Dancing Quotes

What do people have to say about dancing? Let's find out! Here are some quotes from people from all occupations: writers, singers and more.

To everything there is a season,

and a time to every purpose under heaven:

A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant,

and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down,

and a time to build up;

A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn,

and a time to dance.

--The Bible
