Famous quotes containing the word image:

    As every pool reflects the image of the sun, so every thought and thing restores us an image and creature of the supreme Good. The universe is perforated by a million channels for his activity. All things mount and mount.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Thine eyes shall see the light of distant skies:
    Yet, Cole! thy heart shall bear to Europe’s strand
    A living image of our own bright land,
    Such as upon thy glorious canvas lies;
    William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    I think that Richard Nixon will go down in history as a true folk hero, who struck a vital blow to the whole diseased concept of the revered image and gave the American virtue of irreverence and skepticism back to the people.
    William Burroughs (b. 1914)
