Moving

Famous quotes containing the word moving:

    Photographs may be more memorable than moving images because they are a neat slice of time, not a flow. Television is a stream of underselected images, each of which cancels its predecessor. Each still photograph is a privileged moment, turned into a slim object that one can keep and look at again.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    One fellow I was dating in medical school ... was a veterinarian and he wanted to get married. I said, but you’re going to be moving to Minneapolis, and he said, oh, you can quit and I’ll take care of you. I said, “Go.”
    Sylvia Beckman (b. c. 1931)

    Light-lashed, self-righteous, above moving snouts,
    the pigs’ eyes followed him, a cheerful stare,
    even to the sow that always ate her young—
    Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
