Famous quotes containing the words image and/or gallery:

    “Lear. Thou hast seen a farmer’s dog bark at a beggar?
    Gloucester. Ay, sir.
    Lear. And the creature run from the cur? There thou mightst behold the great image of authority: a dog’s obeyed in office.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “I should like to have seen a gallery of coronation beauties, at Westminster Abbey, confronted for a moment by this band of Island girls; their stiffness, formality, and affectation contrasted with the artless vivacity and unconcealed natural graces of these savage maidens. It would be the Venus de’ Medici placed beside a milliner’s doll.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
