Picturing Quotes (page 40)

I'm convinced that no one can amount to a damn in the arts if he becomes sweetly reasonable, seeing all sides of a picture, forgiving all sins. Kurt Vonnegut
Virginia Woolf quote: "Tu i eu, i ea trecem i pierim; nimic nu dinuie; totul se..."
Tu i eu, i ea trecem i pierim; nimic nu dinuie; totul se schimb; n afar de cuvinte i pictur. Virginia Woolf
I mean now to try and see her as soon as I can: or perhaps, on second thoughts, I had better not; it is better I should behold her through the eyes of her lover. To my sight, perhaps, she would not appear as she now stands before me; and why should I destroy so sweet a picture? Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Klepp, however...must have given the cigarette girl a photo unbeknownst to me, because he became engaged to the snippety little thing and married her one day, because he wanted to have his picture back Gunter Grass
Just consider a child who, absorbed in play, forgets himself—this is the moment to take a snapshot; when you wait until he notices that you are taking a picture, his face congeals and freezes, showing his unnatural self-consciousness rather than his natural graciousness. Why do most people have that stereotyped expression on their faces whenever they are photographed? This expression stems from their concern with the impression they are going to leave on the onlooker. It is "cheese" that... Viktor E. Frankl
Charles Darwin quote: "Only picture to yourself a nice soft wife on a sofa with good..."
Only picture to yourself a nice soft wife on a sofa with good fire, & books & music. Charles Darwin
Wherever I go, whatever I do, I wonder where I am in my relationship to you, wherever you go, wherever you are, I watch that pretty life play out in pictures from afar John Mayer
I have no affinity for animals. I don’t hate animals and I would never hurt an animal; I just don’t actively care about them. When a coworker shows me cute pictures of her dog, I struggle to respond correctly, like an autistic person who has been taught to recognize human emotions from flash cards. In short, I am the worst. Tina Fey
Henry Ward Beecher quote: "Every writer dips his brush into his own soul, and paints his..."
Every writer dips his brush into his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures. Henry Ward Beecher
With your face and your beautiful eyes and the coversations with the little white lies and the faded picture of a beautiful lie you carry me from your car up the stairs, and I broke down crying was she worth this mess? After everything and that little black dress. After everything i must confess... I need you <3'':)-Taylor Swift Taylor Swift
Dr. Wyman preached a God I couldn’t quite see in my mind, and certainly couldn’t love. I dimly pictured some kind of Grandfather, who dealt out to bad people their awful “just deserts,” which I thought must be poisoned food at the end of delicious meals. John Hersey
Fun... human nature... does no one any harm... Regular as clockwork the old excuses came back into the alert, sad and dissatisfied brain--nothing ever matched the deep excitement of the regular desire. Men always failed you when it came to the act. She might just as well have been to the pictures. Graham Greene
He knew something was going to happen and his entire system was waiting on it. He thought it was going to be one of the supreme moments in life but apart from that, he didn't have the vaguest notion what it might be. He pictured himself, after it was over, as an entirely new man, with an even better personality than he had now. He sat there for about fifteen minutes and nothing happened. Flannery O'Connor
Abbie Hoffman quote: "Smoking dope and hanging up Che's picture is no more..."
Smoking dope and hanging up Che's picture is no more acommitment than drinking milk and collecting postage stamps. Abbie Hoffman
we disgust works of art by our meaninglessness, our diffuseness in time which lets us drift through three score years and ten without a quarter as much significance as a picture establishes instantaneously Rebecca West
