Moving Water Quotes

• Nunca he visto un río que no me encantara. El agua en movimiento... tiene una vitalidad fascinante. Tiene fuerza, gracia y asociaciones. Tiene mil colores y mil formas, y sin embargo sigue leyes tan definidas que el arroyuelo más pequeño es una réplica exacta de un gran río.

  Roderick Haig-Brown

• I love moving water, I love ships, I love the sharp definition, the concentrated humanity, the sublime solitude of life at sea. The dangers of it only make present to us the peril inherent in all existence, which the stupid, ignorant, un-travelled land-worm never discovers; and the art of it, so mathematical, so exact, so rewarding to intelligence, appeals to courage and clears the mind of superstition, while filling it with humility and true religion.

  George Santayana

  Art, Stupid, Moving

• The Chinese word Li may therefore be understood as organic order, as distinct from mechanical or legal order, both of which go by the book. Li is the asymmetrical, nonrepetitive, and unregimented order which we find in the patterns of moving water, the form of trees and clouds, of frost crystals on the window, or the scattering of pebbles on beach sand.

• The heart is a river. The act of writing is the moving water that holds the banks apart, keeps the muscle of words flexing so that the reader can be carried along by this movement. To be given space and the chance to leave one's earthly world. Is there any greater freedom than this?

  Helen Humphreys

  Conmover, escribir, corazón

• La luz de la memoria, o más bien la luz que la memoria presta a las cosas, es la luz más pálida de todas. No sé muy bien si estoy soñando o recordando, si he vivido mi vida o la he soñado. Al igual que los sueños, la memoria me hace profundamente consciente de la irrealidad, de la evanescencia del mundo, una imagen fugaz en el agua en movimiento.

  Eugene Ionesco

• The smell of the sea, of kelp and fish and bitter moving water, rose stronger in my nostrils. It flooded my consciousness like an ancestral memory. The swells rose sluggishly and fell away, casting up dismal gleams between the boards of the pier. And the whole pier rose and fell in stiff and creaking mimicry, dancing its long slow dance of dissolution. I reached the end and saw no one, heard nothing but my footsteps and the creak of the beams, the slap of waves on the pilings. It was a fifteen-foot drop to the dim water. The nearest land ahead of me was Hawaii.

• Bright star, would I were stedfast as thou art--- Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night And watching, with eternal lids apart, Like nature's patient, sleepless Eremite, The moving waters at their priestlike task Of pure ablution round earth's human shores, Or gazing on the new soft-fallen mask Of snow upon the mountains and the moors--- No---yet still stedfast, still unchangeable, Pillowed upon my fair love's ripening breast, To feel for ever its soft fall and swell, Awake for ever in a sweet unrest, Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath, And so live ever---or else swoon in death.

  John Keats
