Famous quotes containing the word image:

    For through the painter must you see his skill,
    To find where your true image pictured lies,
    Which in my bosom’s shop is hanging still,
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Dark-heaving; boundless, endless, and sublime,
    The image of Eternity,—the throne
    Of the Invisible!
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    I have often thought that if photography were difficult in the true sense of the term—meaning that the creation of a simple photograph would entail as much time and effort as the production of a good watercolor or etching—there would be a vast improvement in total output. The sheer ease with which we can produce a superficial image often leads to creative disaster.
    Ansel Adams (1902–1984)
