Quote by Gwenn Wright

“All I know is that the fear I have been battling all night is breaking down the door of my ignorance. As my feet slam down I feel not the hard, wet asphalt but the soft Persian rug that led to the staircase in my father’s home. In the glow of lightning the dancing trees are illuminated but I see my mother in the glow of candlelight, spinning, twirling, her hair fanned out behind her. It is falling over me, saturating my thoughts, and I cannot. I cannot let it in.”

“...I was reminded of the legendary choreographer and dancer Agnes de Mille, who said: "To dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful. This is power, it is glory on earth, and it is yours for the taking." Dance your way to presence. Seize the large, beautiful, powerful parts of yourself--the ones you love and believe. They are, indeed, yours for the taking.”
