Movement

Famous quotes containing the word movement:

    What new thoughts are suggested by seeing a face of country quite familiar, in the rapid movement of the rail-road car!
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Every little movement has a meaning all its own.
    Otto Harbach (1873–1963)

    An actor rides in a bus or railroad train; he sees a movement and applies it to a new role. A woman in agony of spirit might turn her head just so; a man in deep humiliation probably would wring his hands in such a way. From straws like these, drawn from completely different sources, the fabric of a character may be built. The whole garment in which the actor hides himself is made of small externals of observation fitted to his conception of a role.
    Eleanor Robson Belmont (1878–1979)
