Famous quotes containing the words talking and/or pictures:
“I wept as I remembered how often you and I
Had tired the sun with talking and sent him down the sky.”
—Callimachus (c.305–240 B.C.)
“I have no other pictures of the world apart from those which express evanescence, and callousness, vanity and anger, emptiness, or hideous useless hate. Everything has merely confirmed what I had seen and understood in my childhood: futile and sordid fits of rage, cries suddenly blanketed by the silence, shadows swallowed up for ever by the night.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
