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)
“Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven images of the Lord, thy God, nor of men who are his creatures.”
—Max Frisch (19111991)
“We picked each other from afar and knew
What hour of terror comes to test the soul,
And in that terrors name obeyed the call,
And understood, what none have understood,
Those images that waken in the blood.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
