A quote that I use came from SYTYCD. "You are only as good as your last 8 count."
I am NOT too old for this!

I'd rather be Dreaming... in a tree.

I popped in here wondering if I should start a thread since there was this tremendous quote in Time magazine by Merce Cunningham, a dancer and choreographer who died this year. I think it's fate that there already is one, so now I have to post it, even if it's not quite about color guard.

"You have to love dancing to stick to it. It gives you nothing back, no manuscripts to store away, no paintings to show on walls and maybe hang in museums, no poems to be printed and sold, nothing but that single fleeting moment when you feel alive. It is not for unsteady souls."
"The conductor of an orchestra doesn't make a sound. He depends for his power on his ability to make other people powerful." - Benjamin Zander
