Radio Quotes
Radio, which was a much better medium than television will ever be, was easy and pleasant to listen to. Your mind filled automatically with images. (TV host, Dick Cavett)
Radio is the most intimate and socially personal medium in the world. (Harry Von Zell, announcer for George Burns and Gracie Allen)
Radio is the theater of the mind; television is the theater of the mindless. (Steve Allen, first host of the “Tonight Show”.
Basically, radio hasn't changed over the years. Despite all the technical improvements, it still boils down to a man or a woman and a microphone, playing music, sharing stories, talking about issues - communicating with an audience. (Casey Kasem, Iconic Radio Deejay)
Those of us who grew up on Radio, came to look upon it as a great friend. It put us to sleep at night while listening to the Whistler, and it woke us up in the morning. On snowy winter days it informed us when school was going to be cancelled, leading to a great gathering on the hill with friends, for sledding. It even gave us good wishes on our birthday. Facebook does that now, but I still prefer the warmth of glowing tubes. They were far brighter and more personal than the unending streams of Twits, Tweets, and Views from Facebook and similar sites. (Bill Russo, writer and former Disc Jockey)
