Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or affairs:

    If we can learn ... to look at the ways in which various groups appropriate and use the mass-produced art of our culture ... we may well begin to understand that although the ideological power of contemporary cultural forms is enormous, indeed sometimes even frightening, that power is not yet all-pervasive, totally vigilant, or complete.
    Janice A. Radway (b. 1949)

    Blunders are an inescapable feature of war, because choice in military affairs lies generally between the bad and the worse.
