Thomas/television

Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or television:

    Tangled was I in Love’s snare.
    Oppressed with pain, torment with care;
    Of grief right sure, of joy quite bare,
    Clean in despair by cruelty.
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    Television is an excellent system when one has nothing to lose, as is the case with a nomadic and rootless country like the United States, but in Europe the affect of television is that of a bulldozer which reduces culture to the lowest possible denominator.
    Marc Fumaroli (b. 1932)
