Famous quotes containing the word images:
“And images of self-confusednesses
Which hurt imaginations only see
And from this nothing seen, tells news of devils,
Which but expressions be of inward evils.”
—Fulke Greville (15541628)
“It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past.... Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
—George Steiner (b. 1929)
“The mind loves the unknown. It loves images whose meaning is unknown, since the meaning of the mind itself is unknown.”
—René Magritte (18981967)
