Frank J. Wilstach, comp.  A Dictionary of Similes.  1916.
 
Move
 
  Moving constantly, like the spheres.
            —Anonymous		  1
Gently she moved in the calmness of beauty,
Moved as the bough to the light breeze of morning.
            —Arabian		  2
  Moving like heaven still in the self-same moving.
            —Phineas Fletcher		  3
A wizard wind did faintly move,
Like a whisper through a dream.
            —Owen Meredith		  4
  When everything moves equally, nothing moves apparently: as on a ship.
            —Blaise Pascal		  5
Moving, like a skeptic’s thought,
Out of nowhere into naught.
            —James Whitcomb Riley		  6
  Moved one like the finest eloquence.
            —Alexander Smith		  7
