Independent Living Movement

Famous quotes containing the words independent, living and/or movement:

    There are two kinds of timidity—timidity of mind, and timidity of the nerves; physical timidity, and moral timidity. Each is independent of the other. The body may be frightened and quake while the mind remains calm and bold, and vice versë. This is the key to many eccentricities of conduct. When both kinds meet in the same man he will be good for nothing all his life.
    Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)

    There is but one Paris and however hard living may be here, and if it became worse and harder even—the French air clears up the brain and does good—a world of good.
    Vincent Van Gogh (1853–1890)

    Later
    Some movement is reversed and the urgent masks
    Speed toward a totally unexpected end
    Like clocks out of control.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
