We've searched our database for all the quotes and captions related to Virgin Media. Here they are! All 18 of them:

If you spend any amount of time doing media analysis, it’s clear that the most frenzied moral panic surrounding young women’s sexuality comes from the mainstream media, which loves to report about how promiscuous girls are, whether they’re acting up on spring break, getting caught topless on camera, or catching all kinds of STIs. Unsurprisingly, these types of articles and stories generally fail to mention that women are attending college at the highest rates in history, and that we’re the majority of undergraduate and master’s students. Well-educated and socially engaged women just don’t make for good headlines, it seems.
Jessica Valenti (The Purity Myth: How America's Obsession with Virginity is Hurting Young Women)
Once someone tries a real extra virgin -- an adult or a child, anybody with taste buds -- they'll never go back to the fake kind. It's distinctive, complex, the freshest thing you've ever eaten. It makes you realize how rotten the other stuff is, literally rotten. But there has to be a first time. Somehow we have to get those first drops of real extra virgin oil into their mouths, to break them free from the habituation to bad oil, and from the brainwashing of advertising. There has to be some good oil left in the world for people to taste.
Tom Mueller (Extra Virginity: The Sublime and Scandalous World of Olive Oil)
Standing alone today demands even more courage and strength than it did in former cultures. From infancy, children have been programmed to perform. Rather than living from their own needs and feelings, they learn to assess situations in order to please others. Without an inner core of certainty grounded in their own musculature, they lack the inner resources to stand alone. Pummelled by mass media and peer group pressures, their identity may be utterly absorbed by collective stereotypes. In the absence of adequate rites of passage, ad-men become the high priests of an initiation into the addictions of consumerism.
Marion Woodman (The Pregnant Virgin: A Process of Psychological Transformation)
You fail if you don’t try. If you try and you fail, yes, you’ll have a few articles saying you’ve failed at something. But if you look at the history of American entrepreneurs, one thing I do know about them: An awful lot of them have tried and failed in the past and gone on to great things.” —RICHARD BRANSON, FOUNDER OF THE VIRGIN GROUP
The Staff of Entrepreneur Media, Inc (Start Your Own Business: The Only Startup Book You'll Ever Need)
They were, and still are, largely spared the public shame of this, because the world's media preferred the simplication of "Croat' and "Serb" and only mentioned religion when discussing "the Muslims." But the triad of terms "Croat", "Serb", and "Muslim is unequal and misleading, in that it equates two nationalities and one religion. (The same blunder is made in a different way in coverage of Iraq, with the "Sunni-Shia-Kurd" trilateral.) ...It would have been far more accurate if the press and television had reported that "today the Orthodox Christian forces resumed their bombardment of Sarajevo," or "yesterday the Catholic militia succeeded in collapsing the Stari Most." But confessional terminology was reserved only for "Muslims," even as their murderers went to all the trouble of distinguishing themself by wearing large Orthodox crosses over their bandoliers, or by taping portraits of the Virgin Mary to their rifle butts.
Christopher Hitchens (God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything)
We thought we should list all legendary animals," Nigel explained – apparently without realizing it – why they had visa problems. "Can't hurt to ask. Dragons are real, right?" "Elves say they are." Jane desperately wanted a scotch but if she had one, Hal couldn't resist needing one, and she didn't want go back down that road. "This list is suicidal if you're not willing to defend yourself. This isn't Earth, where you can sit in your Jeep and take picture of lions, or go sit in the middle of a bunch of apes. Most of these things will peel open an SUV like it’s a can of sardines and make a snack of everything inside." "It would be amusing to watch but it would end badly for you," Hal murmured. It was hard to tell if he was making a play on his previous statement or if he didn't realize he was repeating himself. "The list is a starting point." Nigel leaned forward, face lighting up with inner fire. "To get us in the door. What we want is all of Elfhome. To revel in all that it has to offer. The virgin iron wood forest. The beautiful immortal elves. The strange and magical beasts. And the humans that live peacefully side by side with all this." Jane shook her head, trying to resist the power of a TV host beaming at her one-on-one. "Don't snow job me." "I've seen this kind of shit before," Taggart said with quiet intensity. "When a country goes dark, its means someone has something it's trying to hide. And often what they're hiding is horrible war crimes like mass graves and attempted genocide. Someone is keeping the media out of Pittsburgh.

INTERNATIONAL LAW WAS CREATED DURING THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION BECAUSE a group of Mexicans—and one African American—gang-raped and murdered two teenaged girls in Houston, Texas.1 The crime made history in another way: It led to the most death sentences handed out for a single crime in Texas since 1949.2 Do you even know about this case? The only reason the media eventually admitted that the lead rapist, Jose Ernesto Medellin, was an illegal alien from Mexico was to try to overturn his conviction on the grounds that he had not been informed of his right, as a Mexican citizen, to confer with the Mexican consulate. Journalists have an irritating tendency to skimp on detail when reporting crimes by immigrants, a practice that will not be followed here. One summer night in June 1993, fourteen-year-old Jennifer Ertman and Elizabeth Peña, who had just turned sixteen, were returning from a pool party, and decided to take a shortcut through a park to make their 11:30 p.m. curfew. They encountered a group of Hispanic men, who were in the process of discussing “gang etiquette,” such as not complaining if other members talked about having sex with your mother.3 The girls ran away, but Medellin grabbed Jennifer and began ripping her clothes off. Hearing her screams, Elizabeth came back to help her friend. For more than an hour, the five Hispanics and one black man raped the teens, vaginally, anally, and orally—“every way you can assault a human being,” as the prosecutor put it.4 The girls were beaten, kicked, and stomped, their teeth knocked out and their ribs broken. One of the Hispanic men told Medellin’s fourteen-year-old brother to “get some,” so he raped one of the girls, too. But when it was time to kill the girls, Medellin said his brother was “too small to watch” and dragged the girls into the woods.5 There, the girls were forced to kneel on the ground and a belt or shoelace was looped around their necks. Then a man on each side pulled on the cord as hard as he could. The men strangling Jennifer pulled so hard they broke the belt. Medellin later complained that “the bitch wouldn’t die.” When it was done, he repeatedly stomped on the girls’ necks, to make sure they were dead.6 At trial, Medellin’s sister-in-law testified that shortly after the gruesome murders, Medellin was laughing about it, saying they’d “had some fun with some girls” and boasting that he had “virgin blood” on his underpants.7 It’s difficult to understand a culture where such an orgy of cruelty is bragged about at all, but especially in front of women.
Ann Coulter (¡Adios, America!: The Left's Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole)
A Nazarene, born of a virgin, in the town of Bethlehem, from the tribe of Judah, a Son of David. It did not matter what these chortling fools thought, the odds on fulfilling those prophecies alone were only possible for one man: Messiah. Artabanus was right about the prophet Daniel’s influence. The story of King Nebuchadnezzar II and his dream of a mighty statue of kingdoms to come was fresh on the minds of all Jews in the region. The dream image had foretold the kingdoms of Greece, Media-Persia, and now, Rome. But what was of more interest to Eleazar was the stone that was cut from the mountain of God without human hands. It hit the last kingdom of the statue and broke them all to pieces.   And in the days of those kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that shall never be destroyed. It shall break in pieces all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, and it shall stand forever. But the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.

A New Yorker by birth is David Karp, the child prodigy who at age 21, in 2007, founded Tumblr, whose headquarters are located just one block east of Hunch. The son of a composer and a science teacher, at 14 Karp began working as an intern in an online animation company; at 15, tired of traditional school, he continued to study at home alone, learning, among other things, Japanese; then he became the chief technology officer of the Internet site UrbanBaby and at 17 he went to Tokyo for five months by himself. In 2006, UrbanBaby was bought by CNET, and Karp used his share of proceeds to establish Tumblr, a blogging platform with elements of social networking that allows its users to follow other bloggers. Tumblr allows users to build a collection of content according to their own tastes and interests. Easy to use, with a format of short entries to be enriched with photos and videos, Tumblr has quickly gained many followers among the creative community as well as the public at large. Today it is home to nearly 70 million blogs, including those of Lady Gaga and Barack Obama, with a total audience of 140 million users. At 26, Karp is leading a company with over 100 employees, valued at more than $800 million, with shareholders of the caliber of Virgin Group’s Richard Branson. He defines Tumblr as new media, as opposed to technology, and seeks to attract non-traditional ads, inviting brands to create awareness and desire in their ads, rather than just trying to capture intent. Karp has already received several acquisition offers from other media groups, but he has always refused because he thinks big: he wants to reach billions, not millions of users and one day be in a position to acquire rather than be acquired. Meanwhile, in order to grow he is convinced that New York City, the capital of media and advertising, is the right city.[47]

I was nineteen years old, a virgin, going with this woman’s son, this big strange woman who was married to a Lutheran minister in New Hampshire and pretended she was gentile and had this son, by her first husband, this total fool of a son who ran the hero-sandwich concession at Harvard Business School and whom for one moment one December in New Hampshire I said—as much out of politeness as anything else—that I wanted to marry.
Nora Ephron (Crazy Salad and Scribble Scribble: Some Things About Women and Notes on Media)
—¿De dónde viene ese ruido? —preguntó Pritkin. —Es lo que Augustine entiende por una broma. Me embrujó el vestido —le expliqué. —¡Quítatelo! —me ordenó Pritkin. —¿Qué? —Puedo utilizar el encantamiento para confundir a las protecciones. —Pero es que no llevo nada debajo. —¿Nada? —Creo que las bragas. —Al menos eso creía. Después del día que había tenido, ya no estaba tan segura. —¿Ayudaría en algo recordarte que ya te he visto? —¡Una vez! ¡Y hace mucho tiempo! ¡Y había muy poca luz! —Dame lo que tu virginal pudor se pueda permitir. —Dime porque lo necesitas otra vez. —Oh, para… ¡Dame el puto vestido y te lo mostraré! Antes de que me diera tiempo a responder, extrajo un cuchillo, lo sumergió y me rajó lo que me pareció media falda. —¿Por qué en tus planes siempre tengo que desnudarme?

I truly believe that the drift toward blaming feminism is the most telling shift in this national dialogue. Blaming feminism, women's equality, for rape reveals the crux of the issue. Because it's not concern that's driving media coverage of women's drinking too much--it's sexism.
Jessica Valenti (The Purity Myth: How America's Obsession with Virginity is Hurting Young Women)
To lovers out there …. Some people's standards are their downfall and the reason for their depression and unhappy life. They would prefer to date or marry horrible, cold, heartless, selfish, mean, vile, abusive, toxic and disrespectful individuals because these individuals don't use social media, don't go clubbing, don't drink, have lot of money or are virgins.
De philosopher DJ Kyos
Sólo soporto los sueños como un todo virginal, como un misterio. Son algo tan extraño que uno los va comprendiendo muy lentamente. Los sueños de los otros sólo puedo entenderlos de un modo aislado. Uno los toma con cautela y repugnancia. Ay del loco que los interpreta inmediatamente; los pierde y nunca más los vuelve a tener; se marchitan antes de haber brotado. Pero tampoco hay que ir amontonando sueños que jamás han tenido que ver los unos con los otros. Su sangre les viene de su irradiación en la realidad. Su transformación en algo verdadero y real lo es todo en el sueño, pero ésta tiene lugar de un modo distinto a como se la imaginan normalmente los intérpretes. El sueño tiene que dar vida a la realidad penetrando en ella, de todas las maneras posibles, desde ésta y desde aquella dirección, y sobre todo desde las más insospechadas. Como una bandada de pájaros, el sueño se posa aquí y allá; levanta el vuelo y da media vuelta; desaparece y apenas ha desaparecido, vuelve a oscurecer la luz del sol. Lo impalpable del sueño es lo más palpable de él; sin embargo, tiene forma, pero tiene que ganársela él mismo porque se escurre en las formas de la realidad y no se le puede dar forma desde fuera. Son imprevisibles los daños que pueden causar los sueños interpretados. Esta destrucción permanece oculta, pero ¡cuán sensible es un sueños No se ve sangre alguna en el hacha del matarife cuando arremete contra la tela de araña, pero ¡lo que ha destruido!... y jamás vuelve a tejerse lo mismo. Muy pocos sospechan el carácter único e irrepetible de todo sueño, de qué otra manera si no podrían desnudarle y convertirlo en lugar común... Tal vez el único que ha tratado el sueño con el respeto que merece es Klee, como lo más inviolable que tiene lugar en el ser humano.

To be honest, I don't know if believers really believe it. Maybe suicide bombers - the ones who kill themselves in the hope of being rewarded for their actions after death - maybe they do. But I'm not sure one should put too much stock in the self-awareness of suicide bombers. I think it's possible that what suicide bombers crave, like most people (as social media has revealed), is identity, registered as significance among their peers. Or to put it another way: a suicide bomber does indeed kill themselves for the rewards granted to them in the life after death. A real life after death - not the imaginary one where there are virgins in heaven, but an actual future where their names are venerated by where their names are venerated by others after their limbs have long since stopped flying through the air.
