Picture

Famous quotes containing the word picture:

    As a general truth, it is safe to say that any picture that produces a moral impression is a bad picture.
    Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)

    Burst into my narrow stall;
    Swing the picture on the wall;
    Run the rattling pages o’er;
    Scatter poems on the floor;
    Turn the poet out of door.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    To be motivated to sit at home and study, instead of going out and playing, children need a sense of themselves over time—they need to be able to picture themselves in the future.... If they can’t, then they’re simply reacting to daily events, responding to the needs of the moment—for pleasure, for affiliation, for acceptance.
    Stanley I. Greenspan (20th century)
