Famous quotes containing the words dance music, hot, dance and/or music:
“The author’s conviction on this day of New Year is that music begins to atrophy when it departs too far from the dance; that poetry begins to atrophy when it gets too far from music; but this must not be taken as implying that all good music is dance music or all poetry lyric. Bach and Mozart are never too far from physical movement.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

That thou hast power to shake my manhood thus,
That these hot tears, which break from me perforce,
Should make thee worth them.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The only dance masters I could have were Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Walt Whitman and Nietzsche.”
—Isadora Duncan (1878–1927)
“Hell is full of musical amateurs: music is the brandy of the damned.”
