Famous quotes containing the word images:

    “Ideas are refined and multiplied in the commerce of minds. In their splendor, images effect a very simple communion of souls.”
    —Gaston Bachelard (1884–1962)

    “Disappointment, when it involves neither shame nor loss, is as good as success; for it supplies as many images to the mind, and as many topics to the tongue.”
    —Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    “The base of all artistic genius is the power of conceiving humanity in a new, striking, rejoicing way, of putting a happy world of its own creation in place of the meaner world of common days, of generating around itself an atmosphere with a novel power of refraction, selecting, transforming, recombining the images it transmits, according to the choice of the imaginative intellect. In exercising this power, painting and poetry have a choice of subject almost unlimited.”
    —Walter Pater (1839–1894)
