Famous quotes containing the words public and/or image:
“The zoo cannot but disappoint. The public purpose of zoos is to offer visitors the opportunity of looking at animals. Yet nowhere in a zoo can a stranger encounter the look of an animal. At the most, the animal’s gaze flickers and passes on. They look sideways. They look blindly beyond.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
““Power may be at the end of a gun,” but sometimes it’s also at the end of the shadow or the image of a gun.”
—Jean Genet (1910–1986)
