Actual Image

Famous quotes containing the words actual and/or image:

“A true account of the actual is the rarest poetry, for common sense always takes a hasty and superficial view.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The essence of the physicality of the most famous blonde in the world is a wholesome eroticism blurred a little round the edges by the fact she is not quite sure what eroticism is. This gives her her tentative luminosity and what makes her, somehow, always more like her own image in the mirror than she is like herself.”
—Angela Carter (1940–1992)
