Famous quotes containing the word images:

    “Cultural expectations shade and color the images that parents- to-be form. The baby product ads, showing a woman serenely holding her child, looking blissfully and mysteriously contented, or the television parents, wisely and humorously solving problems, influence parents-to-be.”
    —Ellen Galinsky (20th century)

    “What images are these
    That turn dull-eyed away,
    Or shift Time’s filthy load,
    Straighten aged knees,
    Hesitate or stay?
    What heads shake or nod?”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Those images that yet
    Fresh images beget,
    That dolphin-torn, that gong-tormented sea.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
