Aladdin in his most intoxicated moments would never have dreamed of asking his [djinn] for [a polaroid] ... It's utterly new in concept and appearance, utilizing an utterly revolutionary flash system, an utterly revolutionary viewing system, utterly revolutionary electronics, and utterly revolutionary film structure.
Edwin Land
Image
The angel is actually the message himself. His appearance is the message that heaven is intensely concerned with us, and that God cares for us like a father for his children.
H. C. Moolenburgh
Image
Trust arises from the mind's instinctive feeling after fixed realities, after the substance of every shadow, the base of all appearance, the everlasting amid change.
James Martineau
Image
There must be a certain look of availability in the women I photograph. I think the woman who gives the appearance of being available is sexually much more exciting than a woman who's completely distant. This sense of availability I find erotic.
Helmut Newton
Image
Style is not neutral it gives moral directions.
Martin Amis
Image
I go back to Robert Reich and his appearance on [George] Stephanopoulos' show. The Democrat Party has not been in this bad a shape since the 1920s.
Rush Limbaugh
Image
Truth does less good in the world than its appearances do harm.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Image
Underneath the shifting appearances of the world as perceived by our unreliable senses, is there, or is there not, a bedrock of objective reality?
Hans Christian von Baeyer
Image
Oaths and curses are a proof of a most heroic courage, at least in appearance, which answers the same end.
Mary Collyer
Image
In civilized society external advantages make us more respected. A man with a good coat upon his back meets with a better reception than he who has a bad one. You may analyze this and say, What is there in it? But that will avail you nothing, for it is a part of a general system.
Samuel Johnson
Image
My appearance is talking and I like what it is saying.
Georgette Mosbacher
Image
To keep up appearances, I stomp my room and slam the door.
Laurie Halse Anderson
Image
A painter paints the appearance of things, not their objective correctness, in fact he creates new appearances of things.
Ernst Ludwig Kirchner
Image
Against specious appearances we must set clear convictions, bright and ready for use. When death appears as an evil, we ought immediately to remember that evils are things to be avoided, but death is inevitable.
Epictetus
Image
Some dishes are of such indisputable excellence that their appearance alone is capable of arousing a level-headed man's degustatory powers. All those who, when presented with such a dish, show neither the rush of desire, nor the radiance of ecstasy, may justly be deemed unworthy of the honors of the sitting, and its related delights.
Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
Image
We are sad at home and blame the weather and the ugliness of the buildings, but on the tropical island we learn that the state of the skies and the appearance of our dwellings can never on their own underwrite our joy nor condemn us to misery.
Alain de Botton
Image
Fate, however, is to all appearance more unavoidable than unexpected.
Plutarch
Image
In every walk of life each man puts on a personality and outward appearance so as to look what he wants to be thought in fact you might say that society is entirely made up of assumed personalities.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Image
It makes life very simple actually. You could be giving a TV interview in howling gale and it no longer matters.
William Hague
Image
Modesty is a valuable merit ... in people who have no other, and the appearance of it is extremely useful to those who have.
Ada Leverson
Image
An appearance of delicacy, and even fragility, is almost essential to beauty.
Edmund Burke
Image
For me nature is not landscape, but the dynamism of visual forces, an event rather than an appearance. These forces can only be tackled by treating color and form as ultimate identities, freeing them from all descriptive or functional roles.
Bridget Riley
Image
It is true that women tend to be more identified with their bodies because in this crazy world, both men and women measure women's value as human beings in relationship to their physical appearance.
Andrew Cohen
Image
The photographic image has great possibilities. The magical photograph attempts to go beyond the immediate context of the recorded experience into the realm of the indefinable. The photographer as magician is acutely aware of the multiplicity of associations submerged in the appearance of the objective world.
