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

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

    “Let us dismiss, as irrelevant to the poem per se, the circumstance ... which, in the first place, gave rise to the intention of composing a poem that should suit at once the popular and the critical taste.”
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    “I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than as a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.”
    —Henry David David (1817–1862)
