Motion

Famous quotes containing the word motion:

    “subways, rivered under streets
    and rivers . . . in the car

    of motion is the sound
    of other faces, also underground—”
    —Hart Crane (1899–1932)

    “No motion has she now, no force;
    She neither hears nor sees;
    Rolled round in earth’s diurnal course,
    With rocks, and stones, and trees.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    “I dunno what my 23 infantile years in America signify. I left as soon as motion was autarchic—I mean my motion.”
