Dance Aspirations

As long as we aspire to be better than what we are, breathing in and lifting our heads high, philosophers are pleased.
When ambition comes in, the dirty desire to be better than our fellows comes in, ringed round by the fear we might be worse, followed by the knowledge that we will be worse as we age.
I don't think I want to see "Black Swan": Natalie Portman having starved herself thin enough and tortured her feet in pointe, portraying the nightmare life of a ballerina.
