Famous quotes containing the words popular culture, popular and/or culture:

    “Popular culture is seductive; high culture is imperious.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Party action should follow, not precede the creation of a dominant popular sentiment.”
    —J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)

    “The anorexic prefigures this culture in rather a poetic fashion by trying to keep it at bay. He refuses lack. He says: I lack nothing, therefore I shall not eat. With the overweight person, it is the opposite: he refuses fullness, repletion. He says, I lack everything, so I will eat anything at all. The anorexic staves off lack by emptiness, the overweight person staves off fullness by excess. Both are homeopathic final solutions, solutions by extermination.”
    —Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
