Movements

Famous quotes containing the word movements:

    Spirit borrows from matter the perceptions on which it feeds and restores them to matter in the form of movements which it has stamped with its own freedom.
    Henri Bergson (1859–1941)

    The movements of the eyes express the perpetual and unconscious courtesy of the parties.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    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)
