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

    “no images of pastoral will,
    But fear, thirst, hunger, and huddled chill.”
    —James Vincent Cunningham (1911–1985)

    “As individuals and as a nation, we now suffer from social narcissism. The beloved Echo of our ancestors, the virgin America, has been abandoned. We have fallen in love with our own image, with images of our making, which turn out to be images of ourselves.”
    —Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    “I know no East or West, North or South, when it comes to my class fighting the battle for justice. If it is my fortune to live to see the industrial chain broken from every workingman’s child in America, and if then there is one black child in Africa in bondage, there shall I go.”
    —Mother Jones (1830–1930)

    “You had your breakfast in bed before,
    But you won’t have it there anymore.”
    —Irving Berlin (1888–1989)
