    “It may be possible to do without dancing entirely. Instances have been known of young people passing many, many months successively, without being at any ball of any description, and no material injury accrue either to body or mind; Mbut when a beginning is made—when felicities of rapid motion have once been, though slightly, felt—it must be a very heavy set that does not ask for more.”
    —Jane Austen (1775–1817)

    “Ballades by the score with the same old thought:
    The snows and the roses of yesterday are vanished;
    And what is love but a rose that fades?”
    —Edgar Lee Masters (1869–1950)

    “The aim of every political association is the preservation of the natural and imprescriptible rights of man. These rights are liberty, property, security and resistance to oppression.”
    —French National Assembly. Declaration of the Rights of Man (drafted and discussed August 1789, published September 1791)
