More quotes by Tatsumi Hijikata
When one considers the body in relation to dance, it is then that one truly realizes what suffering is: it is a part of our lives. No matter how much we search for it from the outside there is no way we can find it without delving into ourselves.
Tatsumi Hijikata
Western dance begins with its feet firmly planted on the ground whereas Butoh begins with a dance wherein the dancer tries in vain to find his feet
Tatsumi Hijikata
There are as many types of Butoh as there are Butoh choreographers.
Tatsumi Hijikata
The dance of darkness must spout blood into the air, in the name of the experience of evil
