Picture

Famous quotes containing the word picture:

    To the attentive eye, each moment of the year has its own beauty, and in the same field, it beholds, every hour, a picture which was never seen before, and which shall never be seen again.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Eloquence is a painting of thought; and thus those who, after having painted it, add something more, make a picture instead of a portrait.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    The real trouble about women is that they must always go on trying to adapt themselves to men’s theories of women, as they always have done. When a woman is thoroughly herself, she is being what her type of man wants her to be. When a woman is hysterical it’s because she doesn’t quite know what to be, which pattern to follow, which man’s picture of woman to live up to.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
