Music and dancing, a page devoted to music in general and obviously to videos and dancing, with some quotes, history texts and links to the most popular artists.<\/span><\/p>\n

Music and dancing (the more the pity) have become so closely associated with ideas of riot and debauchery among the less cultivated classes, that a taste for them, for their own sakes, can hardly be said to exist, and before they can be recommended as innocent or safe amusements, a very great change of ideas must take place.<\/span>
\nSir John Herschel<\/span><\/p>\n

And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.<\/span>
\nFriedrich Nietzsche<\/span><\/p>\n

If music be the food of love, play on, Give me excess of it; that surfeiting, The appetite may sicken, and so die.<\/span>
\nWilliam Shakespeare<\/span><\/p>\n

Music is so naturally connected to us that, even if we want to, we cannot do without it.<\/span>
\nBoethius<\/span><\/p>\n

Music is a language that doesn\u2019t speak in particular words. It speaks in emotions, and if it\u2019s in the bones, it\u2019s in the bones.<\/span>
\nKeith Richards<\/span><\/p>\n

The most exciting rhythms seem unexpected and complex, the most beautiful melodies simple and inevitable.<\/span>
\nW.H. Auden<\/span><\/p>\n

Music is part of us, and it ennobles or degrades our behavior.<\/span>
\nBoethius<\/span><\/p>\n

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.<\/span>
\nAldous Huxley<\/span><\/p>\n

Music is like a dream. One that I cannot hear.<\/span>
\nLudwig van Beethoven<\/span><\/p>\n

If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.<\/span>
\nAlbert Einstein<\/span><\/p>\n

Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible.<\/span>
\nFrank Zappa<\/span><\/p>\n

You know the drum was the first instrument besides the human voice.<\/span>
\nBilly Higgins<\/span><\/p>\n

Only he who possesses the ability to penetrate the depths of his own soul can understand music.<\/span>
\nBoethius<\/span><\/p>\n

In all the music that deals with experimental repetition, drum and bass, dub, various kinds of house music, there’s always been a quality of atmosphere and ambience.<\/span>
\nBill Laswell<\/span><\/p>\n

To the solemn graves, near a lonely cemetery, my heart like a muffled drum is beating funeral marches.<\/span>
\nCharles Baudelaire<\/span><\/p>\n

I have a drum set in my dressing room. I play drums to relax and have some fun.<\/span>
\nQueen Latifah<\/span><\/p>\n
