Famous quotes containing the word television:

    “What is a television apparatus to man, who has only to shut his eyes to see the most inaccessible regions of the seen and the never seen, who has only to imagine in order to pierce through walls and cause all the planetary Baghdads of his dreams to rise from the dust.”
    —Salvador Dali (1904–1989)

    “The television critic, whatever his pretensions, does not labour in the same vineyard as those he criticizes; his grapes are all sour.”
    —Frederic Raphael (b. 1931)
