Famous quotes containing the words image and/or library:
“Power may be at the end of a gun, but sometimes its also at the end of the shadow or the image of a gun.”
—Jean Genet (19101986)
“That a famous library has been cursed by a woman is a matter of complete indifference to a famous library. Venerable and calm, with all its treasures safe locked within its breast, it sleeps complacently and will, so far as I am concerned, so sleep forever. Never will I wake these echoes, never will I ask for that hospitality again ...”
—Virginia Woolf (18821941)
