Famous quotes containing the word movements:

    “The novel is not “a crazy quilt of bits”; it is a logical sequence of psychological events: the movements of stars may seem crazy to the simpleton, but wise men know the comets come back.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “He sways his head from side to side, with movements like a snake;
    And when you think he’s half asleep, he’s always wide awake.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “To write well, to have style ... is to paint. The master faculty of style is therefore the visual memory. If a writer does not see what he describes—countrysides and figures, movements and gestures—how could he have a style, that is originality?”
    —Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)
