«A rádio não é o que era, mas nunca o foi realmente»

«Radio survived TV's rise albeit in a whole new incarnation, because it served a convenient role in our daily lives and because it helped us believe in the American myths of mobility, individuality, and can-do savvy. Radio isn't what it used to be, but it never really was. Despite its troubles, radio is as much about the future as it is about the past. That future lies where. Todd Storz, Hunter Hancock, Hal Jackson, Cousin Brucie, Jean Shepherd, Bob Fass, Tom Donahue, Lee Abrams, and so many others found their inspiration - in the voices of those who open their souls into a microphone, and in the imaginations of those who feel compelled to listen.» (Fisher, 2007: 310) 

«In a nation of lonely people, when we hear music that moves us, or a political argument that sways us, or simply another human voice that tells us a story, we find company.» (313)
