Famous quotes containing the word images:

    TV gives everyone an image, but radio gives birth to a million images in a million brains.
    Peggy Noonan (b. 1950)

    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)

    It is not the literal past, the “facts” of history, that shape us, but images of the past embodied in language.
    Brian Friel (b. 1929)
