Famous quotes containing the words cable and/or television:

    To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.
    Douglass Cross (b. 1920)

    It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident.

    Marie Winn (20th century)
