Famous quotes by judith jamison:
“People come to see beauty, and I dance to give it to them.”
—Judith Jamison (b. 1944)
“I can’t really hear the audience applause when I’m on stage. I’m totally immersed in the piece. But sometimes I get a lot of it and wonder, ‘Now, why did they applaud here?’ If it’s a white crowd, they usually applaud because they think it’s a pretty movement. If it’s a black crowd, it’s usually because they identify with the message.”
—Judith Jamison (b. 1944)
