World Service Television

Famous quotes containing the words world, service and/or television:

    The curfew tolls the knell of parting day,
    The lowing herd wind slowly o’er the lea,
    The plowman homeward plods his weary way,
    And leaves the world to darkness and to me.
    Thomas Gray (1716–1771)

    In the service of Caesar, everything is legitimate.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

    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)
