Medium

Famous quotes containing the word medium:

    It is a medium of entertainment which permits millions of people to listen to the same joke at the same time, and yet remain lonesome.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Life is amazing: and the teacher had better prepare himself to be a medium for that amazement.
    Edward Blishen (b. 1920)

    All propaganda or popularization involves a putting of the complex into the simple, but such a move is instantly deconstructive. For if the complex can be put into the simple, then it cannot be as complex as it seemed in the first place; and if the simple can be an adequate medium of such complexity, then it cannot after all be as simple as all that.
    Terry Eagleton (b. 1943)
