Best Quotes about Vision

TV -- chewing gum for the eyes.

Wright, Frank Lloyd

Three levels of organizational vision: 1. The Do-able 2. The Conceivable 3. The Previously Unthinkable.

Man cannot aspire if he looked down; if he rise, he must look up.

Smiles, Samuel

Vision looks inwards and becomes duty. Vision looks outwards and becomes aspiration. Vision looks upwards and becomes faith.

Wise, Stephen S.

We can put television in its proper light by supposing that Gutenberg's great invention had been directed at printing only comic books.

Hutchins, Robert M.

Watching old movies is like spending an evening with those people next door. They bore us, and we wouldn't go out of our way to see them; we drop in on them because they're so close. If it took some effort to see old movies, we might try to find out which were the good ones, and if people saw only the good ones maybe they would still respect old movies. As it is, people sit and watch movies that audiences walked out on thirty years ago. Like Lot's wife, we are tempted to take another look, attracted not by evil but by something that seems much more shameful -- our own innocence.

Kael, Pauline

Gerber, Michael E.

10.

There is nothing more mysterious than a TV set left on in an empty room. It is even stranger than a man talking to himself or a woman standing dreaming at her stove. It is as if another planet is communicating with you.

Baudrillard, Jean

11.

For light I go directly to the Source of light, not to any of the reflections.

Pilgrim, Peace

12.

The world values the seer above all men, and has always done so. Nay, it values all men in proportion as they partake of the character of seers. The Elgin Marbles and a decision of John Marshall are valued for the same reason. What we feel in them is a painstaking submission to facts beyond the author's control, and to ideas imposed upon him by his vision. So with Beethoven's Symphonies, with Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations -- with any conceivable output of the human mind of which you approve. You love them because you say, These things were not made, they were seen.

Chapman, John Jay

13.

Vision -- It reaches beyond the thing that is, into the conception of what can be. Imagination gives you the picture. Vision gives you the impulse to make the picture your own.

Collier, Robert

14.

Vision without action is a daydream. Action with without vision is a nightmare.

Proverb, Japanese

15.

Where there is no vision, the people perish. [Proverbs 29:18]

Bible

16.

Some men see things as they are and say, Why? I of dream things that never were, and say, Why not?

Shaw, George Bernard

17.

What every man needs, regardless of his job or the kind of work he is doing, is a vision of what his place is and may be. He needs an objective and a purpose. He needs a feeling and a belief that he has some worthwhile thing to do. What this is no one can tell him. It must be his own creation. Its success will be measured by the nature of his vision, what he has done to equip himself, and how well he has performed along the line of its development.

Dodge, Joseph M.

18.

Your successful past will block your visions of the future.

Barker, Joel A.

19.

The only limits are, as always, those of vision.

Broughton, James

20.

I made a pact with myself a long time ago: Never watch anything stupider than you. It's helped me a lot.I made a pact with myself a long time ago: Never watch anything stupider than you. It's helped me a lot.

Midler, Bette

21.

Our first journey is to find that special place for us.

Nightingale, Earl

22.

There are lone figures armed only with ideas, sometimes with just one idea, who blast away whole epochs in which we are enwrapped like mummies. Some are powerful enough to resurrect the dead. Some steal on us unawares and put a spell over us which it takes centuries to throw off. Some put a curse on us, for our stupidity and inertia, and then it seems as if God himself were unable to lift it.

Miller, Henry

23.

Man watches his history on the screen with apathy and an occasional passing flicker of horror or indignation.

O'Brien, Conor Cruise

24.

Objects close to the eye shut out much larger objects on the horizon; and splendors born only of the earth eclipse the stars. So it is with people who sometimes cover up the entire disc of eternity with a dollar, and so quench transcendent glories with a little shining dust.

Chapin, Edwin Hubbel

25.

Most of us have jobs that are too small for our spirits.

Terkel, Studs

26.

The great networks are there to prove that ideas can be canned like spaghetti. If everything ends up by tasting like everything else, is that not the evidence that it has been properly cooked?

Raphael, Frederic

27.

There's a good deal in common between the mind's eye and the TV screen, and though the TV set has all too often been the boobtube, it could be, it can be, the box of dreams.

Guin, Ursula K. Le

28.

Television hangs on the questionable theory that whatever happens anywhere should be sensed everywhere. If everyone is going to be able to see everything, in the long run all sights may lose whatever rarity value they once possessed, and it may well turn out that people, being able to see and hear practically everything, will be specially interested in almost nothing.

White, Elwyn Brooks

29.

One eye sees, the other feels.

Klee, Paul

30.

I have nothing new to teach the world. Truth and Non-violence are as old as the hills. All I have done is to try experiments in both on as vast a scale as I could.

Gandhi, Mahatma

31.

Nine-tenths of our sickness can be prevented by right thinking plus right hygiene -- nine-tenths of it!

Miller, Henry

32.

What is a television apparatus to man, who has only to shut his eyes to see the most inaccessible regions of the seen and the never seen, who has only to imagine in order to pierce through walls and cause all the planetary Baghdad's of his dreams to rise from the dust.

Dali, Salvador

33.

No vision and you perish; No Ideal, and you're lost; Your heart must ever cherish Some faith at any cost. Some hope, some dream to cling to, Some rainbow in the sky, Some melody to sing to, Some service that is high.

Autermont, Harriet Du

34.

No man sees far, most see no farther than their noses.

Carlyle, Thomas

35.

The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring this endeavor will light our bounty and all who serve it, and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.

Kennedy, John F.

36.

Create a vision and never let the environment, other people's beliefs, or the limits of what has been done in the past shape your decisions. Ignore conventional wisdom.

Robbins, Anthony

37.

The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasn't there something reassuring about it! -- that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one another's eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atoms -- nothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss?

Oates, Joyce Carol

38.

You don't need an explanation for everything, Recognize that there are such things as miracles -- events for which there are no ready explanations. Later knowledge may explain those events quite easily.

Browne, Harry

39.

Television, despite its enormous presence, turns out to have added pitifully few lines to the communal memory.

Kaplan, Justin

40.

The smallest bookstore still contains more ideas of worth than have been presented in the entire history of television.

Ross, Andrew

41.

In the theater, while you recognized that you were looking at a house, it was a house in quotation marks. On screen, the quotation marks tend to be blotted out by the camera.

Miller, Arthur

42.

Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars.

Kasem, Casey

43.

Television is an invention that permits you to be entertained in your Living room by people you wouldn't have in your house.

Frost, David

44.

So shine on through these days we have to fill.

John, Elton

45.

Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakens.

Jung, Carl

46.

I got sick of turning on the TV and seeing my face.

Fox, Michael J.

47.

The riders in a race do not stop when they reach the goal. There is a little finishing canter before coming to a standstill. There is time to hear the kind voices of friends and say to oneself, The work is done.

Holmes Jr., Oliver Wendell

48.

TV is a fickle business. I'm only good for the length of my contract.

Brokaw, Tom

49.

If I have seen further... it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.

Newton, Sir Isaac
