Famous quotes containing the word images:

    “We picked each other from afar and knew
    What hour of terror comes to test the soul,
    And in that terror’s name obeyed the call,
    And understood, what none have understood,
    Those images that waken in the blood.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Imagination could hardly do without metaphor, for imagination is, literally, the moving around in one’s mind of images, and such images tend commonly to be metaphoric. Creative minds, as we know, are rich in images and metaphors, and this is true in science and art alike. The difference between scientist and artist has little to do with the ways of the creative imagination; everything to do with the manner of demonstration and verification of what has been seen or imagined.”
    —Robert A. Nisbet (b. 1913)

    “Isn’t life a series of images that change as they repeat themselves?”
    —Andy Warhol (c. 1928–1987)
