Marshall McLuhan
  • Societies have always been shaped more by the nature of the media by which men communicate than by the content of the communication.

  • Anyone who tries to make a distinction between education and entertainment doesn't know the first thing about either.

  • Advertising is an environmental striptease for a world of abundance.

  • Everybody experiences far more than he understands. Yet it is experience, rather than understanding, that influences behavior.

  • Mass transportation is doomed to failure in North America because a person's car is the only place where he can be alone and think.
