Visual Light

Famous quotes containing the words visual and/or light:

“To write well, to have style ... is to paint. The master faculty of style is therefore the visual memory. If a writer does not see what he describes—countrysides and figures, movements and gestures—how could he have a style, that is originality?”
—Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)

“When I could not see the light with my blind eyes, I blamed not my eyes, but the sun.”
—Jerome (c. 340–420)
