Movement Quotes
-
I don't think there are any pure Africans of the African Americans, but the African part of our history was pretty much taken away from us during slavery, so the 60s gave us a chance, because of the civil rights movement, to kind of re-examine and make some sort of formal connection to our African-ness.
Herbie Hancock
-
God, it would never go away, this anger, this rage that was like the ceaseless movement of the spring winds through the desert, this knot in his guts, this splinter in his heart that shot a pain through him that eventually found its way into his lungs, then out of his mouth and into the open air, the sound making the whole world turn away from him. It would never go away, never, never, and there would never be any peace. Maybe he had it all wrong, maybe he wasn't a victim at all, not at all, because he had decided that this was the only thing that would ever be truly his, and so he clung to it, would cling to it forever.
Benjamin Alire Saenz
-
Since the design of the movement is paramount, shape, for me, should have no significance of itself; it merely makes movement evident. Therefore, the simplest, most customary, most unobtrusive forms suffice.
George Rickey
-
I know that one is able to win people far more by the spoken that by the written word, and that every great movement on this globe owes its rise to the great speakers and not to the great writers.
Adolf Hitler
-
The civil-rights movement was completely impossible to achieve. But look at what ordinary people were able to do because they were willing to sacrifice their lives to stay with it. They didn't expect a political process to respond to them. They made the political process respond to them. To say "It's so bad I won't bother" is to give up on your children and give up on your future.
Marian Wright Edelman
-
Let's start a movement - a movement of men who aren't afraid to stop violence against women.
Carlos Andres Gomez
-
I love to accent movement. The eye goes to where the white is – you know, the glove. And the feet, if you're dancing, you can put an exclamation point on your movement if it has a bit of light on it. So I wore the white socks. And for the design of the jacket, I would sit with the people who made the clothes and tell them where I wanted a button or a buckle or a design.
Michael Jackson
-
Change happens through movement and movement heals.
Joseph Pilates
-
My thing is to educate now that let's not do it. See everybody, whether they be red, black, yellow, white, as a human being. That's the movement for equality and justice especially against people of colour because they have been subject to racial slurs, God knows for how long.
Darren Sammy
-
Reform is born of need, not pity. No vital movement of the people has worked down, for good or evil; fermented, instead, carried up the heaving, cloggy mass.
Rebecca Harding Davis
-
If a movement is to have an impact it must belong to those who join it, not those who lead it.
Simon Sinek
-
A movement that seeks to advance only its own members is going to accomplish little
Cleve Jones
