Notes

Early Christians practised dance[1], but it was later discouraged and removed encouraged, but authorities continually tried to ban it because it interfered with worship.[2]

Dance, when you're broken up. Dance, if you've torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of the fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance, when you're perfectly free. -- rumi --
