Famous quotes containing the word pictures:
“Men are more evanescent than pictures, yet one sorrows for lost friends, and pictures are my friends. I have none others. I am never long enough with men to attach myself to them; and whatever feelings of attachment I have are to material things.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
“I am big. It’s the pictures that got small.”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
“In some pictures of Provincetown the persons of the inhabitants are not drawn below the ankles, so much being supposed to be buried in the sand.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
