Thought Catalog

“
You hear stories, though,” Muffy says. “About these lonely or somehow disturbed people who’ve had only the TV all their lives, their parents or whomever started them right off by plunking them down in front of the set, and as they get older the TV comes to be their whole emotional world, it’s all they have, and it becomes in a way their whole way of defining themselves as existents, with a distinct identity, that they’re outside the set, and everything else is inside the set.
David Foster Wallace, “Little Expressionless Animals” in Girl With Curious Hair (1989)
