Famous quotes containing the word records:

    “My confessions are shameless. I confess, but do not repent. The fact is, my confessions are prompted, not by ethical motives, but intellectual. The confessions are to me the interesting records of a self-investigator.”
    —W.N.P. Barbellion (1889–1919)

    “In America, the photographer is not simply the person who records the past, but the one who invents it.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    “Although crowds gathered once if she but showed her face,
    And even old men’s eyes grew dim, this hand alone,
    Like some last courtier at a gypsy camping-place
    Babbling of fallen majesty, records what’s gone.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
