Famous quotes containing the words photo and/or gallery:

    I was
    the girl of the chain letter,
    the girl full of talk of coffins and keyholes,
    the one of the telephone bills,
    the wrinkled photo and the lost connections....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    I never can pass by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York without thinking of it not as a gallery of living portraits but as a cemetery of tax-deductible wealth.
    Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
