Famous quotes containing the words image and/or gallery:

    If the devil doesn’t exist and, therefore, man has created him, he has created him in his own image and likeness.
    Feodor Dostoyevsky (1821–1881)

    To a person uninstructed in natural history, his country or sea-side stroll is a walk through a gallery filled with wonderful works of art, nine-tenths of which have their faces turned to the wall. Teach him something of natural history, and you place in his hands a catalogue of those which are worth turning round.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
