Target/television

Famous quotes containing the words target and/or television:

“But this we know, the obstacle that checked
And tripped the body, shot the spirit on
Further than target ever showed or shone.”

“Never before has a generation of parents faced such awesome competition with the mass media for their children’s attention. While parents tout the virtues of premarital virginity, drug-free living, nonviolent resolution of social conflict, or character over physical appearance, their values are daily challenged by television soaps, rock music lyrics, tabloid headlines, and movie scenes extolling the importance of physical appearance and conformity.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
