Tv Quotes

“There is so much diversity in Indie films and books already. Saying there is a lack of Asians in films or in television is not accurate. It is out there, but not so much on the big screen. Rather than saying let's make more big studio Asian American films, let's say, let's bring more and highlight more Asian American films - indie or big studio out prominently in the press and media so there are more different Asian voices heard. - The Asian American Experience Anthology By Kailin Gow”

“This is what comes from the wrong kind of attentiveness. People get brain fade. This is because they've forgotten how to listen and look as children. They've forgotten how to collect data. In the psychic sense a forest fire on TV is on a lower plane than a ten-second spot for Automatic Dishwasher All. The commercial has deeper waves, deeper emanations. But we have reversed the relative significance of these things. This is why people's eyes, ears, brains and nervous systems have grown weary. It's a simple case of misuse.”
― Don DeLillo, White Noise

“What do you hope girls take away from watching [Agent Carter]?
I would hope that young girls can see that they don’t have to sacrifice their femininity to be taken seriously in the workplace. But also they don’t have to rely on their physicality or their appearance; that it’s just as important, if not a lot more so, to be able to use their intelligence, their wit, their humor and their warmth to be able to get where they want to and to achieve their goals in life.”
― Hayley Atwell

― De philosopher DJ Kyos

“David Simon: Everybody has an expectation that much of American television is about redemption and about affirmation. We were trying to make a show that was basically an argument of dissent. It was political dissent. It was saying our systems are not functioning. Our policies are incorrect. We're not going to find a way out of this unless we stand back and take stock and turn one hundred eighty degrees from what we've been doing, particularly in regard to the drug war and inequality that we were depicting.”
― Jonathan Abrams, All The Pieces Matter

“Pak zapne televizi, běží tam nějaký seriál, znáte to, skuteční lidé, co předstírají, že jsou falešní lidé s vymyšlenými problémy, a na to se dívají skuteční lidé, co zapomenou na své skutečné problémy.”
― Chuck Palahniuk, Choke

“The television was on. It had been on for hours. Years. It was there. TV on demand, a great freedom. Hadn’t Burroughs said there was more freedom today than ever before. Wasn’t that like saying things were more like today than they’ve ever been.”
― Lynne Tillman, The Complete Madame Realism and Other Stories

“If your priority is a cinema experience in your own home then you should buy a large screen television, if it is good sleep and health then you should buy a small screen television.”

“This was my world: a world of truly irrational behavior. We spend our way into the poorhouse. We buy giant TVs and iPads. Our children wear nice clothes thanks to high-interest credit cards and payday loans. We purchase homes we don't need, refinance them for mare spending money, and declare bankruptcy, often leaving them full of garbage in our wake. Thrift is inimical to our being. We spend to pretend that we're upper-class. And when the dust clears--when bankruptcy hits or a family member bails us out of our stupidity--there's nothing left over. Nothing for the kids' college tuition, no investment to grow our wealth, no rainy-day fund if someone loses her job. We know we shouldn't spend like this. Sometimes we beat ourselves up over it, but we do it anyway.”
― J. D. Vance

“anything can be a drug if you love it.”
― Sam Sax, Madness

“I watch CNN every night, but never afterward think much about anything I see--even the election, as stupid as it is. I've come to loathe most sports, which I used to love--a loss I attribute to having seen the same thing over and over again too many times. Only death-row stories and sumo wrestling (narrated in Japanese) will keep me at the TV longer than ten minutes. My bedside table, as I've said, has novels and biographies I've read thirty pages into but can't tell you much about.”
― Richard Ford, The Lay of the Land

“LLEGANDO HACIA LA LUZ

Nací el día
Pensé:
¿Que es?
¿Que fue?
Y
¿Y si?

Me transformé el día
Mi ego se rompió,
Y todo lo superficial, material
Cosas que importaban
Para mí antes,
De repente cesó
De importar.

Realmente llegué a ser
El día que ya no me importaba
Lo que el mundo pensaba de mí,
Sólo en mis pensamientos para
Cambiar el mundo.”
― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem
