1965 in Television/television Shows

Famous quotes containing the words television and/or shows:

    It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident. In the place of traditional, sometimes ancient childhood games that were still popular a generation ago, in the place of fantasy and make- believe play . . . today’s children have substituted television viewing and, most recently, video games.
    Marie Winn (20th century)

    ... the intellect, everywhere invasive, shows everywhere its shallowing effect.
    William James (1842–1910)
