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

    “No healthy man, in his secret heart, is content with his destiny. He is tortured by dreams and images as a child is tortured by the thought of a state of existence in which it would live in a candy store and have two stomachs.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    “The East is marvellously interesting for tracing our steps back. But for going forward, it is nothing. All it can hope for is to be fertilised by Europe, so that it can start on a new phase.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “I long to be out in the sun with no work to be done.”
    —Irving Berlin (1888–1989)
