Famous quotes containing the words images of, images, east and/or berlin:
“It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past.... Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
—George Steiner (b. 1929)

“From the mountains to the prairies,
To the oceans white with foam,
God bless America,
My home sweet home!”
