Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or traditions:

    “A society that has made “nostalgia” a marketable commodity on the cultural exchange quickly repudiates the suggestion that life in the past was in any important way better than life today.”
    —Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)

    “... the more we recruit from immigrants who bring no personal traditions with them, the more America is going to ignore the things of the spirit. No one whose consuming desire is either for food or for motor-cars is going to care about culture, or even know what it is.”
    —Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
