Famous quotes containing the word movement:

    —Mary Anderson (1872–1964)

    “Failure or success seem to have been allotted to men by their stars. But they retain the power of wriggling, of fighting with their star or against it, and in the whole universe the only really interesting movement is this wriggle.”
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    “A movement is only composed of people moving. To feel its warmth and motion around us is the end as well as the means.”
