Famous quotes containing the words gallery of, gallery and/or images:

    “I never can pass by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York without thinking of it not as a gallery of living portraits but as a cemetery of tax-deductible wealth.”
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)

    “To a person uninstructed in natural history, his country or sea-side stroll is a walk through a gallery filled with wonderful works of art, nine-tenths of which have their faces turned to the wall. Teach him something of natural history, and you place in his hands a catalogue of those which are worth turning round.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    “What images are these
    That turn dull-eyed away,
    Or shift Time’s filthy load,
    Straighten aged knees,
    Hesitate or stay?
    What heads shake or nod?”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
