Famous quotes containing the words limiting and/or mass:
“O wily painter, limiting the scene
From a cacophony of dusty forms
To the one convulsion,”
—Thom Gunn (b. 1929)
“Commercial jazz, soap opera, pulp fiction, comic strips, the movies set the images, mannerisms, standards, and aims of the urban masses. In one way or another, everyone is equal before these cultural machines; like technology itself, the mass media are nearly universal in their incidence and appeal. They are a kind of common denominator, a kind of scheme for pre-scheduled, mass emotions.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–62)
