Painted Portraits

Famous quotes containing the words painted and/or portraits:

    The sleeping and the dead
    Are but as pictures; ‘tis the eye of childhood
    That fears a painted devil.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    You that would judge me do not judge alone
    This book or that, come to this hallowed place
    Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;
    Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace;
    Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
    And say my glory was I had such friends.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
