Famous quotes containing the words film, television and/or occidental:

    “You should look straight at a film; that’s the only way to see one. Film is not the art of scholars but of illiterates.”
    —Werner Herzog (b. 1942)

    “Cultural expectations shade and color the images that parents- to-be form. The baby product ads, showing a woman serenely holding her child, looking blissfully and mysteriously contented, or the television parents, wisely and humorously solving problems, influence parents-to-be.”
    —Ellen Galinsky (20th century)

    “There is a struggle between the Oriental and the Occidental in every nation; some who would be forever contemplating the sun, and some who are hastening toward the sunset. The former class says to the latter, When you have reached the sunset, you will be no nearer to the sun. To which the latter replies, But we so prolong the day.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
