Famous quotes containing the word culture:

    “Asia is rich in people, rich in culture and rich in resources. It is also rich in trouble.”
    —Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)

    “The best hopes of any community rest upon that class of its gifted young men who are not encumbered with large possessions.... I now speak of extensive scholarship and ripe culture in science and art.... It is not large possessions, it is large expectations, or rather large hopes, that stimulate the ambition of the young.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “Our culture has become something that is completely and utterly in love with its parent. It’s become a notion of boredom that is bought and sold, where nothing will happen except that people will become more and more terrified of tomorrow, because the new continues to look old, and the old will always look cute.”
    —Malcolm McLaren (b. 1946)
