Famous quotes containing the words additional and/or images:

    Don’t you think I’ve had enough excitement for one evening, without the additional thrill of a strange man making love to me?
    John L. Balderston (1899–1954)

    It was at a particular moment in the history of my own rages that I saw the Western world conditioned by the images of Marx, Darwin and Freud; and Marx, Darwin and Freud are the three most crashing bores of the Western world. The simplistic popularization of their ideas has thrust our world into a mental straitjacket from which we can only escape by the most anarchic violence.
    William Golding (b. 1911)
