Famous quotes containing the word images:

    The most ordinary word, when put into place, suddenly acquires brilliance. That is the brilliance with which your images must shine.
    Robert Bresson (b. 1907)

    The world is for thousands a freak show; the images flicker past and vanish; the impressions remain flat and unconnected in the soul. Thus they are easily led by the opinions of others, are content to let their impressions be shuffled and rearranged and evaluated differently.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

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