Moving

Famous quotes containing the word moving:

“If melodrama is the quintessence of drama, farce is the quintessence of theatre. Melodrama is written. A moving image of the world is provided by a writer. Farce is acted. The writer’s contribution seems not only absorbed but translated.... One cannot imagine melodrama being improvised. The improvised drama was pre-eminently farce.”
—Eric Bentley (b. 1916)

“People’s tongues are like grass, moving this way and that according to the direction of the winds.”
—Chinese proverb.

“Yet nightly pitch my moving tent,
A day’s march nearer home.”
—James Montgomery (1771–1854)
