Famous quotes containing the words television and/or shows:

    “Television ... helps blur the distinction between framed and unframed reality. Whereas going to the movies necessarily entails leaving one’s ordinary surroundings, soap operas are in fact spatially inseparable from the rest of one’s life. In homes where television is on most of the time, they are also temporally integrated into one’s “real” life and, unlike the experience of going out in the evening to see a show, may not even interrupt its regular flow.”
    —Eviatar Zerubavel, U.S. sociologist, educator. The Fine Line: Making Distinctions in Everyday Life, ch. 5, University of Chicago Press (1991)

    “When we our betters see bearing our woes,
    We scarcely think our miseries our foes.
    Who alone suffers, suffers most i’ the mind,
    Leaving free things and happy shows behind.
    But then the mind much sufferance doth o’er skip,
    When grief hath mates, and bearing fellowship.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
