Famous quotes containing the words television and/or series:
“Photographs may be more memorable than moving images because they are a neat slice of time, not a flow. Television is a stream of underselected images, each of which cancels its predecessor. Each still photograph is a privileged moment, turned into a slim object that one can keep and look at again.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“Galileo, with an operaglass, discovered a more splendid series of celestial phenomena than anyone since.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
