Famous quotes containing the word movements:
“The short lesson that comes out of long experience in political agitation is something like this: all the motive power in all of these movements is the instinct of religious feeling. All the obstruction comes from attempting to rely on anything else. Conciliation is the enemy.”
—John Jay Chapman (18621933)
“He sways his head from side to side, with movements like a snake;
And when you think hes half asleep, hes always wide awake.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“Spirit borrows from matter the perceptions on which it feeds and restores them to matter in the form of movements which it has stamped with its own freedom.”
—Henri Bergson (18591941)
