Gentleman Dancing Master

Famous quotes containing the words gentleman, dancing and/or master:

    If the aristocrat is only valid in fashionable circles, and not with truckmen, he will never be a leader in fashion; and if the man of the people cannot speak on equal terms with the gentleman, so that the gentleman shall perceive that he is already really of his own order, he is not to be feared.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    What was dancing to you then?
    We went from the high gate away
    To a black hill the other side of men
    Where one wild stag stared
    At the going day.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Nothing can be done about it: every master has but a single pupil—and he will not stay loyal to him—for he is also destined to become a master.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
