Learning to inhibit unwanted contractions of muscles that function without, or in spite of, our will, is the main task in coordinated action.

No matter how closely we look, it is difficult to find a mental act that can take place without the support of some physical function.

In order to recognize small changes in effort, the effort itself must first be reduced. More delicate and improved control of movement is possible only through the increase of sensitivity, through a greater ability to sense differences.

People confound, misuse, interchange thinking and speaking, not realizing that speaking is for communication and thinking is for action.

Movement is life. Life is a process. Improve the quality of the process and you improve the quality of life itself.

Nothing is permanent about our behavior patterns except our belief that they are so.

Movement is life; without movement life is unthinkable.
