Dancing Masters Association

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

    “We have dancing ... from soon after sundown until a few minutes after nine o’clock.... Occasionally the boys who play the female partners in the dances exercise their ingenuity in dressing to look as girlish as possible. In the absence of lady duds they use leaves, and the leaf-clad beauties often look very pretty and always odd enough.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “I am Anne Rutledge who sleep beneath these weeds,
    Beloved in life of Abraham Lincoln,
    Wedded to him, not through union,
    But through separation”
    —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)
