Timeless in their wisdom, thought-provoking in their message, surprising in their truth and memorable in their originality, the right words can give direction, inspiration, and sometimes a tangible boost onto the right path. For example, Steve Jobs once read "Stay hungry Stay foolish" on the back cover of The Whole Earth Catalog, and those four words came to guide his life.


Created by Kathryn and Ross Petras, connoisseurs of quotes, whose books and calendars have over 56 million copies in print, "Dance First. Think Later." is a collection of the greatest life wisdom from an unexpected group of speakers, doers, and thinkers. 


There are 618 rules to live by-funny, sly, declarative, thoughtful, offhanded, clever, and always profound:

"What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight; build it anyway." -Mother Teresa


And: "Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken."-Oscar Wilde

A review of the significant decisions of other jurisdictions in the years following Crownover reveals that the majority in Crownover failed to anticipate future developments in the law in several respects. Crownover's discussion of LaRue, and its failure to recognize the constitutional significance of LaRue's distinction between places which serve alcohol and those which do not, have proven to be plainly erroneous. Both Crownover's alternative holdings that nudity in dance is conduct and, as such, beyond the scope of First Amendment protection, or that public opposition to nude entertainment generates a substantial state interest in its suppression, also crumble under the force of later decisions.

In Schad, the high court considered a contention similar to that of the county, noting "Mount Ephraim ... speculates that the Borough may have concluded that live nude dancing is undesirable." (452 U.S. at p. 73, fn. 15 [68 L.Ed.2d at p. 683].) Distinguishing California v. LaRue, supra, 409 U.S. 109, the court explained that such "speculation lends no support to the challenged ordinance. First, [the regulation] excludes all live entertainment, not just live nude dancing. Even if Mount Ephraim might validly place restrictions on certain forms of live nude dancing under a narrowly drawn ordinance, this would not justify the exclusion of all live entertainment or, insofar as this record reveals, even the nude dancing involved in this case. Second, the regulation challenged in California v. LaRue was adopted only after the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control had determined that significant problems were linked to the activity that was later regulated. Third, in California v. LaRue the Court relied heavily on the State's power under the Twenty-first Amendment. Cf. Doran v. Salem Inn, Inc., 422 U.S. 922 [95 S. Ct. 2561, 45 L. Ed. 2d 648] (1975)." (452 U.S. at pp. 73-74, fn. 15 [68 L.Ed.2d at p. 683]; italics added.)

The conclusion that moral objections are not sufficient to bar otherwise protected activities is confirmed by Erznoznik v. City of Jacksonville, supra, 422 U.S. 205, in which the Supreme Court explicitly considered the weight of moral objections in a context similar to the present case. There, it rejected the argument that a statute barring drive-in theaters from showing movies "in which the human male or female buttocks, human female bare breasts, or human bare pubic areas are shown ...." (Id., at p. 207 [45 L.Ed.2d at p. 129]) was justified by the city's interest in protecting its citizens from "unwilling exposure to materials that may be offensive" (id., at p. 208 [45 L.Ed.2d at p. 130]) and in protecting the morals of children, who were allegedly watching these outdoor performances. As to the first rationale, the court noted that while "[m]uch that we encounter offends our esthetic, if not our political and moral, sensibilities," (id., at p. 210 [45 L.Ed.2d at p. 131]) "when the government, acting as censor, undertakes selectively to shield the public from some kinds of speech on the ground that they are more offensive than others, the First Amendment strictly limits its power." (Id., at p. 209 [45 L.Ed.2d at p. 131]; see also, Salem Inn, Inc. v. Frank, supra, 522 F.2d at p. 1049.) As to the city's other rationale, the protection of children, the court notes, "Speech that is neither obscene as to youths nor subject to some other legitimate proscription cannot be suppressed solely to protect the young from ideas or images that a legislative body thinks unsuitable for them." (Erznoznik, supra, 422 U.S. at pp. 213-214 [45 L.Ed.2d at p. 133].) The weight given to the county's moral objections in this case can certainly be no greater than in Erznoznik, since in the present case there is no allegation that children or unwilling victims have been subjected to nude dancing.

Justice Sullivan, in writing for our court in Crownover, made the following cogent observations which retain their essential validity today: "It is clear that these provisions of the ordinances are directed at conduct -- topless and bottomless exposure -- and not at speech or at conduct which is 'in essence' speech or 'closely akin to speech.' A common sense construction [citation] of the pertinent provisions is that they proscribe nudity in specified public places. They do not prohibit entertainment but merely enjoin that if the entertainer or performer offers it, he or she must have some clothes on. In a word the ordinances regulate conduct. [] Is such conduct symbolic in the constitutional sense? Is this nudity in bars and other specified places open to the public so inherently communicative by nature as to call for the protection given the 'interchange of ideas .... [] [all] ideas having even the slightest redeeming social importance' [citation]? The questions seem to provide their own negative answers. Unless we wish to blind ourselves to what is happening in big cities with their 'topless' and 'bottomless' bars and 'nude live acts' in a tawdry atmosphere that blights the neighborhood if not the entire community, it is common knowledge that such conduct is nothing more than a sales gimmick. It is delusive to speculate in the face of these realities that the entertainment in this milieu will acquire protectible communicative properties by exposure of the genitals, pubic area or female breasts of the performers. Assuming arguendo that there may ensue in instances an expression which is communicative in the constitutional sense, we do not think it is unreasonable to regulate the form or manner of the communication." (Pp. 425-426, italics in original.)

Nor is Schad v. Mount Ephraim (1981) 452 U.S. 61 [68 L. Ed. 2d 671, 101 S. Ct. 2176], in point. In Schad, the court struck down a purported "zoning" measure which would have excluded all commercial live entertainment in borough limits, including nude dancing. The court observed that Mount Ephraim had failed to justify adequately "its substantial restriction of protected activity." (P. 72 [68 L.Ed.2d p. 682], fn. omitted.) Rather than decide the precise extent to which nude dancing might share such protection, the court merely stated that "Whatever First Amendment protection should be extended to nude dancing, live or on film, however, the Mount Ephraim ordinance prohibits all live entertainment in the borough: no property ... may be principally used for the commercial production of plays, concerts, musicals, dance or any other form of live entertainment." (P. 66 [68 L.Ed.2d p. 679], fn. omitted, italics added.)

MARTIN And it came out years later, many years later, I think after we graduated, that he was having a sexual relationship with his roommate, that roommate, the whole year, right under the noses of the all-male dorm. And he, you know, is now an out gay man, but the guy he was having the affair with swore him to secrecy, and I think there was some sort of emotional abuse in that relationship.

TODAY WAS THE happiest day of my life so far, even though it didn't include actual sex or the World Series, and even though as usual people are suffering in places famous for trouble and also of course in every other place. I live with my parents--to save money--although as my mother puts it I am a grown man. I just filled my parents' dishwasher after dinner, wondering as I turned it on whether it really was the happiest day--because other days had more potential--but it was. I think that until today the happiest day was the day I went camping with my first girlfriend and we saw two deer and swam nude and made love on top of the sleeping bag, near the fire. Earlier happy days mostly included home runs. Dinner tonight was only meat loaf. Lunch was pizza. The happy part was in between.

IT INTERESTS ME to work in someone's house, but it's easier when the house is empty. Sometimes John gets contracts to renovate houses that are being made into residences for retarded people or some other group. There are special requirements--extra fire exits. wheelchair accessibility. Just now John and I are renovating a house where psychiatric patients will live. We have to put in two complete bathrooms. Today John said we could quit early because he had to go to the dentist. An old filling had been bothering him. "What do you think?" he's been asking me. "Will he drill again?"

Ida broke the remaining bread in half as we left the FedEx office, and we ate it. Even without butter, it was excellent. She paused as we reached the sidewalk, wiping her mouth, then brushing crumbs off her front. Instead of saying good-bye, I asked her about Ezra Pound, and we thumbed through the anthology. "The first Canto, I guess," she said. "What made you think of Pound?" 2351a5e196
