Drone Fed

Famous quotes containing the words drone and/or fed:

“Television does not dominate or insist, as movies do. It is not sensational, but taken for granted. Insistence would destroy it, for its message is so dire that it relies on being the background drone that counters silence. For most of us, it is something turned on and off as we would the light. It is a service, not a luxury or a thing of choice.”
—David Thomson, U.S. film historian. America in the Dark: The Impact of Hollywood Films on American Culture, ch. 8, William Morrow (1977)

“They were as fed horses in the morning: every one neighed after his neighbour’s wife.”
—Bible: Hebrew Jeremiah, 5:8.

Referring to the corruption of morals in Jerusalem.
