Famous quotes containing the word images:

    “It was at a particular moment in the history of my own rages that I saw the Western world conditioned by the images of Marx, Darwin and Freud; and Marx, Darwin and Freud are the three most crashing bores of the Western world. The simplistic popularization of their ideas has thrust our world into a mental straitjacket from which we can only escape by the most anarchic violence.”
    —William Golding (b. 1911)

    “Style a tablet at every noon time, Lady,
    With bold images of a timid boy!”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “How clean the sun when seen in its idea,
    Washed in the remotest cleanliness of a heaven
    That has expelled us and our images . . .
    The death of one god is the death of all.
    Let purple Phoebus lie in umber harvest,
    Let Phoebus slumber and die in autumn umber....”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
