Quote by Olaotan Fawehinmi

“The 'Dance of Love' is much more of a dialogue, one takes the lead and the other follows. One dictates a step and the other carries it out. One determines the direction, the other determines the distance travelled in a given figure. One sets the pace, the other reveals the grace. One understands the language of the other and knows what is coming next. The one leading leads with love and respect; never seeing the follower as being weak or inferior. And in the same manner, the one following follows with Trust and Submission; never feeling too big to be led or scared to jump. There is a blind assurance that someone is there to catch.”

“ഉത്സവം കഴിഞ്ഞു ഒന്നിച്ചു നൃത്തം ചവിട്ടിയവര്‍ അവരവരുടെ കൂടാരങ്ങളിലെയ്ക ­്ക് മടങ്ങി. മഞ്ഞുപെയ്യുന്ന ഈ രാവില്‍, മുനിഞ്ഞു കത്തുന്ന വിളക്കുമരത്തിനു ­ താഴെ ഒരാള്‍ തനിച്ചാവുന്നു. പിന്നീടാണ്‌ ക്രിസ്തു വന്നത്. അവസാനത്തെ ചങ്ങാതിയും പടിയിറങ്ങുമ്പോള ­്‍ ആരുമറിയാതെ ഉള്ളിലേക്കെത്തു ­ന്ന സുഹൃത്ത്‌. കുന്തിരിക്കത്തി ­ന്റെ ഗന്ധത്തില്‍ നിന്ന് നമുക്കീ തച്ചന്റെ വിയര്‍പ്പിലേക്ക ­് മടങ്ങാം.”

“Those are big collisions, Hally. They make for a lot of bruises. People get hurt in all that bumping, and we're sick and tired of it now. It's been going on for too long. Are we never going to get it right?...Learn to dance life like champions instead of always being just a bunch of beginners at it?”

“The 'dance of love' has different themes and moods, just like every relationship has its highs and lows. Enjoy the high moments and hang-on during the downtimes. The diverse range of emotions is the experience that builds you two. Your ability to perfectly switch between these moments and make the best out of the one you find yourself per time, proves that you are not only involved in the relationship like the chicken is in the business of making eggs but also very committed to it like the pig is in the business of making bacon.”
