A Quote by Mira Grant

The Argentine tango isn't here to play nicely with the other children. The Argentine tango is here to seduce your women, spill things on your rug, and sneak out your bedroom window in the middle of the night.

I think those who say that you can't tango if you are not Argentine are mistaken. Tango was an immigrant music... so it does not have a nationality. It's only passport is feeling.

Carlos Gavito

The traditional tango is really staccato, but with the Argentine tango, you have to be really sexy and saucy.

Victoria Arlen

I've always wanted to learn the Argentine tango.

Jodie Sweetin

I'm a bad walker but I can dance tango. You know why? Put your hand up. Push on my fingertips and just hold it. In tango, your feet are free but the top of your body pushes, so if I feel like I'm gonna fall, my partner can catch me. So I walk with a stick but I can totally dance the tango. It's a romantic kind of thing.

Melody Gardot

I love ballroom dance, my favorite style being the Argentine Tango.

Shirley Ballas

I haven't tried my favorite dance - the Argentine tango - with Vernon yet. I'm sure there would be a lot of toe stamping going on!

Tess Daly

I think we're going to have to accept the fact the U.S. is off the world map. We are not a great player any longer. And when we come home - as we will have to do because we've run out of money - we will discover that Argentine debts means Argentine politics. And on that note, you can wake up in the middle of the night.

Gore Vidal

The Argentine tango is very special to me because it's full of sensuality. The chemistry between the man and woman is absolutely stunning.

Gilles Marini

Jorge Luis Borges was lamenting a variety of Orientalism that was used to measure the alleged authenticity of Argentine and Latin American writers in the midcentury. The Argentine literary tradition was believed by many, including many Argentines, to be concerned with a national imaginary in which the gauchos and the pampas and the tango were fundamental tropes. Borges, in part to legitimize his own Europhilia, correctly pointed out that expecting writers to engage with these romantic nationalist tropes was arbitrary and limiting, a genre that was demonstrative of its own artificiality.

Adam Morris

I tried to play Piazzolla's 'Grand Tango' at 20 and failed miserably. You need a little experience of life for tango.

Jan Vogler

I've never stopped being Argentine, and I've never wanted to. I feel very proud of being Argentine, even though I left there. I've been clear about this since I was very young, and I never wanted to change. Barcelona is my home because both the club and the people here have given me everything, but I won't stop being Argentine.

Lionel Messi

I still can't believe that some pseudocritics continue to accuse me of having murdered tango. They have it backward. They should look at me as the saviour of tango. I performed plastic surgery on it.

Astor Piazzolla

Going to your set with the headphones on in the middle of the night so that your parents don't know what you're doing when you're supposed to be asleep is great. I was rocking the bedroom. That was so much more fun when I got the 1200s.

Jam Master Jay

My baby she'll take a chance, my baby got a brand new dance, Wango Tango, Wango Tango.

Ted Nugent

Tango is about feeling and sensitivity, otherwise you are just doing gymnastics. You can do all the steps but it has to have the feeling and sensitivity of authentic tango.
