Famous quotes containing the word image:

    The new electronic interdependence recreates the world in the image of a global village.
    Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    the focused beam
    folds all energy in:
    the image glares filling all space:
    the head falls and
    hangs and cannot wake itself.
    Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)

    The island dreams under the dawn
    And great boughs drop tranquillity;
    The peahens dance on a smooth lawn,
    A parrot sways upon a tree,
    Raging at his own image in the enamelled sea.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
