    William Purkey, Mark Twain, and Satchel Paige are among many attributed with saying
    The phrase:
    "You've gotta' dance like there's nobody watching,
    Love like you'll never be hurt,
    Sing like there's nobody listening"

    Although Purkey is the source of this quotation, it has been attributed to many others.
    Lines from it were included in the song Come From the Heart written by Susannah Clark and Richard Leigh in 1987:
    You got to sing like you don't need the money
    Love like you'll never get hurt
    You got to dance like nobody's watching'
    It's got to come from the heart if you want it to work.


    William Purkey takes credit for "most" of the wording, but admits many people have said similar phrases. Which person is most likely to have started this saying?
