I found this quote, and I had to share it. I love it.
"The Dancer believes that his art has something to say which cannot be expressed in words or in any other way than by dancing... there are times when the simple dignity of movement can fulfill the function of a volume of words. There are movements which impinge upon the nerves with a strength that is incomparable, for movement has power to stir the senses and emotions, unique in itself. This is the dancer's justification for being, and his reason for searching further for deeper aspects of his art." ~Doris Humphrey, 1937

:) Nice! Dancing, it's a thing that goes back to neolithic times, it is expression in a pure and universal form. It cannot be mistranslated, it can only be enjoyed.
Which brings me to another point. I really detest people who look at people busting on the dancefloor and do that roll-eye-thing like their pretending that they aren't jealous. You probably get that a lot from boyfriends, Brandon, you know what I mean.
All the best musicians are great dancers too. I mean, just look at Cedric Bixler Zavala.
Yes, Alycia I do. There's usually one person in each couple that understands dancing. And women get mad and jelous too. Don't know why. Maybe it's because their man can never move like me. And they prolly suck in bed.
I wish I could dance, but every time I dance I feel like people might look at me and I get uncomfortable. There is a solution to this, but it involves me getting incredibly drunk or high on drugs. This makes me dance, but in a way that doesn't look very nice.
