Night Television

Famous quotes containing the words night and/or television:

    Master, we have worked all night long but have caught nothing. Yet if you say so, I will let down the nets.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 5:5.

    Simon to Jesus.

    In full view of his television audience, he preached a new religion—or a new form of Christianity—based on faith in financial miracles and in a Heaven here on earth with a water slide and luxury hotels. It was a religion of celebrity and showmanship and fun, which made a mockery of all puritanical standards and all canons of good taste. Its standard was excess, and its doctrines were tolerance and freedom from accountability.
    New Yorker (April 23, 1990)
