Famous quotes containing the word images:
“The mind loves the unknown. It loves images whose meaning is unknown, since the meaning of the mind itself is unknown.”
—René Magritte (1898–1967)
“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)
“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)
