“Popular culture is seductive; high culture is imperious.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“For those that love the world serve it in action,
Grow rich, popular and full of influence,

The struggle of the fly in marmalade.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“Cynicism makes things worse than they are in that it makes permanent the current condition, leaving us with no hope of transcending it. Idealism refuses to confront reality as it is but overlays it with sentimentality. What cynicism and idealism share in common is an acceptance of reality as it is but with a bad conscience.”
—Richard Stivers, U.S. sociologist, educator. The Culture of Cynicism: American Morality in Decline, ch. 1, Blackwell (1994)
