Quote question

I apologize if this has been discussed here before. I'm a librarian, not a Nietzsche scholar, and one of my patrons has asked where this passage, quoted by Joseph Campbell, appears:
"The Cosmic Dancer does not rest heavily in a single spot, but gaily, lightly, turns and leaps from one position to another..."
Did Nietzsche really mention the Cosmic Dancer anywhere? I haven't found it. Thanks for any help with this.
