Thomas/television

Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or television:

    Trouth is trayed where craft is in ure;
    But though ye have had my hertes cure,
    Trow ye I dote withoute ending?
    What no, perdy!
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    Photographs may be more memorable than moving images because they are a neat slice of time, not a flow. Television is a stream of underselected images, each of which cancels its predecessor. Each still photograph is a privileged moment, turned into a slim object that one can keep and look at again.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
