Famous quotes containing the word images:

    “It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past.... Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
    —George Steiner (b. 1929)

    “The mind loves the unknown. It loves images whose meaning is unknown, since the meaning of the mind itself is unknown.”
    —René Magritte (1898–1967)

    “How clean the sun when seen in its idea,
    Washed in the remotest cleanliness of a heaven
    That has expelled us and our images . . .
    The death of one god is the death of all.
    Let purple Phoebus lie in umber harvest,
    Let Phoebus slumber and die in autumn umber....”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
