In Elisabeth Bergmann's case it is just the opposite: she saw her passion for dancing as the opportunity to get to know new worlds, to teach others how to express themselves through dance and how to know others through their dance and finally, she went at bringing diverse worlds together by using a common language that does not need translation: the dance.
Bergmann took her passion for dance, mixed with her love of teaching and traveling and gave the world the opportunity to see and feel differently. The population of Trinidad and Tobago was just happening to help her in her undertaking to see the world through its diversity.
Bergmann counts herself among those fortunate ones that benefited form having a dance teacher that not only convinced her of his own genuine passion for dance, but also encouraged her to put all her energy into a passion for this kind of art. It results that she was did not only learn how to focus on her own person, which for most artists is enough in the development of their carriers, but she also found in herself the resources to express this passion differently.

One of the essential things that differentiates human beings form the animal kingdom is art and Bergmann's passion for art appears to have driven her throughout her life and guided her into the choices she has made about her carrier.

Both emotions and gods must be respected, according to Racine's overall dramatic conception. Neither reason nor passion is 'bad' merely an excess or an imbalance of one at the expense of the other. Similarly, Swift's dry, droll tone suggests his love of reason, wit, and his arch view of social niceties and conventions for which people have a great deal of emotional affection. But Swift is not advocating a
The character Ahab's pursuit for Moby Dick is similar to society's pursuit for Hester's as a symbol of their passion for (and against) sinfulness. For Ahab, Moby Dick is a desire that has turned into a passion because its elusiveness; his not being able to capture the great whale became a source of frustration from him.
