Famous quotes containing the word image:
“An image of its state;
The wings half spread for flight,
The breast thrust out in pride
Whether to play, or to ride
Those winds that clamour of approaching night.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“If the study of his images
Is the study of man, this image of Saturday,
This Italian symbol, this Southern landscape, is like
A waking, as in images we awake,
Within the very object that we seek,
Participants of its being.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“Dark-heaving; boundless, endless, and sublime,
The image of Eternity,—the throne
Of the Invisible!”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
