Quotes About Images

Generational transmission of bias can be disrupted. We can stop passing hateful, destructive, and false beliefs to the next generation, but to do so we must be exceedingly intentional about all of the ways we influence our babies, toddlers, and young children. We have to think about the images they see in the magazines we read, the people we welcome into our homes, the ways we treat others who look different from us.

Now in order to tell the difference between good and evil, we have manufactured two images representing the extremes – representing the deepest black and the purest white – and we call them God and the Devil.

Mathis laughed ironically.

~ Shannon Purser

Hence the art director's content must complement the editor's content.
~ Steven Heller

He said the purpose of books was to permit us to exercise that faculty. Art, he said, was a controlled madness… He said books weren't made of themes, which you could write essays about, but of images that inserted themselves into your brain and replaced what you were seeing with your eyes.

He readied for the hand of the demon who rode him, held it tight until the nails broke the skin. He had already learned that sex conjured images in his head, and this time there were unbelievably vivid. He sensed that the man who possessed him wore the aspect of a demon like a garment.
