...there is a celebrated aphorism insisting that the best way to live is to 'work like you don't need the money, dance like nobody is watching, and love like you've never been hurt.'...After years of hearing and reading these lines I have decided to tell the truth: the original version is wrong. There is a grave error in the wording of this adage. The correct version should go as follows: Love like you don't need the money, Work like nobody is watching, Dance like you've never been hurt. See? Doesn't that make more sense?

Gina Barreca

You've got to sing like you don't need the money. You've got to love like you'll never get hurt. You've got to dance like there's nobody watching. You've got to come from the heart, if you want it to work.

Susanna Clarke

Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching.

Satchel Paige

Live like you'll die tomorrow, work like you don't need the money, and dance like nobody's watching.

Bob Fosse

Work like you don't need money, Love like you've never been hurt, And dance like no one's watching. Dance is the only art of which we ourselves are the stuff of which it is made

Ted Shawn

May you always work like you don't need the money; May you always love like you've never been hurt; and May you always dance like there's nobody watching.

Jack Canfield

Sing like nobody can hear you, dance like nobody can see you, and love like you've never been hurt.

Dick Van Dyke

Sing like no one is listening. Love like you’ve never been hurt. Dance like nobody’s watching, and live like it’s heaven on earth.

Susanna Clarke

You've got to dance like nobody's watching, and love like it's never going to hurt.

Kathy Mattea

Go out in the world and work like money doesn't matter, sing as if no one is listening, love as if you have never been hurt, and dance as if no one is watching.

Victor Hugo

I don't dance like I used to, but I'm moving and I'll be doing my form of dance at Town Hall... I hit my limitations but I learn to work with what I've got.

Ben Vereen

Dance like it hurts. Love like you need money. Work when people are watching. -- Dogbert's Motto

Scott Adams

Meanwhile, I get to make an album. I feel like I've been very lucky. There is a guilt when I see people I know who work really hard, then I'm like, "Oh, I've got to do an interview today." I'm so appreciative of all of this, but it does feel like the bubble will burst at some point and it will all have been a dream.

Jessie Ware

It is important to go into work you would like to do. Then it doesn't seem like work. You sometimes feel it's almost too good to be true that someone will pay you for enjoying yourself. I've been very fortunate that my work led to useful drugs for a variety of serious illnesses. The thrill of seeing people get well who might otherwise have died of diseases like leukemia, kidney failure, and herpes virus encephalitis cannot be described in words.
